What is WinMerge 2011?
WinMerge 2011 series is a fork of the original 
WinMerge application that compiles without ATL/MFC dependencies to enable zero-budget developers to build WinMerge from sources using Visual C++ Express editions.
WinMerge 2011 includes approximately the features from WinMerge mainstream trunk. A significant exception are plugins, which were ruled out due to unfortunate design flaws, but added support for scriptlet based file transforms compensates well for that.

Comments and Reviews
Advantage over Winmerge. Sticky thread on Winmerge forum implies: Winmerge2011 will compare files, while ignoring folder structure.
[ Compare files, ignore folder structure ] https://github.com/WinMerge/winmerge/discussions/1207 (Dated 20-Feb-2022)
Not sure why this tool is marked as working on Linux. The Downloads page only has Wine installers - https://bitbucket.org/jtuc/winmerge2011/downloads/
If you're looking for a Windows tool to run on Linux, then
Compare It! is by far more reliable and faster than BeyondCompare, Meld, Kdiff3, SmartSynchronize
Compare It was last updated in 2010, 8 yrs ago. Website has various copyright dates varying between 2009 and 2010, and releases list is not dated nor are any of the releases. Granted the low "likes" for Compare It might because it is commercial only ... I didn't get as far as testing. My needs are for Windows

WinMerge 2011 is a very good tool for finding differences between files and directories. It also have a merge function.
