diffutils: Comparing Three Files

 
 7 Comparing Three Files
 ***********************
 
 Use the program 'diff3' to compare three files and show any differences
 among them.  ('diff3' can also merge files; see ⇒diff3 Merging).
 
    The "normal" 'diff3' output format shows each hunk of differences
 without surrounding context.  Hunks are labeled depending on whether
 they are two-way or three-way, and lines are annotated by their location
 in the input files.
 
    ⇒Invoking diff3, for more information on how to run 'diff3'.
