git-difftool

The current Git-based project that I am working on, I am generally always in a sub-directory. Below is the output when I run the command git log --name-only from a sub-directory of the root of the repository. commit 678bd5ba6fc5474c4c61406768bf6cba5937c5d1 Author: thegreendroid Date: Mon Mar 27 09:36:24 2017 +1300 Commit message child_dir1_from_root/file1 | 184 +-- child_dir2_from_root/file2 | 2 +- How do I instead get git log to output something like below instead?

I want to use meld as my diff tool for git. If I configure my .gitconfig like this : [difftool] prompt = false [diff] tool = meld and run command : $ git difftool then git open a meld window for each file which have changes. But I want one single window with all my files in the meld list box. I have read a little about -d or --dir-diff option. When I try : $ git difftool -d then a single windows is opened with one directory tree in each meld part, but either contain empty directories. I can not open my files from here. For infomation : $ git --version git version 1.9.1 $ meld --version meld 1

In my current setup Mac OS 10.10.5 git diff tool is git merge tool that I want to replace with kdiff. hjpotter92 kdiff3 is generally located at the following location:

Microsoft has released a Git plugin for Visual Studio 2012 . I have found it to be excellent, but there doesn't seem to be any option to change the default Diff tool. Worse, I cannot do a diff at all on ascx codebehind files. It only shows a diff option for the main .ASCX file. How do you Diff the codebehind files when using the git plugin? Change the diff tool? You have to change your local .gitconfig, rather than make the change through Visual Studio as you would with TFS https://gist.github.com/mkchandler/2377564 Add the following to your global .gitconfig file: [diff] tool = diffmerge
