I agree this would be a nice feature, as cruft's reports can easily get unreadable because of their size. However cruft does not have a notion of "tree", it just processes lists of filenames. Consequently, making it recognize whether a whole subtree is implicated, would be rather difficult. I'm not saying "impossible", because both lists of implicated and existing files are available. However my algorithmic skills are not good enough to attempt writing an efficient implementation myself. I will happily accept patches, though. In the meantime, you can have a look at #291823 and its blocker bug, for a crude UI to cruft reports. regards, Marcin -- Marcin Owsiany <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://marcin.owsiany.pl/ GnuPG: 1024D/60F41216 FE67 DA2D 0ACA FC5E 3F75 D6F6 3A0D 8AA0 60F4 1216 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
