<title>Resolving merge conflicts</title>
<p>
One of the best uses of <app>Meld</app> is to resolve conflicts that occur
while merging different branches.
</p>
<p>
For example, when using <app>Git</app>, <cmd>git mergetool</cmd> will start
a 'merge helper'; <app>Meld</app> is one such helper. If you want to make
<app>git mergetool</app> use <app>Meld</app> by default, you can add
</p>
<code>
[merge]
tool = meld
</code>
<p>
to <file>.git/gitconfig</file>. See the <app>git mergetool</app> manual for
details.
