   @brunopostle Hi again. :)

   It doesn't seem like 'Merge this Branch' should be grayed out--perhaps I'm missing something.

   created a simple repo, to test... https://hub.openingdesign.com/OpeningDesign/GIT_test.git

   I switched that to true to just test...

   

   Then tried to merge branch.

   Got this error

   
   IFC Merge failed:
   
   /mingw64/libexec/git-core/git-mergetool--lib: line 176: ifcmerge: command not found
   
   merge of git.ifc failed

   BlenderBIM doesn't ship with ifcmerge.exe, you have to download it and put it in your PATH.

   It could be added to the BlenderBIM installer, or at least a setting like the file association. Unfortunately, the way that git handles merges it has to be a separate executable file.
