Dear,
Incase filenames are used with a quote ' or a bracket [ (and maybe some more characters), git "diff" and "difftool -y" works fine, but git *difftool **-d* gives the next error message:
peter@scm_ws_10 MINGW64 /d/Dev/test (master)

*$ git difftool -d*

*hash-object /d/Dev/test//Test ''inch.txt: command returned error: 128* peter@scm_ws_10 MINGW64 /d/Dev/test (master)
$This issue is inside V2.10.x and V2.11.0. V2.9.0 is working correctly...
I am using git for windows and beyond compare 4.0 as difftool.
Best regards,
Peter
