    • Type: Bug
    • Resolution: Unresolved
    • Priority: High
    • None
    • Affects Version/s: None
    • Component/s: General
    • Environment:

      SourceTree version 3.0.8
      Windows 7 Ultimate Service Pack 1
      BeyondCompare version 4.2.8
      Git version 2.18.0 / LibGit2Sharp 0.24.0 + git-lfs v2.4.2

    • Severity 1 - Critical

      With SourceTree version 3.0.8, the external diff tool works only for the first selected file. All additional files display a "file not found" error message. SourceTree shows the differences correctly. We are using BeyondCompare version 4.2.8. Earlier SourceTree versions worked fine.

      Example to reproduce:

      • select a commit with several changed files
      • in the "Log/History" tab select one file (A) and show the differences in BeyondCompare (ctrl D in our case) --> the differences are shown in BeyondCompare as expected
      • in SourceTree select another file (B) and show the differences --> BeyondCompare shows "file not found" for both sides; the same effect is for all additional files as long as the BeyondCompare is open.
      • close BeyondCompare
      • in SourceTree select file B and show differences --> BeyondCompare OK
      • in SourceTree select file A and show differences --> BeyondCompare "file not found"
