Araxis Merge overview

Araxis Merge is the two- and three-way visual file comparison/merging and folder synchronization application. Use it to compare, understand and combine different versions of source code, Web pages and other text files, or even text copied and pasted from another application (e.g., Pages or Microsoft Word). Merge integrates with Time Machine, so you can compare older versions of files.

Merge is a compelling choice for software developers, lawyers, product release managers, Web designers and other professionals who work with multiple revisions of text files, including ASCII, MBCS and Unicode files. Merge integrates with many version control (VC) and software configuration management (SCM) systems (e.g. Subversion and Perforce) that allow a third-party comparison/merging tool to be specified.

For legal professionals: instantly identify every change by copying text from different contract drafts being edited in another application (such as Microsoft Word) and pasting it directly into a file comparison window. Many more features.

What’s new in version 2023.5849

Updated on Feb 28 2023

Enhancements:
  • In the central pane of file comparisons, inserted blocks now use the foreground and background colours for inserted text rather than potentially blended colours as before; likewise, removed blocks always use the removed text colours. This change improves clarity and reduces visual clutter.
  • A optional confirmation dialog can now be shown before files are deleted from a folder comparison.
  • The keyboard shortcut for the folder comparison Delete Selected command has been changed from Delete to Cmd+⌫. This change makes it less easy to invoke the command accidentally; it also better aligns Merge with macOS Finder.
  • File and folder path entry fields without focus now elide a portion of long paths.
  • File and folder path entry fields now dim (to indicate that they cannot be edited) when they display a title rather than a filename.
  • Folder comparison columns can now be sized to their content by double-clicking a column divider in the header of the results list.
  • Text comparison merging buttons are no longer shown for merging into a read-only file.
  • SVG files now open as text, rather than as images that cannot be rendered by macOS.
  • Instructions for integrating Merge with Android Studio and various JetBrains IDEs have been added. The existing instructions for integrating with JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA and PhpStorm have also been updated.
  • The Command-Line Reference has been completely reworked.
  • When invoked with the -h option, the command-line compare utility now opens the Command-Line Reference in a web browser.
  • New -readonlyN and -readonly options have been added to command-line compare utility to force some or all panes in a comparison to be read-only.
  • The toolbar icons in the documentation have been updated.
  • Various dialogs have been updated to use base localization; this simplifies localization going forward. Minor differences in the layout of these windows are expected, but otherwise there should be no user-visible effect.
  • The subset of the OpenJDK Java Runtime Environment bundled with Merge has been upgraded to the Adoptium Eclipse Temurin OpenJDK Temurin-17.0.5+8.
  • The Merge major version number has been updated to 2023 to reflect the year of release. Copyright notices have been updated accordingly.
Defects fixed:
  • Comparison history lists now always open with the top row visible.
  • In the central pane of file comparisons, inserted and removed blocks of text (and their line numbers) now use the appropriate font styles.
  • An AppleScript error no longer occurs when a double quotation mark occurs within a single-quoted title argument to the command-line compare utility.
  • The read-only indicator for a comparison panel is now shown when that panel has been set as read-only via the AppleScript API.
  • The Standard Edition of Merge now correctly displays only two comparison panes when launched from the command-line with more than two folders specified.
  • It is no longer possible to reorder columns in preference tables.
  • The decimal point character (.) is now used as the separator character for numeric comparison input fields in the preferences, regardless of locale.

Would give it 5 stars except it's very pricey. But if you need it, there's no better merge software than this. I tried all of the others, and they were not catching everything. This was the only app that worked perfectly. A lifesaver.
