TortoiseMerge.exe Trips Up On Spaces

[Aaron Ball]

My TortoiseMerge version is:

TortoiseMerge 1.14.6, Build 29673 - 64 Bit

I have two text files named "Foo.txt" and "Bar.txt". Foo.txt contains the text "Foo" and Bar.txt contains the text "Bar". When I execute the following command in Windows PowerShell:

TortoiseMerge.exe /base:"Foo.txt" /basename:"Base: Foo.txt" /mine:"Bar.txt" /minename:"Bar.txt"

I expect the title bar on the left panel of the TortoiseMerge window that pops up to be "Base: Foo.txt", instead it just says "Base:". Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

The problem is not TortoiseMerge but Powershell.

just use cmd.exe /c ... to run TMerge from a powershell console, or use titles that don't have spaces or colons in it...
