From: Thomas Arcila Date: Mon, 24 Mar 2008 11:55:36 +0000 (+0100) Subject: gitk: Allow users to view diffs in external diff viewer X-Git-Url: https://privyetmir.co.uk/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=314f5de1a0b91d27cbbb8a400337dd41cf84d511;p=gitk gitk: Allow users to view diffs in external diff viewer This allows gitk to run an external diff viewer such as meld. Right-click on a file in the file list view gives "External diff" popup menu entry, which launches the selected external diff tool. The menu entry is only active in "Patch" mode, not in "Tree" mode. The program to run to display the diff is configurable through Edit/Preference/External diff tool. The program is run with two arguments, being the names of files containing the two versions to diff. Gitk will create temporary directories called .gitk-tmp./ to place these files in, and remove them when it's finished. If the file doesn't exist in one or other revision, gitk will supply /dev/null as the name of the file on that side of the diff. This may need to be adjusted for Windows or MacOS.
