Visual Differ compares side-by-side folders and files using colors to visually show differences. From the Folder view, it’s possible to make operations on folders and files like copying or deleting. It’s possible to quickly compare directories by choosing base folders from the context menu. Using the File Filter feature is possible to hide from visualization-specific files like .git, .svn directories, or the omnipresent.DS_Store files.
