Have you taken a look at ugit? http://repo.or.cz/w/ugit.git (requires the latest GitPython http://gitorious.org/projects/git-python/) It can launch external diff tools. It also has a very fine diff gui. You can either select the entire diff hunk or, if you need to be more precise, drill down to specific lines from a diff. If the built-in diff selection doesn't suffice just right-click in the modified files section where there's an option to send the diff to a diff editor. You can define that to be tkdiff, xxdiff, etc. -- David -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
