<h1>Conflict merging</h1>

Eskil can be used as a conflict resolution tool. See examples below for settings.

<h1>Tools Details</h1>

<h2>RCS/CVS</h2>

For RCS and CVS the arguments to -r are standard version numbers just like to their -r options.
If a revision is an integer, it is added to the last number in the current version, thus giving relative versions.  E.g. -1 gives the second to last version.

<h2>Subversion</h2>

For Subversion the arguments to -r are standard version numbers just like its -r option.
If a revision is a negative integer, the log is searched backwards for earlier versions.
E.g. -1 gives the second to last version.

<h2>Git</h2>

For Git -r <rev> is passed to show, as in "git show <rev>:<file>".


To use Eskil for conflict resolution these settings can be used.

<pre>git config --global merge.tool eskil</pre>
<pre>git config --global mergetool.eskil.cmd 'eskil -fine -a $BASE -o $MERGED $REMOTE $LOCAL'</pre>
<pre>git config --global diff.tool eskil</pre>
<pre>git config --global difftool.eskil.cmd 'eskil $LOCAL $REMOTE'</pre>

<h2>Fossil</h2>

For Fossil -r <rev> is passed to finfo, as in "fossil finfo -p <file> -r <rev>".

Additionally, if a revision is zero or a negative integer, the log is searched backwards
for earlier versions. E.g. -1 gives the second to last version. The search
follows the current branch from the current version.

To use Eskil for conflict resolution these settings can be used.

<pre>fossil settings gmerge-command 'eskil -fine -a "%baseline" "%merge" "%original" -o "%output"' -global</pre>

<h2>Mercurial</h2>

For Mercurial -r mostly works as in "hg cat -r".
However, Eskil interprets zero or negative numbers as going back from the tip, i.e. -1 is one step back, corresponding to -2 in Mercurial.

Mercurial is supported in the Directory Diff, but needs the hglist extension to
display correct file sizes and dates. If not they are faked using the file's
sha1 and thus unique per file and gives a correct result in comparison.

To use Eskil for conflict resolution these config settings can be used.


[merge-tools]
eskil.args = -fine -a $base $other $local -o $output
eskil.priority = 1


<h2>Bazaar</h2>

For Bazaar -r works as in "bzr cat -r".

<h2>ClearCase</h2>
