I should point out that NI has good merge and diff tools for labview if you are using that.

NI does indeed have good merge and diff tools, but they are not available to
FIRST teams. The merge and diff tools are only included in the Professional Development version (The most expensive one), which teams will not be receiving (correct me if I'm wrong). Also, LabVIEW's diff tool is only available with LabVIEW 2009 (AKA version 9.0), while teams will be getting version 8.x (8.6 I believe). There is however a tool called
LVDiff, but I couldn't get it to work with Mercurial (I suspect this is because LabVIEW can't compare two VIs with the same name).
