Declaration

public static VersionControl.Task DiffHead(VersionControl.AssetList assets, bool includingMetaFiles);

Parameters

assets List of assets to diff.
includingMetaFiles Whether or not to include the .meta file.

Description

Starts a task for showing a diff of the given assest versus their head revision.

Do note that some asset types do not save their changes to disk right after making them so it is recommended to manually save the asset using AssetDatabase.SaveAssets before calling the diff tool.

using UnityEngine;

public class EditorScript : MonoBehaviour { [MenuItem("Version Control/Diff")] public static void ExampleDiff() { AssetList assets = new AssetList(); assets.Add(Provider.GetAssetByPath("Assets/ExampleAsset.cs")); AssetDatabase.SaveAssets(); Provider.DiffHead(assets, includingMetaFiles: false); } }
