>Status: Closed Priority: 3 Submitted By: Nobody (None) >Assigned to: Ville Skyttä (scop-guest) Summary: Useless kompare/cdiff completions - please remove Distribution: --Distribution-Agnostic-- Originally reported in: None Milestone: None >Status: Fix Committed Original bug number: Initial Comment: Anonymous message posted by reave...@gentoo.org Please consider reverting bc6f14445f26043c1c89cbb25caebe394fb7b03b http://git.debian.org/?p=bash-completion/bash-completion.git;a=commitdiff;h=bc6f14445f26043c1c89cbb25caebe394fb7b03b Rationale: Completion accepts only .diff/.patch files while main feature of kompare is to show differences between URLs. Therefore bash-completion makes it considerably less convenient to use kompare as it disallows completion on local files. Which defeats its purpose. $ kompare --help Usage: kompare [Qt-options] [KDE-options] [options] [URL1 [URL2]] - A program to view the differences between files and optionally generate a diff Options: -c This will compare URL1 with URL2 -o This will open URL1 and expect it to be diff output. URL1 can also be a '-' and then it will read from standard input. Can be used for instance for cvs diff | kompare -o -. Kompare will do a check to see if it can find the original file(s) and then blend the original file(s) into the diffoutput and show that in the viewer. -n disables the check. -b This will blend URL2 into URL1, URL2 is expected to be diff output and URL1 the file or folder that the diffoutput needs to be blended into. -n Disables the check for automatically finding the original file(s) when using '-' as URL with the -o option. -e <encoding> Use this to specify the encoding when calling it from the command line. It will default to the local encoding if not specified. Arguments: URL1 [URL2] - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Ville Skyttä (scop-guest) Date: 2010-09-13 21:26 Message: Thanks for the heads up, kompare completion dropped in git. However I don't see any rationale here for dropping cdiff completion and I believe it is still quite useful, so that's still in. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://alioth.debian.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=413095&aid=312708&group_id=100114 _______________________________________________ Bash-completion-devel mailing list Bash-completion-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/bash-completion-devel
