Compare single new file against working tree

By kims... on April 25, 2013 14:25 (imported from Google Code)


What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Add a new file
  2. Make a change to same file and commit the change
  3. Open log messages window for that file only
  4. Select first commit where the file was added, and then the file itself in the lower section (with columns: path, extension, status, lines added and lines removed)
  5. Right click on the file and select "Compare with working tree"

What is the expected output?
The first side would have the content of the original file

What do you see instead?
Empty content on the first side with title "<filename>" (no hash value), and current working tree titled "<filename>:0000000" on the other side.

What version of TortoiseGit and msysgit are you using? On
what operating system?
TortoiseGit 1.8.2.0
git version 1.7.10.msysgit.1 (C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin)
Windows 7 64-bit

Please provide any additional information below.
Comparing the whole first commit against working tree works as expected.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
