apex code comparison

Hi, As we all develop apex code in different sandboxes and finally need to move to QA sandbox/any other sandbox. What are the best tools available for code comparison (my current sandbox version against prod/any other sandbox version) before moving code from one sandbox to another to  understand the changes we did? What are the best practices for code comparison? Any ideas on this will be highly appreciated.

You need an SCM (software configuration management) tool like -  bitbucket (http://www.bitbucket.org) - free for 5 users or less.

see this blog for more information:

Use eclipse to get the code files on you local machine. Once you have files from different orgs on your local, you can use WinMerge to compare those files.
