Comparing File Versions
VCS-specific integrations enable you to compare your local copy of a file with the versions stored in the repository.PyCharm suggests several options:
- Compare your local copy with the repository version, to which you have last synchronized
- If somebody else has committed changes since your last update, compare your local copy with newest version
- Compare your local version with any repository version of a file.
For some VCS, it is possible to compare with a branch version. The differences display in the Differences viewer.
