Has anyone tried using latexdiff for change comparison in not merging? Presumably a small script to export both versions to latex, invoke latexdiff and then generate the marked-up PDF (which is what you get with latexdiff) would work. For latexdiff there are already scripts to handle git revisions which should allow one to diff a pair of arbitrary revisions in a git repository. http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/1325/using-latexdiff-with-git http://eothred.wordpress.com/2010/11/07/latexdiff-and-git/ > But a compare tool from commandline would be exceedingly useful for VCS. +1.
