Admittedly I do not use difftool myself, and I have long assumed that difftool users are using the tools to _view_ the changes, but apparently some of the tools let the user muck with what is shown, and also apparently people seem to like the fact that they can make changes. So I've led to believe the "update in difftool, take the change back to working tree, either by making symbolic links or copying them back" behaviour was a _feature_.
Definitely. Here's how I use it: http://matthewlmcclure.com/s/2013/03/14/use-emacs-dircmp-mode-as-a-git-difftool.html -- Matt McClure http://www.matthewlmcclure.com http://www.mapmyfitness.com/profile/matthewlmcclure
