If there is no such open source software, I am considering creating one on CodePlex to provide this functionality. I was interested in finding a similar solution, however instead of directory hierarchy, an XML element hierarchy. There is a hierarchical diff which is very accurate, user-friendly and clear. In KDiff3, you can do a diff/merge of entire directories. Here is a bit of clarification of the functionality that would turn my error-prone, tedious manual job into a 1-minute simpler task (and potential to automate): Developers WinMerge is an open source project, which means that the program is maintained and developed by volunteers. Support If you need support, look at our support page for more information how you can get it. Is such a tool available? That is very useful? For free? WinMerge 2.16.22 - latest stable version WinMerge 2.16.22 is the latest stable version, and is recommended for most users. However Google gave no substantive free tool results and no hints for anything of value.

The tool would be able to go to the element level to compare and display the differences etc. I was about to begin doing it manually as I usually do, however thought there must be an XML diff GUI tool available somewhere. net applications which I would like to merge application settings elements etc.
