Re: git merge with tkdiff fails (extra operand)

It seems that tkdiff calls diff with arguments that diff does not like.
What version of tkdiff do you use?
I'm running TkDiff 4.0.2 (and "diff (GNU diffutils) 2.8.7").

P.S.: to make sure that it is tkdiff, I would search for this line in
tkdiff:

        set g(debug) f

and change the "f" to "t".
I cannot find this line in my version of tkdiff ... in fact, the
string "debug" does not occur anywhere in the file.
Ah, I was looking at the latest and greatest: 4.1.3.  You can, too:

http://tkdiff.cvs.sourceforge.net/tkdiff/src/tkdiff?revision=1.48&view=markup
Thanks, with that version it works for me (the link actually downloads
version 4.1.4 currently). Maybe the minimum version of TkDiff should
be listed as a prerequisite, or "git mergetool" should be enhanced to
support older versions, too.
