Question

Where can I find filemerge after Xcode is upgraded to 4.3?

Answer 1

In Xcode, choose this menu item: Xcode -> Open Developer Tool -> FileMerge. The app itself is here:

/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Applications/FileMerge.app

On the command line, use opendiff. You must have the command line tools installed -- go to Xcode, Preferences, Downloads tab, and install Command Line Tools if you haven't already.

Doesn't work for me: I get Error: Can't run /Developer/usr/bin/opendiff (no such file). Xcode 4.3 removed this folder altogether, and now /usr/bin/opendiff exists but gives me this error – Evangelistic

You can also launch it from directly within xcode, on the top bar. Click "Xcode" >> "open developer tools" – Lasonde

If the command-line doesn't work, and you have no /Developer directory anymore, you probably need to: sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer – Ohare

Answer 2

Run this in your terminal:

sudo /usr/bin/xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer

This didn't work for me, but sudo /usr/bin/xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app did. – Otherworld

Weird, it worked for me. I'll leave it unedited for now, and people will just try both methods and use the one that works for them. – Passer
