I tried resolving it using TortoiseMerge, but since the resulting diff was so strange (lines missing makes for an intresting diff :-) ) I selected "resolve later".

No.

They are really missing. The resulting (unresolved) file looked like:
 
--- schnipp ---
<<<<<<< .mine
(The complete content of the mine-file here)
=======
(The content of the theirs-file here minus a couple of hundred lines at the end)
>>>>>>> .r#####
--- schnapp ---
 
It didn't even seem like there had been any effort to insert the conflict markers around the conflicting parts of the files, but simply marked the entire file contents as conflicting.
