icdiff doesn't work on windows

hao-lee opened this issue · 2 comments

when comparing two simple text files using git difftool --extcmd=icdiff. icdiff uses 25% CPU and its memory usage will increase infinitely.

What happens if you run icdiff directly on those two files?

@jeffkaufman hello,

What happens if you run icdiff directly on those two files?

Still have problem.

$ echo "abc" > 1
$ echo "acd" > 2
$ icdiff 1 2

It seems that this problem is related to Git Bash for windows. icdiff 1 2 works well in cmd although color scheme is broken.
