How do I use an external diff tool to compare *folders* in Intellij IDEA ?
I am attempting to use an external diff tool (Beyond Compare) to compare folders in Intellij IDEA 13 (EAP Build #IU-133.471).
Settings
My Intellij IDEA settings are as follows:
Documentation
Relevant documentation for Beyond Compare : here and here
Intellij IDEA's doc on the subject : here
Herein Lies the Rub
And here is what happens when I select two directories and press Ctrl + D (the shortcut to
Compare Directories) :

The same works fine when comparing files:

I have attempted using the current stable version of both Beyond Compare (v3.0) as well as Intellij to no avail. I have had no joy after appending the parameters
%1 %2etc. to the
Path to Executableeither.
Can you think of what I might be missing ? Have you used an external diff tool to compare folders in Intellij IDEA ?
Thanks!
