Is there a way to easily trace all the changes made to a file in smartGit? I have looked around without success..

I want to be able to see the current version (v0) against the version before that (v-1). Then I want to be able to see two earlier versions in comparison to each other (as in v-1 against v-2 or v-1 against v-3)

Sure, that's possible.

  1. Click onto the file you want to inspect in the Files tab.
  2. Double-click it or hit CTRL+L
  3. In the opened log window, only commits dealing with your selected file are displayed now. Go through them and compare changes at the bottom of the screen.
