SUMMARY
Git mergetool: kdiff3 fails with Data loss error on conflicts on revert hunks

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
In the following scenario git mergetool with kdiff3 always ends up with 'Data
loss error'.
This has been for years - so not a recent regression.
git mergetool -t meld works but of course is not as useful, also vscode can
show the conflicting hunk.

o change A
|
|\
o | revert change A
| o hunk building on change A
|/
. merge attempt shows conflict between two branches


OBSERVED RESULT

git mergetool with kdiff3 as the tool fails. It is always 'Data loss error'.
Cannot share repo as non-public.

EXPECTED RESULT

Kdiff3 starts
