If the +configuration variable `merge.tool` is not set, 'git difftool' +will pick a suitable default. ++ +You can explicitly provide a full path to the tool by setting the +configuration variable `mergetool.<tool>.path`. For example, you +can configure the absolute path to kdiff3 by setting +`mergetool.kdiff3.path`. Otherwise, 'git difftool' assumes the +tool is available in PATH. ++ +Instead of running one of the known merge tool programs, +'git difftool' can be customized to run an alternative program +by specifying the command line to invoke in a configuration +variable `mergetool.<tool>.cmd`. ++ +When 'git difftool' is invoked with this tool (either through the +`-t` or `--tool` option or the `merge.tool` configuration variable) +the configured command line will be invoked with the following +variables available: `$LOCAL` is set to the name of the temporary +file containing the contents of the diff pre-image and `$REMOTE` +is set to the name of the temporary file containing the contents +of the diff post-image. `$BASE` is provided for compatibility +with custom merge tool commands and has the same value as `$LOCAL`. + +--no-prompt:: + Do not prompt before launching a merge tool. + +CONFIG VARIABLES +---------------- +merge.tool:: + The default merge tool to use. ++ +See the `--tool=<tool>` option above for more details. + +merge.keepBackup:: + The original, unedited file content can be saved to a file with + a `.orig` extension.
