Hi Arjen: The diff executable from the MinGW-w64/MSYS2 Unix tools should "just work" if run from a bash script (as in comprehensive testing, ctest, etc.) Is the issue simply that our build system is finding something other than /usr/bin/diff.exe from the MinGW-w64/MSYS2 diffstat package? If the issue is more complicated than that, please send me the relevant report tarball. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
