Using Kompare for Git Diffs
It’s possible to use kompare as a graphical diff viewer for git. I created file git-kompare in my /usr/local/bin/ directory with such content:
git diff $* | kompare -
I also created alias gk for this command in my ~.bashrc:
alias gk='git-kompare'
Now I can use gk command instead of git diff with all its options.
Update from Sean Blanton:
You can shorten this with a bash function:
gk () { git diff $* | kompare - ; }
Bash functions can handle the pipes and arguments better than aliases.
