Comparing and Merging › Compare Two Versions

Compare Two Versions

You can compare any two versions of an item.

To compare two versions

1. Navigate to the item that has versions you want to compare.
2. Select two versions, right-click one of the versions, and select Compare from the shortcut menu.

   The compare tool appears and displays the differences between the two versions.

   • The external compare tool appears if you invoked the compare from the Explorer tree and if you configured an external comparison tool in Preferences.
   • The default Eclipse compare/merge tool appears if you invoked the compare from the workspace.
   • The Compare tool uses the local file content and the local path from the file system for an R-tagged file.
