Summary: baseline diff
Initial Comment:
In lists, like changelog or commit or status, a double-click should open a diff
against the baseline of the revision. This enables one do work quickly with
TortoiseHg.

Message:
Hi. Have you tried with other diff tools?
I have no problem using ExamDiff and Kdiff.
You will need to ensure that double quote is present.
[extdiff]
cmd.vdiff = "C:\Program Files\Beyond Compare 3\Bcomp.exe"
Also, you can see the changes made or difference to the file by right
clicking the file.
Regards.

Message:
When specifiying in Mercurial.ini:
[extdiff]
cmd.vdiff = E:\Program Files\Beyond Compare 3\BCompare.exe
and
hg vdiff
in the preferences of the commit tool, it works everywhere,
status, Qct and in the shell. I am here on Windows.
However, I can't reproduce the trace back.
Also, when calling the "shell visual diff" or double-clicking a file
in the status, or from Qct, a dos box pops up, should be called
asynchronous.
Another thing is, "hg vdiff" first changes the current directory
to the "left" file's directory and then calls the diff tool with
diff-tool file1 file2
The thing is that file1 is relative to the current directory
(file2 is always full). This causes problems when opening a
second diff in Beyond Compare: the first file is not found.
It would fix the problem when using full path for the first file
too. But this must be fixed in hg.

Technically, Qct is 'bundled' with TortoiseHg's installer, which started as
Steve Borho's all-in-one installer. So it'd best to post the request on Qct
to Qct's tracker on SF.
On you problem with Beyond Compare, have you tried double-quoting the path
to Bcomp.exe in mercurial.ini?

Message:
I believe there are two separate issues being discussed here:
1. The commit tool (qct) ought to (perhaps as a user-configurable option)
invoke
a diff viewer on double-click of a file
2. It is not possible to specify Beyond Compare as the diff viewer of
choice using
the Preferences dialog. When attempting to do so, say specifying
"C:\Program Files\Beyond Compare 3\BComp.exe" as the diff tool, I get
this error
message whenever I select Visual Diff from the popup menu:
Error executing hgproc
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "hgproc.py", line 107, in run_trapped
File "hgproc.py", line 102, in parse
File "hggtk\hgcmd.pyc", line 155, in run
File "hggtk\hgglib.pyc", line 373, in hgcmd_toq
File "hggtk\hgglib.pyc", line 301, in thgdispatch
File "mercurial\dispatch.pyc", line 172, in parse
File "mercurial\cmdutil.pyc", line 64, in findcmd
UnknownCommand: C:\Program Files\Beyond Compare 3\Bcomp.exe
The second item seems to be a real bug (not a feature request like the
first item).

For example, in the qct commit tool double click on a file sets/clears the
check. It would be much more convenient, like it is in tortoisesvn, if a
double click would open the diff tool comparing against the baseline.
The status dialog already does it, although I still couldn't figure out
how to specify my diff tool (beyond compare). In the user settings I can
set a visual diff tool, but it doesn't seem to have an affect.
Ok, I just found out, that the qct commit tool is an external tool,
integrated into tortoisehg :), but Steve B. seems to be developer of
tortoisehg, too.
In the log dialog (file list bottom-left) it would be also very nice to
have the diff against the base revision instead of opening the file in an
editor, which I need very seldome.

I'm not entirely clear what you mean. Can you help elaborate on it please?
