It didn't 'change the civil war'. It changed during the civil war. But only at the end - too late to make any difference.
After Lee was appointed General-in-Chief in January 1865, they made plans to train slaves for the army, and asked Britain and France whether they would grant recognition if slavery was abolished. They wouldn't.
