Documentation change
THANK YOU for making my favourite graphic diff tool available on MacOS life easier for this linux user
It would be help other users to add or change some of your notes for using Meld as a diftool or merge tool.
- Meld for OSX version 3.21.0
- MacOS Ventura 13.0.1 (MacBook Pro)
- git version 2.37.1 (Apple Git-137.1)
- Meld failed to open the current file version with
git difftool {file}
open
is not running from where I invoked the command.
I fixed the problem with by putting $PWD/$REMOTE
instead of $REMOTE
in the git config.
-
I have not tested with mergetool but expect the same fix is required.
-
Originaly thee was no user or machine specific config file.
I found this running: git config --list --show-origin
I chose to create one at: /etc/gitconfig
- The environment does not focus the Meld invokation.
I have no solution to this an am new to MacOS but read that it might be related to 'Secure Keyboard Entry' on the terminal application but toggling this does not fix it.
