Xcode includes an utility called fileMerge.app to compare files on mac.
To use the utility, open Finder and then open the content of XCode.app package, goto /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Applications folder, you should see the fileMerge.app.
Since it is not convenient to always do so to use this utility, you can add a shortcut to this app in your application folder. To do so, right click FileMerge.app and select "Make Alias" menu item, it will create an alias item for the app, then copy the alias item to your application folder, and rename it to FileMerge.app for future use.
The utility can also be opened from xcode by following steps
Start xcode, click menu open developer tool, and select the following menu items:
1. start xcode
2. select menu item from "xcode->Open developer tools->File Merge"
