Silent ini file creation in the current directory #1866

If try to use Winmerge from the GitExtensions:

WinMergeU.exe -cfg Backup/EnableFile=0 -inifile "%USERPROFILEe%/.gitext.winmerge.ini" ...

It would create %USERPROFILEe% directly in a git working copy you are selected to run from because no such a variable exist (mistake in the name). Pretty buggy behaviour.

But I have to use the -inifile because there is no option to use -cfg without overwriting the global configuration (I want to disable backup from the command line without touching the global config).

Another problem here is that the -inifile loads default configuration and I need each time to reconfigure it to values I want as in the global config.
