FileDiffs Plugin

Shows diffs between the current file, or selection(s) in the current file, and clipboard, another file, or unsaved changes. Can be configured to show diffs in an external diff tool

Help!

Check the wiki for more tips

Installation

  1. Using Package Control, install "FileDiffs"

Or:

  1. Open the Sublime Text Packages folder

    • OS X: ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/
    • Windows: %APPDATA%/Sublime Text 3/Packages/
    • Linux: ~/.Sublime Text 3/Packages/ or ~/.config/sublime-text-3/Packages

  2. clone this repo

  3. Install keymaps for the commands (see Example.sublime-keymap for my preferred keys)

Sublime Text 2

  1. Open the Sublime Text 2 Packages folder

  2. clone this repo, but use the st2 branch

    git clone -b st2 [email protected]:colinta/SublimeFileDiffs

Add External Diff Tool (optional)

(IMPORTANT: You might need to make a symlink (e.g. in /usr/local/bin) pointing to the command line tool of your external diff tool)

  1. Preferences > Package Settings > FileDiffs > Settings - Default

  2. Uncomment one of the examples or write you own command to open external diff tool.

Commands

file_diff_menu: Shows a menu to select one of the file_diff commands. If you use the bindings in Example.sublime-keymap, this is bound to ctrl+shift+d.

The rest of the commands do not need to be bound (accessible from the menu):

file_diff_clipboard: Shows the diff of the current file or selection(s) and the clipboard (the clipboard is considered the "new" file unless reverse is True)

file_diff_selections: Shows the diff of the first and second selected regions. The file_diff_menu command checks for exactly two regions selected, otherwise it doesn't display this command.

file_diff_saved: Shows the diff of the current file or selection(s) and the saved file.

file_diff_file: Shows the diff of the current file or selection(s) and a file that is in the current project.

file_diff_tab: Shows the diff of the current file or selection(s) and an open file (aka a file that has a tab).
