Diff/patch sofware for Windows.

Post by Bouke »

Currently I'm using TortoiseSVN to patch my files, but I'm not quite satisfied with this program. It's full of flaws and bugs. Does anybody have advice on good other software I could use?

I'm looking for a program which can create diff-files and also patch files with a diff-file. Thank you :).

cygwin comes with the standard unix-style diff/patch programs...

Okey I'll try... but aren't there any good Windows programs out there?

And oh... I'm also looking for a good SVN program since Tortoise messes up my shell!!

The commandline version for windows is very handy:

winmerge (sourceforge project, just look on tehre for it) has the ability to create diff files i believe. No idea if it can exploit them though. probably can.
Might want to take a look.

WinMerge wouldn't work and CygWin isn't very handy to use... isn't there a good GUI windows diff-program? :roll:
