OK. At the top when moving the mouse cursor above the head line of one
pane
you can see the files location. For "Their" you see a path to a
temporary file
representing the file of the branch inside of the repository. I
expected to see the
URL to the location inside of the repository.

For my local checkout - of course - the info at the top is displaying
the correct
path... Does this help?

No, I said: "Ignore Whitespaces!"

Why? ("can't really see")

Strange! I don't have done any merge to that file yet!
