ST3 Steps to add command to Main.sublime-menu on Mac OS X

#1

I want to add the file_diff_menu command to the main menu of ST3 on OS X.

I found the main.sublime-menu in Default.sublime-package in /Applications/Sublime Text.app/Contents/MacOS/Packages

However when I unzip and extract main.sublime-menu to ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User and start ST3 it shows ALL the menus are duplicated.

I already read http://docs.sublimetext.info/en/latest/customization/menus.html#menu-types

My question is do I have to repackage the Main.sub-menu is there an override?

Ok I figured it out. I simply removed everything in ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User/Main.sublime-menu and added the json below. Notice new File Diff menu choice.

[
    {
        "caption": "File",
        "mnemonic": "F",
        "id": "file",
        "children":
        [
            { "command": "file_diff_menu", "caption": "File Diff", "mnemonic": "Z" },
        ]
    }
]
