It lets you compare two or three files, and updates the comparisons while you edit them in-place. You can also compare folders, launching comparisons of individual files as desired. Last but by no means least, Meld lets you work with your current changes in a wide variety of version control systems, including Git, Bazaar, Mercurial, Subversion and CVS. _______________________________________________ Share this post Link to post
