Is there a utility to compare folders visually?
Is there some Lion-compatible Finder-like utility that will do the following?
- Display the list of files from two different folders, in parallel columns.
- Preferably display, too, such other attributes as you select (kind, date modified, size).
- indicate visually the differences between the two folders: --
(a) which files in the first folder are not in the second, and vice versa;
(b) which files are in both folders but are newer in the first folder than in the second folder, and vice versa?
Obviously if a utility can list the contents of two folders next to one another, you could go through the two lists file-by-file. But that's not what I'm asking about.
Please note that I am not asking about comparing and showing the differences between two files. Thus so far as I can tell, the following apps do not do what I'm asking about:
- Araxis Merge
- Kaleidoscope
- Path Finder
Path Finder, at least, can display two folders in parallel columns; but so far as I can tell, there's no way to get it to indicate what I ask in #3, above.
