P4Merge: Changes at a Glance
Our visual merge tool for Helix Core (P4Merge) tracks and compares the effects of past and pending work for branches and individual files. This free side-by-side file comparison tool is used and loved by developers and designers to visualize merges, obtain comprehensive file history, and compare a broad range of image files.
See Your Merges
View differences between file versions and resolve conflicts quickly. P4Merge is highly configurable, letting you:
- Highlight and edit differences in text files.
- Include or ignore line endings and white spaces.
- Recognize line-ending conventions for Windows, Mac, and Unix.
