GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 641925
Identify svn:externals directories and support re-comparing on them
Last modified: 2017-12-13 18:54:01 UTC
when i compare the working directory of a subversion repository to the last committed version, i would like to see all changes, even those done to externals. (it is not possible to commit those in one transaction, but that makes viewing the changes even more important.) im using meld 1.3.2 from ubuntu 10.10.
I'm not convinced that this is a good idea, given that externals are often used to break up repositories. Traversing these could make Meld a *lot* slower in cases where it's currently working just fine. Having said that, I think it would be nice if we could show that a directory wasn't being traversed precisely because it's an externals definition, and then I *think* that our support for comparing a sub-directory would probably just work.
