KAHLYM/folder-comparison

Repository files navigation

This extension provides the ability to compare two folders within Visual Studio Code.

Features

There is one simple feature; compare two folders.

Make a Folder Comparison

  1. From the file explorer view, right click on a folder and click "Select for Compare"
  2. From the file explorer view, right click on a folder and click "Compare with Selected Folder"
  3. View the comparison from the new explorer view named "FOLDER COMPARISON"

Visual Example

example

This folder comparison functionality is designed to integrate seamlessly with the file comparison functionality that exists in Visual Studio Code. Although the right-click folder comparison menu options are named and positioned similar to the file comparison menu options, they do not interfere with one another. This means that a file comparison and a folder comparison can be made independently, and a file cannot be compared to a folder and vice-versa.
