| [subversive-dev] New problems when using "Compare with branch..." |
Hi, our users still encounter problems with the "compare with branch..." feature (cf. previous threads [1] and [2]). There are many use cases leading to false positive and even wrong results when comparing the working copy with a branch. These use cases involve deep hierarchies of folders with complex combinations of conflicting changes made remotely and/or locally. Here I describe only a few of these use cases. Hoping that fixing these ones will be enough to fix the others. The file fakeproject_svnrepo.tar.gz attached contains a sample SVN repo that reveals the following problems. Extract it somewhere and then import the trunk into eclipse. Then start a comparison with "mybranch". - Main.java is shown as an incoming change although there is no difference (this is bug [326694]) - SameContent.java is shown as an incoming deletion while it should not shown at all because there is no difference (this is bug [326694] but this time without common ancestry) - DifferentContent.java is shown as an incoming deletion while it should be shown as an incoming change or a conflict Using: Eclipse neon Subversive SVN Team Provider 4.0.2.I20160902-1700 SVNKit 1.8.12 Implementation (Optional) 6.0.1.I20160627-1700 I'm already trying to investigate this by myself but I would really appreciate some help from experts. I'd also be happy if someone could tell me how to debug easily. I'm still new to Eclipse debugging. Last time I had to debug subversive I used Eclipse's RCP debugger and I had to re-spawn the whole workbench each time I make a change in subversive's code. Is there a more efficient way to test my changes?
