This is useful in case + your tool is not in the PATH. + +mergetool.<tool>.cmd:: + Specify the command to invoke the specified merge tool. The + specified command is evaluated in shell with the following + variables available: 'BASE' is the name of a temporary file + containing the common base of the files to be merged, if available; + 'LOCAL' is the name of a temporary file containing the contents of + the file on the current branch; 'REMOTE' is the name of a temporary + file containing the contents of the file from the branch being + merged; 'MERGED' contains the name of the file to which the merge + tool should write the results of a successful merge. + +mergetool.<tool>.trustExitCode:: + For a custom merge command, specify whether the exit code of + the merge command can be used to determine whether the merge was + successful. If this is not set to true then the merge target file + timestamp is checked and the merge assumed to have been successful + if the file has been updated, otherwise the user is prompted to + indicate the success of the merge. + +mergetool.meld.hasOutput:: + Older versions of `meld` do not support the `--output` option. + Git will attempt to detect whether `meld` supports `--output` + by inspecting the output of `meld --help`. Configuring + `mergetool.meld.hasOutput` will make Git skip these checks and + use the configured value instead. Setting `mergetool.meld.hasOutput` + to `true` tells Git to unconditionally use the `--output` option, + and `false` avoids using `--output`. + +mergetool.meld.useAutoMerge:: + When the `--auto-merge` is given, meld will merge all non-conflicting + parts automatically, highlight the conflicting parts and wait for + user decision. Setting `mergetool.meld.useAutoMerge` to `true` tells + Git to unconditionally use the `--auto-merge` option with `meld`. + Setting this value to `auto` makes git detect whether `--auto-merge` + is supported and will only use `--auto-merge` when available. A + value of `false` avoids using `--auto-merge` altogether, and is the + default value. + +mergetool.keepBackup:: + After performing a merge, the original file with conflict markers + can be saved as a file with a `.orig` extension. If this variable + is set to `false` then this file is not preserved. Defaults to + `true` (i.e. keep the backup files). + +mergetool.keepTemporaries:: + When invoking a custom merge tool, Git uses a set of temporary + files to pass to the tool. If the tool returns an error and this + variable is set to `true`, then these temporary files will be + preserved, otherwise they will be removed after the tool has + exited. Defaults to `false`. + +mergetool.writeToTemp:: + Git writes temporary 'BASE', 'LOCAL', and 'REMOTE' versions of + conflicting files in the worktree by default. Git will attempt + to use a temporary directory for these files when set `true`. + Defaults to `false`. + +mergetool.prompt:: + Prompt before each invocation of the merge resolution program. |
