Hello - I hope this isn’t too OT...</div>

<div class="bloop_sign" id="bloop_sign_1529396215941056000">I’ve
recently set up a gitlab repo to give a few different devs access
to code assets. I’m not a coder - so this is all still new to
me.</div>
<div class="bloop_sign" id="bloop_sign_1529396215941056000">
<br></div>
<div class="bloop_sign" id="bloop_sign_1529396215941056000">I
thought a good proof of concept that the new, cloned repos on other
devs machines were working as expected would be for them to
compile/build a hex file from existing code and for me to compare
their file against the ‘master’ production file using an online
utility e.g. <a href="https://www.diffnow.com/">https://www.diffnow.com/</a></div>

<br></div>
<div class="bloop_sign" id="bloop_sign_1529396215941056000">One of
the compiled files comes up as a match using this method - but the
file I’ve built doesn’t. However, the file I’ve built uploads to a
test device in a couple of ways and seems to work just fine.</div>

<br></div>
<div class="bloop_sign" id="bloop_sign_1529396215941056000">So now
I’m trying to troubleshoot this.</div>

<br></div>
<div class="bloop_sign" id="bloop_sign_1529396215941056000">Is my
theory flawed? Is it possible that hex files from the same code
built on different machines/OS/other variables will work but won’t
be an exact file <-> file match?</div>

<br></div>
<div class="bloop_sign" id="bloop_sign_1529396215941056000">Is
there a reasonably simple way of isolating what the differences are
- currently I just have big chunks of hex and I have no way of
knowing if these are serious differences or something
negligible.</div>
