Compare and Merge Sources

You may need to compare your current source version with any archived version, or review and merge changes made by a co-worker during an emergency session.

To support this, the Compare functionality has been added.

After clicking the Compare with Revision menu option, a list of all known versions of the source will be displayed, sorted by version number with the latest version at the top.

Select a source version from the list and click the Compare button. The comparison result will be displayed in the source editor.

Use the panel on the right side of the editor to change the source, then save your changes by clicking the Save button or pressing Ctrl+S.

Compare with Production

To help you verify changes, a compare with production feature has been added. This allows you to easily compare your current source version with the version currently in production.
