with the xdocdiffplugin you even can compare word, excel, powerpoint, pdf and some more files.Īfter dead of original project it was taken over by several forks, including winmerge 2011 and winmerge jp. winmerge can compare both folders and files, presenting differences in a visual text format that is easy to understand and handle.

# Copy HEAD versions of changed files to temp folderĬat $list | xargs -0 git archive -prefix=HEAD/ $V | tar xf -C $O # (changes made to these links will be made to originals) # Create links to changed files inside temp folder Many thanks for your scripts! Here is a version of the shell script that doesn't require python.

To sum things up: yes, I know that not being able to do everything in Eclipse sucks a bit, but hopefully the Git tools for Eclipse will catch up soon - I'm hoping that having the history offline and not having to worry about renames, as well as the whole idea of decentralized versioning systems pays for this nuisance for now (and I'm certain that when the Eclipse plugin for Git catches up it'll be much better). It's a bit annoying that it's such a big number, but I believe that the other choices were worse (the hash would seem totally random for someone seeing it, and basing it on the number of commits wouldn't work with history rewriting). The last thing worth mentioning is that the Pydev releases don't have such a nice unique id as the one that was available with subversion anymore, and it now contains the commit time (%ct in the log format).

Git commit -amend (change last commit message)Īnd some of the commands I had to discover how to use in the msysgit bash are: Git log -n 6 -format="%ct %Cgreen%aN%Creset %s" The commands I use most (using the msysgit Bash) are: Git config format.pretty "%h %ct %ad %Cgreen%aN%Creset %s" '-target-directory='+sys.argv], shell=True) I wanted to create links to the files (so that I could edit them on WinMerge and have the original changed), so, I ended up creating a gitddpy.py to create the link (not sure why git prompt was crashing when using the shell for that - so, this was the solution that worked for me). d/bin/WinMerge/WinMergeU.exe //r //u //wr //dl WorkingCopy $O/b $O/a d/bin/Python261/python.exe /c/Program\ Files/Git/bin/gitddpy.py $list $O/b/Ĭat $list | xargs -0 git archive -prefix=a/ $V | /d/bin/bin-1.0/tar.exe xf -C $O # Note that it must be executed at the root of the git repository. # Compares the current differences in winmerge with links to original files. The script is below if anyone wants to use it (note that it must be run in the msysgit bash - although it should probably work on Linux too, with another diff viewer) A part of my modus operandi is making a review of all the changes before doing a commit - and editing some things there, so, based on this link, I've created a script - which I called gitdd - that will create a directory structure with the HEAD and links to the changed files so that one can change those files in a diff viewer (in this case, WinMerge). The thing I missed most was the synchronize view. In the meanwhile, I'm using the command line (with the msysgit bash). I'm finding it the hard way that unfortunately its eclipse integration is still not ready for prime time - it's missing some basic things such as a synchronize view, and I've had some bugs for it to mark the changed files in the package explorer (so, I'm waiting until it matures a bit to give it another try). In case it was missed, Pydev is now on Git :) There's a new post with instructions for configuring git at:
