It is typically run after gitlink:git-merge[1]. + +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 or --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. + +Author +------ +Written by Theodore Y Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> + +Documentation +-------------- +Documentation by Theodore Y Ts'o. + +GIT +--- +Part of the gitlink:git[7] suite |
