Diff Tools
Diff tools can be extremely useful when working on large projects, especially when sharing code between several programmers without the aid of a revision control system such as CVS or Perforce. These tools make it possible to track changes betwen two different versions of a mod, and are even capable of seamlessly merging two different mods.
Yet another use is to examine changes on the SDK tree after a update, in addition to reading the changelog.
