NAME |
|
---- |
|
git-mergetool - Run merge conflict resolution tools to resolve merge conflicts |
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS |
|
-------- |
|
'git mergetool' [--tool=<tool>] [-y|--no-prompt|--prompt] [<file>]... |
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION |
|
----------- |
|
|
|
Use `git mergetool` to run one of several merge utilities to resolve |
|
merge conflicts. It is typically run after 'git-merge'. |
|
|
|
If one or more <file> parameters are given, the merge tool program will |
|
be run to resolve differences on each file. If no <file> names are |
|
specified, 'git-mergetool' will run the merge tool program on every file |
|
with merge conflicts. |
|
|
|
OPTIONS |
|
------- |
|
-t <tool>:: |
|
--tool=<tool>:: |
|
Use the merge resolution program specified by <tool>. |
|
Valid merge tools are: |
|
kdiff3, tkdiff, meld, xxdiff, emerge, vimdiff, gvimdiff, ecmerge, and opendiff |
|
+ |
|
If a merge resolution program is not specified, 'git-mergetool' |
|
will use the configuration variable `merge.tool`. If the |
|
configuration variable `merge.tool` is not set, 'git-mergetool' |
|
will pick a suitable default. |
|
+ |
|
You can explicitly provide a full path to the tool by setting the |
|
configuration variable `mergetool.<tool>.path`. For example, you |
|
can configure the absolute path to kdiff3 by setting |
|
`mergetool.kdiff3.path`. Otherwise, 'git-mergetool' assumes the |
|
tool is available in PATH. |
|
+ |
|
Instead of running one of the known merge tool programs, |
|
'git-mergetool' can be customized to run an alternative program |
|
by specifying the command line to invoke in a configuration |
|
variable `mergetool.<tool>.cmd`. |
|
+ |
|
When 'git-mergetool' is invoked with this tool (either through the |
|
`-t` or `--tool` option or the `merge.tool` configuration |
|
variable) the configured command line will be invoked with `$BASE` |
|
set to the name of a temporary file containing the common base for |
|
the merge, if available; `$LOCAL` set to the name of a temporary |
|
file containing the contents of the file on the current branch; |
|
`$REMOTE` set to the name of a temporary file containing the |
|
contents of the file to be merged, and `$MERGED` set to the name |
|
of the file to which the merge tool should write the result of the |
|
merge resolution. |
|
+ |
|
If the custom merge tool correctly indicates the success of a |
|
merge resolution with its exit code, then the configuration |
|
variable `mergetool.<tool>.trustExitCode` can be set to `true`. |
|
Otherwise, 'git-mergetool' will prompt the user to indicate the |
|
success of the resolution after the custom tool has exited. |
|
|
|
-y:: |
|
--no-prompt:: |
|
Don't prompt before each invocation of the merge resolution |
|
program. |
|
|
|
--prompt:: |
|
Prompt before each invocation of the merge resolution program. |
|
This is the default behaviour; the option is provided to |
|
override any configuration settings. |
