Hi,
I am using git 2.17 and 2.22 and see the following issue. git difftool -d fatal: could not open '/tmp/git-difftool.pQZ8DA/left/test2' for writing: No such file or directory I do not have a newer version available to try. I could not find anything when searching the issues nor the web. Sorry for that, if its already solved. Is this issue fixed already in a newer version? If so which version would I need? Here a minimum example: Many thanks in advance and BR, Joachim rm -rf git_dir_issue mkdir git_dir_issue cd git_dir_issue mkdir some_folder_outside_git echo bar > some_folder_outside_git/bar mkdir some_other_folder_outside_git echo foo > some_other_folder_outside_git/foo mkdir another_other_folder_outside_git echo foo2 > another_other_folder_outside_git/foo2 mkdir another_other_folder_outside_git/test echo foo3 > another_other_folder_outside_git/test/foo3 mkdir git_repo cd git_repo git init touch test git add test git commit -a -m 'test' git branch test_branch ln -s ../some_folder_outside_git test2 git add test2 git commit -a -m 'test2' git checkout test_branch ln -s ../another_other_folder_outside_git/test test2 git add test2 git commit -a -m 'test2a' git checkout master ln -fs ../some_folder_outside_git test2 git commit -a -m 'test2a' git difftool -d test_branch => fatal: could not open '/tmp/git-difftool.pQZ8DA/left/test2' for writing: No such file or directory -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
