Bug ID: 421048
Summary: Input from /dev/null rejected
Product: kdiff3
Version: 1.8.x
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: application
Assignee: reeves...@gmail.com
Reporter: tho...@koeller.dyndns.org
Target Milestone: ---
I am using Kdiff3 as a merge tool with git. A while ago (don't remember exactly
when), kdiff3 used to accept /dev/null as an input file, but that is no longer
the case - I get an error saying '/dev/null is not a normal file'. This greatly
limits the usefulness of kdiff3 in this context, as git passes /dev/null as one
of the inputs for newly created or deleted files. If this happens I have to
click away three dialog windows before I can continue. This is really annoying.
