What is Meld?

-------------

 

Meld is a visual diff and merge tool. 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.
