In both views, you can use context menu commands to apply, revert, stage, and unstage chunks or selected lines, as well as send chunks to a code pasting service. To use the unified diff view instead, select the Switch to Unified Diff Editor (1) option from the toolbar. The diff is displayed side-by-side in a diff editor by default. If the file is accessible, you can double-click on a selected diff chunk and Qt Creator opens an editor displaying the file, scrolled to the line in question. To display the diff in a read-only editor, select Diff of.

You can diff the current file or project to compare it with the latest version stored in the repository and to display the differences. Some of the commands are also available for the project or local repository that contains the file. To work with the current file, select the commands in Tools > Git > Current File. HOME is set to %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH% when the Git executable is run and authorization works as it would with git bash. Select Edit > Preferences > Version Control > Git, and then select the Set 'HOME' environment variable check box. You can set the HOME environment variable from Qt Creator. When you run Git from a Windows command prompt, it looks for the SSH keys in its installation directory, and therefore, the authorization fails.

However, the variable is typically not set in a Windows command prompt. If you configure Git for use with git bash, only, and use SSH authorization, Git looks for the SSH keys in the directory where the HOME environment points to. You can use the Gerrit code review tool for projects that use Git. Git is available for Windows, Linux, and macOS. Git is a fast decentralized version control system.
