Use of M$ software is a choice -- all you have to do to not use it is to open your mind to the many alternatives. > The question I have with this approach is what does my diff look like > afterwards?

You said you want to ensure that "the tip of one branc is identical to the tip of another branch". Make it so the easy fool-proof way and then afterwards you can look at the resulting diff if you still wish to see what was different about it beforehand. -- Greg A.
