I have a question about the Meld visual diff and merge tool, which is probably a simple misunderstanding.
But how do I adopt lines that were removed in the $REMOTE
?
Please see the screenshot below for an example. I have changed the order of the imports and created a merge conflict, so now I want to pull the first change from the right, but then also the second change that would remove those lines that now already exist at top of the imports. I could remove them manually of course, but surely there is an easier way?
Or am I wrong with my assumption, that the middle pane is the result that gets written to $MERGED
?
Edit: In this contrived example, I actually have a Delete action that I can use to remove those lines. But in a real-world merge I'm trying to do with meld the Delete action is greyed out, as is the Pull from Right action. Any idea why Meld wouldn't allow me to Delete those lines that will be made obsolete by a Pull from Right above them?
