codelite updated NETBEANS-420:
------------------------------
Issue Type: Bug (was: Improvement)
> Intelligent source code diff comparison based on items in navigator needed
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NETBEANS-420
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-420
> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: utilities - Diff
> Reporter: codelite
> Priority: Major
>
> The graphical diff comparison in git can only deal with small changes in
> source code files now, if there is a big change in source code, the diff tool
> can hardly find the corresponding code parts for comparison, instead it
> focuses on irrelevant single line characters like \{ and } as same lines.
> I wish it could be improved by figuring out source code items(just as those
> in the navigator) for two source code files/versions, and create a jump
> button in the middle if the element(function or class) in the left file is
> not in the nearby position of the right file, then the right file jumps to
> position of the same function or class, resulting a meaningful comparison.
> The difference graph lines should be drawn for each element no matter the
> difference occurs in nearby positions naturally or after clicking the jump
> button.
