Introduction
In this lab, you will learn how to use the Linux diff3
command to compare and merge three files with conflicting changes. The diff3
command is a powerful tool that helps you identify and resolve conflicts when working with multiple versions of a file. You will start by understanding the purpose and syntax of the diff3
command, and then learn how to use it to merge conflicting files. This lab will provide you with practical examples and steps to help you become proficient in using the diff3
command for your scripting and programming tasks.
The diff3
command is a useful tool for resolving conflicts in a three-way merge, which is a common scenario when working with version control systems or collaborating on shared files. By the end of this lab, you will be able to effectively use the diff3
command to merge conflicting files and choose the desired changes to create a unified version.
