FAQ
- When should I use word vs line diff?
- Use line diff for code or logs; word diff for prose edits; character diff for typos in short strings.
- What does ignore whitespace do?
- Leading, trailing, and repeated internal spaces are normalized before comparing.
- Can I compare files?
- Yes. Use the import buttons on each panel to load local text files into A and B.
- Side-by-side vs unified?
- Side-by-side shows two columns; unified merges changes into a single stream like git diff.
