Perhaps it did overwrite it once - I see that the "_windows" folder in the settings repository was updated, though no other folder was updated.Īnother thing I noticed - the IDE kept "losing" the git.exe file. In addition, when I close the IDE on Windows, it begins automatically syncing the settings - I pause it so it will not overwrite the good remote settings.
#SMARTGIT CONFIG OPTIONS LOCATION CODE#
It says "Settings synced successfully", but the color scheme does not change, nor the "File and Code Templates", and I suppose that everything else didn't change either. I clicked Settings Repository -> (It definitly showed the correct setting repository URL) and then "Overwrite Local".

Then I open CLion on Windows (the VM host) (after I have disabled "IDE Settings Sync" plugin, but "Settings Repository" is enabled, and restarted CLion). I can see that remote contains the desired settings. That will cycle through each merge conflict in the working copy and as long as you save the file from BC, the conflict will be marked resolved by git (hence the mergetool.bc trustExitCode setting).I set the settings I want on CLion on Linux VM, then created the settings repository (in bitbucket, where my account is with a different email) and pushed to remote. To resolve merge conflicts: git mergetool Which opens BC’s directory comparison which can’t be beat IMO. If you want to see a diff of the whole directory, you can run: git difftool -dir-diff In your working copy to show unstaged changes. Once you have it setup, you can easily run git difftool path/to/my/file.js

This is fixed in BC4, so you should probably just upgrade to that. If you don’t do it, bcomp.exe will exit too early, and no files will be available to diff while you are viewing the directory diff. When using the new -dir-diff option of the git difftool command: git difftool 4e560^^ -dir-diff #4e560 is your commit hash that you want to show a whole directory-diff on in BCīeyond Compare 3 has a bug that is not fixed as of v3.3.12 where you need to employ this workaround. The reason I am using BCompare.exe for the difftool instead of bcomp.exe is described here.
In addition to the above, you need to tell git the path to bcomp.exe: git config -global "c:/program files (x86)/beyond compare 3/BCompare.exe" git config -global "c:/program files (x86)/beyond compare 3/bcomp.exe" Pretty much the only difference from above is using bc3 instead of bc: git config -global diff.tool bc3 git config -global difftool.prompt false git config -global difftool.bc3 trustExitCode true git config -global merge.tool bc3 git config -global mergetool.bc3 trustExitCode true Git for Windows Configuring Beyond Compare 3 Git for Linux Now, among other things, you can right-click files in VS and choose Compare with Unmodified to open Beyond Compare. Specifically, you need to open git/config in the repo and add the following: tool = bc4 cmd = \"C:\\Program Files\\Beyond Compare 4\\BComp.exe\" \"$LOCAL\" \"$REMOTE\" tool = bc4 cmd = \"C:\\Program Files\\Beyond Compare 4\\BComp.exe\" \"$REMOTE\" \"$LOCAL\" \"$BASE\" \"$MERGED\" Instead of using your global git config, it forces you to change the git config file in the repo. Not to mention, it doesn’t support 3-way merge. However, I don’t find it as useful as I do Beyond Compare. Visual Studio includes a builtin diff viewer that is pretty nice. You don’t need to do anything special to get directory diffs working on Windows. On Windows, in addition to the above commands, you need to tell git the path to bcomp.exe: git config -global difftool.bc.path "c:/program files/beyond compare 4/bcomp.exe" git config -global mergetool.bc.path "c:/program files/beyond compare 4/bcomp.exe"

To make this affect all new sessions, change the dropdown at the bottom of the dialog from Use for this view only to Also update session defaults before you click OK. In the Folder Compare, click the Rules toolbar button (referee icon). The approach I like is updating Beyond Compare to follow the symlinks. There are a couple of ways to fix this ( courtesy of StackOverflow). By default, git uses symlinks to do the directory diff and BC4 will not follow those by default yielding something that looks like this: git difftool -dir-diff), I had to tweak the settings a little bit. In order to get directory diffs working (e.g. Run these commands from terminal: git config -global diff.tool bc git config -global difftool.prompt false git config -global difftool.bc trustExitCode true git config -global merge.tool bc git config -global mergetool.bc trustExitCode true To get it working on any linux flavor is pretty straight forward.
Configuring Beyond Compare 4 Git for Linux It is cross-platform and makes diffs and 3-way merges very easy to understand and visualize. Beyond Compare has been my favorite comparison tool for a while now.
