Powershell file compare.

Simple script for comparing files in two directories.

param (
       [Parameter(Mandatory=$true)][string]$originalDir,
        [Parameter(Mandatory=$true)][string]$newDir
)

$fso = Get-ChildItem -Recurse -path $originalDir
foreach($file in $fso.Name) {
echo comparing $originalDir\$file to $newDir\$file
Compare-Object -ReferenceObject $(Get-Content $originalDir\$file)  -DifferenceObject $(Get-Content $newDir\$file) -IncludeEqual
}

Will compare line by line the files in the originalDir with those in newDir with the same name. 

• Probably breaks if the file isn’t in newDir
• Doesn’t check for extra files in newDir.
