MessageWell, it may not seem like a problem if you compare a single file that 
you know has no differences, but imagine you’re checking a specific directory 
with hundreds of files, only one or two of which have changed.  Fossil will 
invoke WinDiff and have you look at every single file in that directory, 
instead of the one or two that actually have changed.  So, it IS kind of a 
problem, unless you avoid using WinDiff and use –tk option.

Oh, OK.  Well, if I do, say
  C:\Experiments\libfossil>fossil gdiff configure
in my environment, I do indeed get a WinDiff on that file showing no changes, 
but isnt' that what I asked it to do, rather than not pop up WinDiff at all and 
make me think something is wrong?

Oh, well, I guess I don't understand the particualr use-case, and probably I'm 
just adding noise to the conversation at this point, so I'll duck out.  At 
least in the scenarios I described below, it seems to be working right to my 
sensibilities in at least version 1.29.
