I've never used it for 3-way merge; for me it's like an editor with two files
asside and its diff graphically.  Something like a more graphical vimdiff, with
mouse control and all that.

I use it as it has a comfortable directory diff, quick merging by mouse, and an
acceptable editor for any new text I may have to type.

In fact, I use to review branches using meld, but setting one directory with a
fossil checkout of the branch leaf, and then another directory with the pivot to
the branch I want to merge to. Then I run "meld" between the two directories.
