Display changes in .nrproj files

[ibober]

The feature request

I'd like to see changes in the .NetReactor project files, which are text, xml schema based files, they have .nrproj extension.

Proposed solution

I think it's possible and simple to read files with extension .nrproj as text and display changes in them as GitHub Desktop does for Visual Studio project files with extension .csproj.

Additional context

This is an example of the content of .nrproj file:

<Reactor_Project ProjectFormat="2">
	<Main_Assembly>SomeAssembly.dll</Main_Assembly>
	<Assembly>
		<Filename>SomeOtherAssembly.dll</Filename>
		<EnforceRelativePath>false</EnforceRelativePath>
	</Assembly>
	<General_Settings>
		<Automatic_Exception_Handling>true</Automatic_Exception_Handling>
	</General_Settings>
	<Protection_Settings>
		<Anti_ILDASM>true</Anti_ILDASM>
	</Protection_Settings>
</Reactor_Project>

@ibober thanks for the issue. I'm not familiar with that filetype, but have you tried to force Git to diff it in your .gitattributes? You can add this line to do that:

*.nrproj diff

Let me know if that gets things working.

@steveward it didn't work. I added .gitattributes file with one line *.nrproj diff in it, committed, cleared cache with 'git rm --cache -r .' and 'git add -A'. But it says "No content changes found" (
