Export Diff

A Godot 4 editor plugin that compares two export presets and visualizes which files are exclusive to each, shared between both, or present in the project but missing from either.

Features

• Reads export_presets.cfg and lists all preset profiles automatically
• Compares any two presets side by side
• Groups files into four categories:
  • Only in Profile A — files exclusive to the first selected preset
  • Only in Profile B — files exclusive to the second selected preset
  • Common in both — files shared by both presets
  • In neither — files found in the project but not included in either preset
• Displays results as a directory tree in the editor dock

Installation

1. Download or clone this repository into your project's addons/ folder:

your_project/
└── addons/
    └── export-diff/
        ├── plugin.cfg
        └── plugin.gd

2. Open your project in the Godot editor.
3. Go to Project → Project Settings → Plugins.
4. Find Export Diff in the list and set it to Enabled.

Usage

1. Open your Godot project that has an export_presets.cfg file at the project root.
2. In the left dock, find the Export Diff panel.
3. Use the Profile A and Profile B dropdowns to select the two export presets you want to compare.
4. Click Compare Presets.
5. The tree view will populate with four categories. Expand any category to browse files by their directory structure.
6. Click a file in the tree to print its full path to the Output console.
