Hi All,

Is there a way to invoke an external diff program like meld from gitg?

I see an option "Allow external diff program" in Preferences, but

don't understand what exactly it does.

If you enable this option, then gitg will allow git to use an external diff viewer program when git is invoked to show a diff (from gitg). So, if you configure git to use an external diff viewer, this external diff viewer will be used. See also man git-diff and the diff.external git configuration option.

Thanks,

Victor
