About LibreMerge
LibreMerge brings the comparison engine of WinMerge to Linux and macOS,
with a native Qt interface. If you know WinMerge, you already know
LibreMerge: the layout, the colors and the workflow are intentionally
the same.
Side-by-side file comparison and merging, 2-way and 3-way, with word-level highlights, free editing and undo
Folder comparison, 2-way and 3-way, with WinMerge's compare methods, file filters, View filters, copy and delete
Archive comparison: zip, 7z and tar archives open as folders
CSV and TSV tables compared cell by cell, and images compared pixel by pixel
Syntax highlighting for 47 languages, light and dark themes
Works as git's merge and diff tool.
