Directory comparison and file differencing tool
Changes is a directory comparison and file differencing tool designed for Mac. It offers a great interface and a text comparison view that allows users to easily find the differences and changes between two text files.
For those who work with code regularly, Changes provides a convenient way to check for changes and ensure everything is correct. The text comparison view displays two versions of the same text side by side, making it easy to pick up on differences. Users can choose to merge either the change from the document on the left or the right, saving them the hassle of rewriting or copying and pasting.
One of the standout features of Changes is its integration support for popular text editors like BBEdit, TextWrangler, TextMate, and Xcode. This means users can continue working with their favorite text editor while using Changes to find differences.
While Changes is a handy tool for detecting and changing differences in text files, it is worth noting that being at version 1.0, it can still be a little unstable at times. However, overall, Changes provides a valuable solution for programmers and anyone who needs to compare and merge text files.
