Yep. They've had version control for at least a decade, diff'ing also, by way of Compare. I'm also not sure why people are fascinated with using git here. It's weird seeing all of the complex solutions in this thread for a problem which does not exist.

Edit: I meant 'fascinated with using git here in this context'.

i don't know why you are getting down voted for speaking the truth. I don't know a single person who this article would relate to in today's climate since everyone i know is using the latest version of office or on google docs.

The Word compare feature is often a pain to use. This is a decent alternative.

The parent was just mentioning that "compare" has existed for a decade.

The latest Office products have proper real-time collaboration and change tracking, a la Google Docs.
