Meld 3.19.0 has been released. Meld is a visual diff and merge tool. It lets you compare two or three files, and updates the comparisons while you edit them in-place. You can also compare folders, launching comparisons of individual files as desired. Last but by no means least, Meld lets you work with your current changes in a wide variety of version control systems, including Git, Bazaar, Mercurial and Subversion.
Features
* Initial Windows build pipeline using Appveyor (Vasily Galkin)
* Add new per-pane status bar with selectors for syntax highlighting and
text encoding (Kai Willadsen, with extensive testing by Vasily Galkin)

shows the symlink target (Kai Willadsen)
* Inline highlighting now draws whitespace in any changes it covers (Kai
Willadsen)
* Improved contrast in dark theme support (Vitalii Dmitriev)

(Kai Willadsen)
