Merging with diff3: the “three-way merge”

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on news.ycombinator.com

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • Tahoe-LAFS

    The Tahoe-LAFS decentralized secure filesystem.

  • Then there are Darcs and Pijul, which use a theory of patches.

    So Pijul manages to have lossless merges by actually storing a directed graph (though of course, you will still need to decide how to flatten that into a displayed file) :

    https://jneem.github.io/pijul/

    And because uses more information about the history, it is able to do smarter merges (if I am not mistaken, even compared to the OP ?) :
