Hey there! I’m on the lookout for my next engineering leadership adventure. If you know of any roles let me know through my contact page or on LinkedIn.
While perusing the post, “A few of my Git tricks, tips and workflows” I saw the author output his git diff information to an external tool. I wanted to do the same thing, but to vimdiff. After a very short googling, I ran across the following solution on StackOverflow:
git config --global diff.tool vimdiff
git config --global difftool.prompt false
git config --global alias.d difftool[/code]
Setting it up this way allows you to use “git diff” as normal, but if you want see the diff in Vim, use “git d” instead of “git diff”.</p>
