Currently, Gearset performs a "Simplify Differences" on Clean data service and
Connected app before reporting these metadata types as "Changed" in the comparison results.

There are other metadata types, such as "Custom field" that sometimes show up as "Changed" in comparisons because the internal order of some of the tags are different in a sandbox vs production. Re-deploying these files from one environment to the other does not "fix" these differences. Gearset provides a "Simplify Differences" toggle in the UI that shows there is no effective difference with the file.

It would be nice to provide a configuration toggle for metadata types in the filter settings to "Simplify Differences" as part of the Compare. When toggled, the compare would not report the item as changed if Simplify Differences results in no differences. (If this is too complex at the metadata type, provide a global toggle on compare and deploy to simplify all differences as part of the compare so that metadata items with no effective differences show up as "unchanged" in the compare results.)
