Compare by content without resync
Posted: 2021-06-11, 14:15 UTC
Hi,
I would like to be able to compare text file contents without applying any block matching/synchronization.
I often need to compare dumps of values in text format, line by line, where some values at the same position may be different between the 2 files.
Currently TC tries to match blocks, which messes up the alignment later, whereas I just need to compare the same line numbers in each file.
If there are few mismatches I can do resync manually, line by line, but it's not practical when there are a lot of them, or I need to redo the comparison.
Is it possible to add a checkbox for this in the Comapre Contents window?
Thanks!
