[PATCH] mergetool: added support for kdiff3 on windows

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



kdiff3's homepage is http://kdiff3.sourceforge.net/.

kdiff3 is automatically added to the available
mergetools if its path is found in the Windows
Registry. Be sure to set

    git config core.autocrlf true

kdiff3 seems to follow Windows crlf convention.

This patch was developed against msysgit, and is add
functionality specific to Windows. It should also apply
against git.git's master and shouldn't do any harm
to the handling of mergetools on platforms other than
Windows

It was tested on a Windows with german localization. I'd
be interested if the lookup of kdiff3 works on other
localizations, too.

Handling mergetools that needs an absolute path is a bit
hacky. merge_tool is mostly used as an alias but also as
the name of an executable. A level of indirection would
be nice for handling absolute paths.

kdiff3 on Windows doesn't accept '--' on it's commandline.
Is '--' really needed on other platforms? I replaced it by
the variable KDIFF3SEPARATOR.
