How to selectively apply parts of diff patches?

LigH · 28th December 2020, 08:04

Does anyone know a GUI tool which allows me to decide which changes in a diff patch I want to apply to my local working directory? Maybe something like "Beyond Compare" or a Tortoise tool...

Beyond Compare is great to compare files in two directories, find differences, and copy each of them manually if desired. I wonder if any similar tool can not only compare two existing directories, but also one directory on one side and the result of applied diff patches on the other side. If not, I will use Beyond Compare on two working directories from different repos...
