Beyond Compare is a great tool for comparing files and directories, and is invaluable for cleaning up. V5 can even show the differences between every tab in spreadsheet files 👀! There's also a bunch of other types of compare tools. Standard edition is $35, Pro $70 (which I haven't needed)

I just learned that you can ignore file structure and then you can see that the only differences between folders is dot files.

I'm a happy customer👍

Since y'all liked 🔀🦒 #Mergiraf so much (a syntax-aware #git #merge driver that solves many conflicts automatically that git's built-in merge strategies can't), go check out ≏🤩 #Difftastic too! It's a syntax-aware #diff tool that produces finer grained, much easier to read output than classic #GNU #diffutils or #BSD diff. No more decoding "@@ -5,6 +5,7 @@"! Integrates nicely with #git as well.
