Tortoise SVN: compare two directories (instead of files or revisions)

You can compare two revisions or files with Tortoise SVN. Is there also a way to compare two directories?

I have two directories containing source code. 90 percent of the code is identical. Now I'm going to store identical code in a plugin since duplicate code is bad. Tortoise Diff would be perfect for this if there was a way to compare two directories.

How can I achieve this? If it isn't possible with Tortoise, do you have other ideas / tools in mind for this purpose?

Solution

  • Not sure about Tortoise, but if you're running Windows I recommend WinMerge.
