alt Hacker NewsI'm working on an online diff tool (https://codeinput.com/products/merge-conflicts) and recently added a mergiraf integration. Basically, the tool loads your git merge but uses mergiraf as the resolution driver. Then add these auto-resolved files to the editor instead of auto-resolving directly.
I also tried out weave, but apart from TypeScript, I haven't found any cases where it actually outperforms mergiraf (I run a bot that watches for new merge conflicts on GitHub, so I've got a steady stream of conflicts to test against).
I reached out a couple months ago on Reddit, but I don't think we ever landed on a time to talk. Would be interested to re-connect again.
This is great, and sorry we never landed a time after Reddit, that one's on me. Let's actually fix it, could you email me on [email protected].
For context on where the gap might be: weave matches at the entity level (functions/classes/methods by name + type + scope) and uses structural hashing for rename/reorder detection, so it should shine on reorders, renames, and large same-file edits, and may be at parity elsewhere. If your stream tags conflicts by language and type, comparing where each driver wins would be useful to both of us.
