Resync Comparison From Here makes gaps on both sides

[Valentino]

After activating "Resync Comparison From Here" very often empty lines appear on both sides. Sometimes it's only 1 line, sometimes 20 lines, depending on how much empty lines were on one of the sides before activating "Resync Comparison From Here".
Example:
Create file1.txt:

Code: Select all

Line1
Line7
Line8
Line2

Create file2.txt:

Code: Select all

Line1
Line2
Line3
Line4
Line5
Line6
Line7
Line8
Line2

And compare them. You'll get:

Code: Select all

Line1        Line1
Line7
Line8
Line2        Line2
             Line3
             Line4
             Line5
             Line6
             Line7
             Line8
             Line2

Select Line7 on both sides and press Resync, you'll get:

Code: Select all

Line1        Line1


             Line2
             Line3
             Line4
             Line5
             Line6
Line7        Line7
Line8        Line8
Line2        Line2

As you can see two empty lines between Line1 and Line2 could be deleted.

Currently the higher line is just moved down to the lower and recompared - no empty lines are being removed. I will consider your suggestion, but cannot promise of or when I will add it.
