Got IntelliJ to work as SourceTree's diff and merge tool with

  • macOS 10.14.6
  • IntelliJ IDEA 2019.2.1 (Community Edition)
  • SourceTree 3.2.1 (225)

using

Diff Command: open
Arguments: -W -b com.jetbrains.intellij.ce --args diff "$LOCAL" "$PWD/$REMOTE"

Merge Tool: open
Arguments: -W -b com.jetbrains.intellij.ce --args merge "$PWD/$LOCAL" "$PWD/$REMOTE" "$PWD/$BASE" "$PWD/$MERGED"

at SourceTree > Preferences > Diff.

See https://i.sstatic.net/YEQEV.png for a screenshot.

Hope this helps somebody :-)

I recently discovered a more convenient way to use IntelliJ Diff Tool without any settings at all.

  1. Merge two branches in SourceTree
  2. In IntelliJ IDE (for me its Webstorm) go "VCS->Git->Resolve Conflicts"

This way works perfectly.

For OSX android studio i've accomplished with this steps:

Open IntelliJ/Android Studio -> Tools -> Create Command Line Launcher

Something like this:

After that, open SourceTree Preferences: and put "/usr/local/bin/studio" in Diff/Merge Command. Like this:

Like This:

Diff Arguments:

diff $LOCAL $PWD/$REMOTE

Merge Arguments:

merge $PWD/$LOCAL $PWD/$REMOTE $PWD/$BASE $PWD/$MERGED

And if everything it's ok it should work.

Using PHPStorm 2013 on Windows and Sourcetree >2.4 I had to escape the arguments and add a full path to the merge options.

Diff / Merge command: 

C:\Program Files\JetBrains\PhpStorm 2017.3.6\bin\phpstorm64.exe

diff arguments: 

diff \"$LOCAL\" \"$REMOTE\"

merge arguments: 

merge \"$PWD/$LOCAL\" \"$PWD/$REMOTE\" \"$PWD/$MERGED\"
merge \"$PWD/$LOCAL\" \"$PWD/$REMOTE\" \"$PWD/$BASE\" \"$PWD/$MERGED\"

As @Shad mentioned, IntelliJ may not perform a diff/merge in Windows because the temporary files have not yet been created.

A workaround is to create a file delayed-intellij.bat as follows:

ping 127.0.0.1 -n 2 > nul "C:\Program Files\JetBrains\IntelliJ IDEA 2017.2.1\bin\idea64.exe" %*

Then use this file in Sourcetree: C:\temp\idea64-delayed.bat, and it will launch the merge tool with a short delay.

On macOS with IntelliJ IDEA CE.

Diff Command: open
Arguments: -W -b com.jetbrains.intellij.ce --args diff "$LOCAL" "$PWD/$REMOTE"

enter image description here

Where:

  • open: System command to open files and directories.
  • -W: Causes open to wait until the applications it opens (or that were already open) have exited.
  • -b com.jetbrains.intellij.ce: Bundle identifier for the application to use when opening the file.
  • --args: All remaining arguments are passed to the opened application in the argv parameter to main().

For the merge-tool on windows, these arguments work for me:

merge $PWD/$LOCAL $PWD/$REMOTE $PWD/$MERGED

If somebody is interested in Android Studio settings in Mac:

<path to IntelliJ IDEA launcher>:
/Applications/Android\ Studio.app/Contents/MacOS/studio

Diff tool
<path to IntelliJ IDEA launcher> diff <path to file1> <path to file2>

Merge tool
<path to IntelliJ IDEA launcher> merge <path to file1> <path to file2> <path to file3> <path to output>

The only problem which I notice is that Android Studio cannot show more than 1 diff at once. When I try, it complains that the file cannot be showed

Windows
Diff Command: C:\Program Files (x86)\JetBrains\IntelliJ IDEA 12.1.2\bin\idea.exe
Arguments: diff $LOCAL $PWD/$REMOTE

Merge Command: C:\Program Files (x86)\JetBrains\IntelliJ IDEA 12.1.2\bin\idea.exe
Arguments: (This isn't working right for me. I'm having pathing problems.) merge $LOCAL $PWD/$REMOTE $PWD/$BASE $MERGED

As of 12.1, these are the arguments for using IntelliJ's diff and merge tools from outside the program:

Diff tool
<path to IntelliJ IDEA launcher> diff <path to file1> <path to file2>

Merge tool
<path to IntelliJ IDEA launcher> merge <path to file1> <path to file2> <path to file3> <path to output>

OFFICIAL DOCUMENTATION: running-intellij-idea-as-a-diff-or-merge-command-line-tool

FWIW, I ended up using IntelliJ for my source control. I like it more than Sourcetree. It's quite robust.

Took some time to figure out arguments. Diff command text box should contain path to intellij, like: /Applications/IntelliJ\ IDEA\ 12.app/Contents/MacOS/idea
