SourceTree keep on chrashing with enabled daff in git project

Hi @studentutu, is that top window (the one with "Select a file to view the diff") vscode? Perhaps it is confused by custom diff formats (I'm surprised it crashes though). I'll take a look at installing vscode and replicating. Thanks for reporting the problem.

@paulfitz sorry for not giving more info about the issue - top window is just a SourceTree window, but yes, I'm using VSCode as my default viewer, though sourcetree has it's own view on the diffs

[studentutu]

@paulfitz HI, have you tried to reproduce the issue?

[paulfitz]

@studentutu I did install VSCode, and poked around, but I see now that was the wrong program. Is "SourceTree" this application? https://www.sourcetreeapp.com/

[studentutu]

@paulfitz yes, Sourcetree - better GUI for large projects if you are using Unity/Unreal game engine or similarly larged projects,sorry I should have posted it in the issue(

If it can help a way to avoid the problem for me was to remove the integration of daff into git and add the following to my .gitconfig

[alias]
    diff-csv = !git -c diff.external=\"daff diff --git\" diff *.csv

With that you can run git diff-csv when you want to see the diff of all the csv in your repository, but external tools like Sourcetree are not affected.

I have the same issue.
