My current diff app of choice for software development. Works great with both git and svn. Directory diff could be a nice addition. Author provided good support when I needed it.

I was looking for a visual diff tool able to process four files at the same time. Correct me if I am wrong, but only Diffuse does graphical comparison on more than 3 files. And I like it!

Up to now I mainly used meld, but now I am using more and more diffuse because diffuse doesn't ignore differences in line ending style and it allows you to set manual alignments. The only feature I am currently missing in diffuse is a way to compare 2 or 3 directories.

Probably really good, if it works on your system. I'm on OS X 10.8.4, and it crashes if I resize the window. Also, it's still listed as being on Fink at one of the source force pages (can't share links in reviews), so I went through an hour of hassle installing Fink just to find out it's not there any more.
