Visual Diff Tool For Mac Os X

Posted on  by 

Active1 year, 3 months ago

On Windows, there is TortoiseMerge tool that's able to open patch files (the files produced by git patch / diff -u, etc...), and then act as a visual diff utility to select/edit the patch chunks.

On linux, I've heard kompare does this.

On Mac, I haven't find any tool for this, so do you know any ?

PS: I'm not looking for diff tool which require giving you 2 or 3 files as input (since the patch I'm editing might not be valid, I can't apply the patch on a temporary subset of the file and diff manually).

  2. 12 May 2014 Best visual diff tool on OS X Kaleidoscope, git, diff, FileMerge, opendiff, p4merge, and p4. If you know one please tell me. For the last couple of months I was trying various options for doing diffing and merging on Mac with git and perforce. Perforce itself has pretty good merging tool p4merge and people already know how to setup it with git.

The tool I work for (ECMerge), as a 'preview patch' feature. It lets you apply a (reverse-)patch on the file and produce the other side just visually, or simply 'tell' if it applied succesfully as a whole. While producing the other side, it can paste to the clipboard what was rejected. It has the usual options for context limitations and displaced application. Patch files have syntax colouring.

Once you could apply the patch as you wanted, you have a 2-way merge view so you can make a selection of what you finally want to apply, save or produce patches.

This is not perfect but workable.

PatchViewer on Mac OS X (http://appledeveloper.com.au/products/patchviewer/) does part of what you are after (display patch files visually using whatever GUI diff tool you like), but it doesn't allow editing the patch file.

You can use colordiff and pipe in the patch file. Not a GUI, but definitely way better than just trying to read the patch file.

brew install colordiffcat file.patch | colordiff | less -RS

Worked well for my needs. More info here: http://www.markusbe.com/2009/12/how-to-read-a-patch-or-diff-and-understand-its-structure-to-apply-it-manually/

The GitHub app for Mac does this, and it doesn't necessarily have to be used with GitHub.
