Alex Riesen	677fbff88f	Explain seemingly pointless use of system in difftool Portability reasons. Signed-off-by: Alex Riesen <raa.lkml@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	16 years ago
Alex Riesen	e8d1180467	Wait for git diff to finish in git difftool In ActivetState Perl, exec does not wait for the started program. This breaks difftool tests and may cause unexpected behaviour: git difftool has returned, but the rest of code (diff and possibly the interactive program are still running in the background.

David Aguilar	a904392eae	difftool: add support for a difftool.prompt config variable difftool now supports difftool.prompt so that users do not have to pass --no-prompt or hit enter each time a diff tool is launched. The --prompt flag overrides the configuration variable. Signed-off-by: David Aguilar <davvid@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	16 years ago
David Aguilar	afcbc8e7ec	difftool: move 'git-difftool' out of contrib This prepares 'git-difftool' and its documentation for mainstream use. 'git-difftool-helper' became 'git-difftool--helper' since users should not use it directly. 'git-difftool' was added to the list of commands as an ancillaryinterrogator.

David Aguilar	8b7332221d	difftool: add a -y shortcut for --no-prompt This is another consistency cleanup to make git-difftool's options match git-mergetool. Signed-off-by: David Aguilar <davvid@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	16 years ago
David Aguilar	46ae156d6c	difftool: use perl built-ins when testing for msys I don't even know what $COMSPEC means so let's be safe and use the same perly $^O test add--interactive uses. While we're at it, make git-difftool match the prevalent git-perl style. Signed-off-by: David Aguilar <davvid@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	16 years ago
David Aguilar	2464456a6a	contrib/difftool: use a separate config namespace for difftool commands Some users have different mergetool and difftool settings, so teach difftool to read config vars from the difftool.* namespace. This allows having distinct configurations for the diff and merge scenarios. We don't want to force existing users to set new values for no reason so difftool falls back to existing mergetool config variables when the difftool equivalents are not defined.

David Aguilar	507cfcbd81	difftool: fix documentation problems This patch makes the difftool docs always refer to the git-difftool script using the dashed form of the name. Only command examples use the non-dashed form now. Signed-off-by: David Aguilar <davvid@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	16 years ago
David Aguilar	5c38ea31f3	contrib: add 'git difftool' for launching common merge tools 'git difftool' is a git command that allows you to compare and edit files between revisions using common merge tools. 'git difftool' does what 'git mergetool' does but its use is for non-merge situations such as when preparing commits or comparing changes against the index. It uses the same configuration variables as 'git mergetool' and provides the same command-line interface as 'git diff'.
