Machine Setup: SourceGear DiffMerge
Another tool I always have on my development machine in SourceGear’s free DiffMerge tool (http://sourcegear.com/diffmerge/)
Not only is this the diff/merge tool from Visual Studio or SourceGear Vault but it also adds some very nice and useful context menus to Windows Explorer for being able to quickly compare two files (or folders):
This comes in very handy and since it has a great price (free!) it is one of the tools that gets added to my machine at the beginning.
