Merge
Use a custom merge command
By default, chezmoi uses vimdiff
. You can use a custom command by setting the
merge.command
and merge.args
configuration variables. The elements of
merge.args
are interpreted as templates with the variables .Destination
,
.Source
, and .Target
containing filenames of the file in the destination
state, source state, and target state respectively. For example, to use
neovim's diff mode, specify:
~/.config/chezmoi/chezmoi.toml
[merge]
command = "nvim"
args = ["-d", "{{ .Destination }}", "{{ .Source }}", "{{ .Target }}"]
Hint
If you generate your config file from a config file template, then you'll
need to escape the {{
and }}
in your config file template so that they
appear in your generated config file.
