how can i compare two branches. lets say my working dev-branch to master or master to origin/master.
i can do this with git command line but how can this be done with sourctree. is it possible to have this in also an external diff tool? filemerge can handle a "directory diff".
i sometimes want to have the external diff to view the complete file and not only the "differences"

Use control-click or command-click to select any two commits (so both are highlighted at the same time)
The window in the lower left shows you a list of all files that were different (added, deleted, or modified)
You can select a file from that list to see the specific changes in that file between the two selected commits.source_tree_diff.png
You can also configure a third party diff tool, but the built-in functionality has met my needs so I don't have any experience with that.
Hmmm, I know this is really stale, but I just started using souretree. This shows how to compare two commits, but the OP asked for difference in branches. How do you know which commits to click on?

You can select 2 commits (cmd click) and compare in sourcetree. to compare 2 branches select the tip of the branches in log view , you can do the same for local and origin too.
But I usually use terminal since it is easier .
