axlrosen: until this bug is fixed, I use and it works, even if it is not the better way to do this.

Does this mean you log it in your bug-tracker, or log it in release notes ?

Hi,

Difftool configuration is OK, and it works like a charm. The problem is that when used with the dir-diff option, git create symlinks of files to be compared, and it seems diffmerge consider that it should not compare symlinks, even if they share the same name...

I know that git provides the --no-symlink option, but for a big repo, this can be a problem

and this option was finely supported in older diffmerge versions…

when used through git does create symlinks for the files to be compared, then diffmerge no more compare them…
