Using Changes.app with Versions.app

by matt on Aug.13, 2008, under Mac OS X Hints, Rantings

To use Changes instead of FileMerge in Versions for doing file diffs create a symlink to chdiff (the command line tool for running Changes) from the original opendiff path.

First, Become super user.
sudo -s
cd /usr/bin
If necessary, backup the old opendiff binary.
Then, create the symlink.
ln -s /Applications/Changes.app/Contents/Resources/chdiff opendiff

Make sure you type exit after you are finished.
