Compare Refactoring Changes

The Refactor Compare Viewer dialog lets you compare refactoring changes between local files or folders with their corresponding repository items or item paths. You can use the Synchronizer view to select conflicting changes either for local name and local path or repository name and repository path before committing the changes to the repository.

To compare a refactoring change from the Synchronizer view

  1. In the Synchronizer view, right-click a refactored file or folder and select Compare Refactoring Changes from the shortcut menu.

    The Refactor Compare Viewer dialog appears. The left pane shows the local path of the file or folder and the right pane shows the repository path of the file or folder. Changes are identified by enclosing rectangles.

  2. (Optional) Use the copy-from-right-to-left toolbar button to get the path or name change from the repository to the local file or folder.
  3. (Optional) Click OK to make a local change.

    You have compared refactoring changes.
