"Show differencess" against a deleted file will cause TortoiseMerge to error

By peter.mou... on April 23, 2009 22:28 (imported from Google Code)


What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Delete a file from the repository
  2. Invoke either the commit dialog or the check-for-modifications dialog
  3. Double-click on the entry representing the deleted file

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect TortoiseMerge to show the contents of the file in the state it was before it was deleted;
instead, TM errors with

---------------------------
TortoiseMerge
---------------------------
The diffing engine aborted because of an error:
Can't open file 'C:_source\includecombiner\src\Nrws\Web\IncludeHandling\IncludeReader.cs':
The system cannot find the file specified.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

This does not happen in TortoiseSVN's TortoiseMerge circa 1.5.x and above.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.5.1.0 on Windows 2008 Enterprise Server x64
