Diff Merge
Merging files, directories, and versions
To include or exclude contributor panes (Windows)

To include or exclude contributor panes (Windows)

About this task

By default, Diff Merge considers all contributors when it makes a comparison. You can exclude a contributor pane from the comparison.

Procedure

Click Edit > Properties to open the Properties window.
In the Contributors included in comparison/merge pane, do one of the following steps:
- To exclude a contributor from the comparison, clear the check box that corresponds to that contributor.
- To include a contributor that was excluded previously, set its check box.

Results

The first contributor in the list is the base contributor. If you are merging, the last contributor in the list is the to-version contributor.

If you are comparing elements and you make any changes to the listing, Diff Merge restarts the comparison. If you are merging, you cannot change which contributors are included in or excluded from the merge. (The check boxes and buttons are unavailable.)
