Choose A as output of merging in KDiff3

Currently I've got stuck with merging files in KDiff. Let's say I have file A and B. A is in the left and B in the right. And now I want to merge file B to A, but when I click Merge Current File button, it shows merge editor with B file as an output of merging. How can I choose A as an output file?

In case you wanted to integrate KDiff3 with Sourcetree to be the external merge tools:

Go to Sourcetree → Preferences → Diff → External Diff/Merge

Merge tool: custom

Merge command: /Applications/kdiff3.app/Contents/MacOS/kdiff3 (or the path to install kdiff3 in Windows)

Arguments: "$LOCAL" "$REMOTE" "$BASE" -o "$MERGED"

From version KDiff3-0.9.89 you can go back to "File" "Open" in the menu and choose to explicitly enter an output file in the "Output (optional)" field, or use one of the choices from the "Swap/Copy Names" control e.g. "Copy B->Output" for your example.
