Compare file and folder versions

DataGrip allows you to examine the differences between two revisions of a file or a folder, or between their current local copy and the repository version. The differences are displayed in the Differences viewer.

Compare a modified file with its repository version

  1. Open the Commit tool window Alt+0.

  2. Locate the required file in a changelist and do one of the following:

    • Select the file and click diff icon on the toolbar or press Ctrl+D

    • Double-click the file

  3. The diff view opens where changes to the file are highlighted:
