Comparing the Current and Last File Revisions

You can compare the latest file open in Visual Studio and its immediate ancestor in the Dimensions repository:

Select a file in Solution Explorer, and select File | Source Control | Compare with Latest. The Merge tool opens and displays the line-by-line differences between the file revision open in Visual Studio and its ancestor in the Dimensions repository.

See the Dimensions or the Merge tool’s online help.
