Hang when trying to use external diff (FileMerge) to diff image file

      I tried diffing a .png file with external diff, which is FileMerge. FileMerge reported an error "not an ascii file". After that I returned to SourceTree and right clicked the same file (in commit changed files list) at which point SourceTree didn't respond. The situation was fixed when FileMerge was killed.

            This is expected behavior. SourceTree must wait until FileMerge has excited as that is the only way for SourceTree to know that you are done merging. SourceTree won't notice when something went wrong and no merge takes place, SourceTree simply has to wait for FileMerge to exit. See SRCTREE-2674.
