>>git difftool branch1 branch2 opens my difftool (Beyond Compare:BC) with every file that has a diff between the branches.
I have to close BC after each file just for it to reopen with the next file.
BC can diff whole directories and multiple files.
Is there a way to get git difftool to open all files simultaneously, or diff the whole tree simultaneously?
Starting with git v1.7.11, you can use
git difftool --dir-diffto perform a directory diff.The answer that follows applies to git installations older than v1.7.11.
This issue is not related to BC, but to the way git works.
Fortunately, there is a solution at this URL – git-diffall
