If you wanted to work on the code itself without re-installing, I typically do that by installing in a venv and opening the installed to folder in the venv in an IDE.
Result of running meld in a terminal after those steps:
Note that the current version of meld requires GTK+ 3.14, which is not available on Ubuntu 14.04 (
Meld requires GTK+ 3.14 or higher.
error). So for Ubuntu 14.04, you need to checkout the last version that does not need GTK+ 3.14. That is the meld 3.14.* branch (currently 3.14.3), so checkout the branch using git checkout meld-3-14

I found meld 3.12 available in ubuntu 14.10 repository.
deb package installation works even under 14.04
