[edit] Branch R2_14 (WinMerge 2.14)

We plan at the moment the next stable Version 2.14 from WinMerge and Kimmo do very quick look to changelog for new features/changes we want to port from Trunk:

[edit] TODO

• Better Unicode file detection for full contents compare (#2477657) - need to look through but probably should port
• Add option for setting line difference wordbreak characters (#2655563) - perhaps, depending if we port also Matthias' other word/char diff highlight patches. I'm not sure if this useful without those?
• Move translations to own folder - This was more of SVN repository reorganization and doesn't seem to be worth of the trouble doing in branch
• Allow disabling reading of unique folder contents (#2820067) - might make sense to port?
• Make comment filtering work for folder compare (#3046938) - need to consider
