Beyond Compare v2

Now this app really rocks!

Been using it to maintain regtweaks/install scripts from multiple uA builds, in perfect sync (with required differences).

Beyond Compare

Beyond Compare is a powerful time-saving utility for comparing files and folders on your Windows system.

Use it to manage source code, keep folders in sync, compare program output, and validate copies of your data. Beyond Compare can create a snapshot of a live directory structure, and compare it against the live copy at a later date.

Beyond Compare helps you analyze differences in detail and carefully reconcile them. It commands a wide range of file and text operations, as well as script commands for automating tasks.

compare text files

compare folders, zip archives, ftp sites

update websites

merge code changes

compare program output

and more

This is the program I used to do my old nLite comparisons. Really awesome tool, indeed.

WinMerge is comparable (no pun intended)...and it's free/open source.

I use SyncbackSE, it is a backup/Syncronize program and very powerful. There is a useful freeware version too www.2brightsparks.com

BeyondCompare and WinMerge allow you to view the changes in text files/scripts in a side-by-side view. It's useful with new code releases to see what was changed/added/updated.

For backup directory sync I've alwasy used XXCopy.
