When I compare 2 large files
I used winmerge
It is a great tool that can find the delta between 2 files
In my case
Each of 2 files nearly contains 3000 lines
And there are some lines ONLY contain changes
Any Way to make identical lines in both files not to be shown when compare?
And show ONLY lines that have deltas?
To can inspect only DELTA lines and minimize scrolling overhead hover too long vertical files comparison result
16.0 x64 of WinMerge you can show only rows that differ by Ctrl D keyboard shortcut which is the same as menu: View -> Context difference -> Switch all rows.
You can then use WinMerge's compare and merge functions to resolve the conflicts and save the merged result file. Click File → Open Conflict File, and use the Open dialog to select the conflict file in your file system.
When selecting a file or folder, hit select right next to the filter textfield to select a filter. Then hit new, select a filename and adjust the filter by the above lines. After saving, you may have to refresh the filter page by closing and opening it again. Select your new filter and voila.
Binary ComparisonWinMerge can detect whether files are in text or binary format. When you launch a file compare operation on binary files, WinMerge opens each file in the binary file editor.
In version 2.16 you can go to menu View - Diff Context and select 0 lines. This will only make visible the different lines in 2 files, and hide the rest.
