Open the Tools->Options

Under Source Control -> Visual Studio Team Foundation Server, click on the “Configure User Tools” button.

If you don’t see any extensions being setup, add extensions using the following method:

Click on the Add button.

Specify extension with the dot. For example “.cs” without quotes.

Select operation as “Compare”.

Select command as C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\diffmerge.exe

The command location depends on where you installed and which version of Visual Studio you are using. Just lookup for the diffmerge.exe. On a 64 bit Windows the file is located under x86 program files folder.

Set the arguments to %1 %2 %6 %7 %5 /ignorespace

Note: This doesn’t ignore blank lines added or removed.

You are set for comparing files ignoring white space.

Add additional extensions.
