PatchViewer allows you to view patch files, or the output from diff-like command-line tools, using your existing third-party graphical file comparison tool such as Xcode's FileMerge. Supports diff output in traditional, context and unified formats from a range of command-line source control tools such as Git, Subversion, Mercurial and CVS (to name a few). Can pipe diff data directly to the PatchViewer command-line tool. Supports any file comparison tool that can be launched with source and destination files as command-line arguments. You can configure custom command-line arguments to pass to your third-party file comparison tool in PatchViewer's Preference panel. PatchViewer is configured by default to use Xcode's FileMerge.
