Sourcetree and Labview merge, error in creating local and base files

[Mike Chwang]

Hi All,

I am note sure if it is 100% Sourcetree doing this, but when I use Sourcetree with Labview's LVMerge tool, I notice that something is creating 4 files, Back, Base, Local, and Remote. However, LVMerge sometimes crashes or hangs because some of mentioned files won't get created correctly.

Here are the files created, and you can see it in Sourcetree since they get created in the same directory.

As you can see, the BASE and LOCAL copies are both 0KB as they don't get generated correctly.

Has anyone using Sourcetree with Labview seen this problem before? I honestly don't think the LVMerge tool is doing anything to generate these files since I have used it before directly without going through command line or a 3rd party tool. All the GUI LVMerge tool does is take path information from BASE, LOCAL, and REMOTE VIs and starts the merging process.

Regards,

Mike
