I tried to respond to a relevant thread about this subject but it doesn't look like I'm able to post there. I can use BC4 as a mergetool but not the difftool
To give you all relevant information
Downloaded and installed from https://git-scm.com/downloads
using Git Bash exclusively, but when installed did the second option (install git for windows command line) if that matters.
In windows 10 64 pro
when running "git difftool file" it shows the default output of git diff (all in bash). there is no error. When running "git mergetool file" beyond compare launches as it should. Below is my setup.
$ git --version
git version 2.12.0.windows.1
[merge]
tool = bc
[mergetool "bc"]
path = c:/program files/beyond compare 4/bcomp.exe
[diff]
tool = bc
[difftool "bc"]
path = c:/program files/beyond compare 4/bcomp.exe
The only other additional thing being used is git LFS.
