difftool

I am using git difftool to compare 2 large files in VIM. I want to navigate only to the lines that differ.

How do I navigate quickly between lines that differ using GIT difftool ?

I am looking for something like winmerge shortcut keys :
Alt+down - Next Change
Alt+Up - Prev Change

vim Has an extensive and pretty good helpfile. You would do yourself a favour trying to familiarize yourself with it.

from :h diff

3. Jumping to diffs                 *jumpto-diffs*

Two commands can be used to jump to diffs:
                                *[c*
    [c      Jump backwards to the previous start of a change.
            When a count is used, do it that many times.
                                *]c*
    ]c      Jump forwards to the next start of a change.
            When a count is used, do it that many times.
