I trying to use git-gui (version 0.21.windows.2), more specifically I want to use Meld as my difftool to be launched from within git-gui.
After browsing to Tools > Add and I am not sure what to enter into the popup window. I found many descriptions on how to set meld as difftool for commandline, but nothing on how to do it for the git-GUI. I tried git difftool as name and "C:\Program Files (x86)\Meld\Meld.exe" $LOCAL $REMOTE as command, keeping all checkboxes empty, see screenshot:
I can press Add which closes the popup without any warning message. A new menu entry under Tools is successfully created. However, if I choose now the entry Tools > git difftool I receive the following error message:
Cannot import: GTK+
DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
Please advise!
