I was trying to remember the tool I was using - at my last job in NYC -

I swear by Beyond Compare -
https://www.scootersoftware.com/features.php?zz=features_multifaceted. It's
not free, but it's worth every penny. You can configure it to ignore
whatever needs ignoring (don't want to know about updated datestamps in
comments? no problem), and its Table Compare mode is priceless for
debugging exports to CSV files. :-)
