NAME
----
git-mergetool - Run merge conflict resolution tools to resolve merge conflicts

SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-mergetool' [--tool=<tool>] [<file>]...

DESCRIPTION
-----------

Use 'git mergetool' to run one of several merge utilities to resolve
merge conflicts.  It is typically run after gitlink:git-merge[1].

If one or more <file> parameters are given, the merge tool program will
be run to resolve differences on each file.  If no <file> names are
specified, 'git mergetool' will run the merge tool program on every file
with merge conflicts.

OPTIONS
-------
-t or --tool=<tool>::
	Use the merge resolution program specified by <tool>.
	Valid merge tools are:
	kdiff3, tkdiff, meld, xxdiff, emerge, and vimdiff.
+
If a merge resolution program is not specified, 'git mergetool'
will use the configuration variable merge.tool.  If the
configuration variable merge.tool is not set, 'git mergetool'
will pick a suitable default.
