We’re starting out with an extension to kick off the experiment. So, with increased interest and multiple viable solutions, what would the right implementation look like for Visual Studio users?
#COMPARE TWO NOTEPAD FILES HOW TO#
They all perform basic comparison between files rather well, and we think it’s time we figured out how to design this feature for Visual Studio.Ī feature request on the Visual Studio Developer Community is also now gaining steam asking for file comparison, so please vote and comment if you agree. An interesting thing about the various implementations is that they offer slightly different features and with different UI paradigms. Various editors and IDEs offer this feature today, but Visual Studio has required the use of extensions such as VS Diff to provide the feature. There is no straightforward way in Visual Studio to do those things today, but in this month’s experiment we’re going to change that. And again, sometimes comparing our local changes to previous versions from our Git commit history. Sometimes, even comparing the content of the clipboard with a file on disk. As developers, we often need to compare two files to find the differences.
