    Bypass "Quick Compare" ONLY when launching through Git

    Is there a way to disable the "Quick Compare" screen ONLY when launching BC from Git? I like the Quick Compare and normally want it enabled, but when doing "git difftool" I'd rather just go straight to the full comparison.

    Maybe somehow set up git to launch BC using a custom command that includes some commandline flag to bypass the quick compare?

    Hello,

    We don't have the option to disable it depending on case, but you can enable the Tools menu -> Options, Startup section: "Open view automatically if files are different".

    Assuming your difftool call from VCS is only on different files, then they would be found different and open automatically. This option is normally on by default, but you may have disabled it early on before integrating with Git.

      Ahh, cool, that'll do, thanks.
