PhpStorm offers a feature that allows you to compare and synchronize files within the IDE directly. This can be particularly useful for keeping track of theme changes across different Drupal sites. ➡️ Comparing Directories: 1. Select Folders: Choose the specific folders you want to compare. These could be theme folders from different Drupal installations or other relevant directories to your project. 2. Initiate Comparison: Right-click on the folders and choose "Compare Directories" from the context menu. This action will open a new window displaying the differences between the two folders. 3. Review Changes: The comparison window will highlight files that are unique to each folder and those that exist in both but have differences. You can easily navigate these changes and see the specific modifications within each file. ➡️ Syncing Files: 1. Choose Direction: Once you've reviewed the differences, you can decide which direction to synchronize the changes. For instance, you might want to copy modifications from one folder to another. 2. Select Files or Rows: Right-click on the specific file or row within the comparison window and choose to copy from left to right (or vice versa) depending on your desired direction. 3. Synchronize: Use the window's play buttons to synchronise the selected row or all changes. This will effectively update the files in one folder to match the other. Using PhpStorm's file comparison and synchronization capabilities, you can streamline your development workflow and ensure consistency across different project components. #phpstorm #php #drupal ~~~ If you found this post helpful. ♻️ Please repost and follow. 📧 Join our newsletter; link in the first comment.
