    bcomp returns immediately when passed directories

    bcomp is supposed to block until the comparison is closed, but if the comparison involves a folder, it returns immediately. This makes e.g. git difftool --tool bc3 --dir-diff --no-symlinks work incorrectly.
    Thanks!

    Hello,

    Sorry for the confusion. Bcomp and BCompare are designed to be used with command line tools for file comparisons (diff and merge of text files). We do not support waiting on the folder level.

      Dang... any chance this could be added? Or is that really complicated?
      Thanks!

        It's definitely a large project. It's not likely something we could support in our initial release for OSX; we have a lot of other things that need work before we could schedule this enhancement.
