What titles do you want to pass there? The titles are used to provide
additional information, e.g. "working copy", "revision xxx", ... - but
in that case there is no such information. The files simply are mine,
theirs, yours, merged. TortoiseMerge shows such a title automatically if
no title information is passed, and I think other programs should too.
