6 git-mergetool - Run merge conflict resolution tools to resolve merge conflicts
10 'git-mergetool' [--tool=<tool>] [<file>]...
15 Use 'git mergetool' to run one of several merge utilities to resolve
16 merge conflicts. It is typically run after linkgit:git-merge[1].
18 If one or more <file> parameters are given, the merge tool program will
19 be run to resolve differences on each file. If no <file> names are
20 specified, 'git mergetool' will run the merge tool program on every file
26 Use the merge resolution program specified by <tool>.
27 Valid merge tools are:
28 kdiff3, tkdiff, meld, xxdiff, emerge, vimdiff, gvimdiff, ecmerge, and opendiff
30 If a merge resolution program is not specified, 'git mergetool'
31 will use the configuration variable merge.tool. If the
32 configuration variable merge.tool is not set, 'git mergetool'
33 will pick a suitable default.
35 You can explicitly provide a full path to the tool by setting the
36 configuration variable mergetool.<tool>.path. For example, you
37 can configure the absolute path to kdiff3 by setting
38 mergetool.kdiff3.path. Otherwise, 'git mergetool' assumes the tool
