Why Meld for Mac/OSX and not Macports/Homebrew

Top reasons behind using this fork over Macports or ~~Homebrew builds~~:

Retina support (check the screenshot!)
Latest 3.x series
No hassle install (drag/drop like any other app)
Integrates with OSX menu
~~Supports standard OSX shortcuts (cmd-c/cmd-v instead of ctrl)~~ (Merged to upstream)
Note: Homebrew now installs Meld for OSX

Special Thanks

To Kai Willadsen http://meldmerge.org/ for creating Meld.
To the Gnome project https://www.gnome.org/
To Alex Kras whose web page (How To Run Meld on Mac OS X Yosemite Without Homebrew, MacPorts, or Think) served as my reference for tracking Meld for OSX usage and issues when I had absolutely no time to maintain this.

TODO

Get rid of the Meld wrapper shell script (this should get rid of all the wrappers needed to run Meld from the terminal)
Support Meld localizations (currently only English works)

Not Accepting Donations

I'm not currently accepting donations for the development of this fork. I just missed a proper implementation of Meld on Mac so I thought of creating this fork. If you want to donate, please donate to the original Meld project.

What is Meld?

Meld is a visual diff and merge tool targeted at developers. Meld helps you compare files, directories, and version controlled projects. It provides two- and three-way comparison of both files and directories, and has support for many popular version control systems.

Meld helps you review code changes and understand patches. It might even help you to figure out what is going on in that merge you keep avoiding.

Features

Two- and three-way comparison of files and directories
File comparisons update as you type
Auto-merge mode and actions on change blocks help make merges easier
Visualisations make it easier to compare your files
Supports Git, Bazaar, Mercurial, Subversion, etc.
…and more
