Hello,
In my tests, when I would tell TortoiseGit to Merge, use the Resolve dialog to launch BC4 mergetool, and then cancel twice (BC4 and the Resolve dialog), the temporary files are left. As a GUI over a command line, it would need to send specific commands in order to issue deleting the files, which it probably does not do with a "Cancel" button.
With documentation, the expected method to remove the temporary files is to accept the Resolve: https://tortoisegit.org/docs/tortois...conflicts.html
A Clean-Up command would remove these files, but also would remove *any* files that aren't tracked (which may delete more files than you intend).

BC4 /TortoiseGit /conflict editing / Temporary files
I'm trying to use BC4 with TortoiseGit as the merge/conflict editor.
But I'm having an annoying issue with BC: TortoiseGit creates 3 files when a conflict resolution is started (.BASE, .LOCAL, .REMOTE)
- when using TortoiseGit internal conflict editor if I cancel the merge operation the files are automatically removed
- when using BC4 if I cancel the merge operation the files are NOT automatically removed.
Is this a BC issue or a TortoiseGit issue ?
Thanks in advance,
