How can I see the actual line or word level differences when viewing merge conflicts in VS Code

If "git merge .." results in a conflict, I can open the conflicted file in VS Code and see the diffs surrounded by <<<<<. ======, and >>>>> etc. But what I want to see are the actual differences between the two sections separated by =====, in the style of Meld or WinMerge, that is what words or lines are in one section and not the other. Is there a way to get this either in VS Code itself or another tool? (I'm aware of the Compare Changes option but all that does is show the differing sections side by side instead of on top of each other)
