I am trying to merge branches in my project. I saw the error related to the store working folder data inside working folders not being set. I was getting an exception error about the object not being set. Set the flag and now I get a new exception error. Value cannot be null (Parameter name: path1). I checked the directories on both the origin and the target folders and they are set. They are inherited from the higher folder.
I have attached a screen shot of the problem

This bug has been fixed in the 2.1 release, which will be available later this fall.
In the meantime, there is a workaround: The bug never happens if you go to Tools/Options and make sure the "Store working folder data inside working folders" checkbox is checked.
Note that whenever you change this checkbox, you need to be very careful. All of your files will turn "unknown". You should probably first make sure everything in your working folder is checked in, or back it up. Delete your working folder. Flip the checkbox. Do a Get Latest to re-fetch everything into the working folder.
It's tedious, but it's a workaround.

Darn -- my apologies. I apparently mis-read your note and gave you a completely useless suggestion.
Unfortunately, however, this leaves me with no obvious response to the original problem. I suppose it is possible that you have found a new bug.
Let me look at the code again and get back to you.
