It's due to the line endings being different when the svn checkout is done. But since this is in the linux culture, where every command has 100's of options, I found some flags: this version works well: -r = recursively, -q = just the file names that are different, -Z ignore whitespace at end of line diff -rqZ folder-with-svn folder-from-zip :-) -Marshall > > -- Richard > > On 06.06.2014, at 15:29, Marshall Schor <[email protected]> wrote: > >> On 6/6/2014 5:09 AM, Peter Klügl wrote: >>> tried to compare tag with release... doesn't really work in Eclispe. >> Here's the method I use to do this compare with Eclipse - it mainly involves >> using the Eclipse tool to convert line endings (because that makes most files >> not compare if the checkout is on Windows but the build is on Linux). >> >> 0) make a dir, say t/uimafit-2.1.0, to hold the test artifacts >> 1) check out the tag into a dir, e.g.t/uimafit-2.1.0/svntag >> 2) unzip the source-release into t/uimafit-2.1.0/sources >> >> 3) make a new project in Eclipse (I use one called t (for test) >> 4) add a new folder to this project, but use the advanced options, and make >> it >> be the t/uimafit-2.0.1 folder in the file system >> >> 5) select the svntag folder in the Eclipse Package Explorer, and then use >> Menu >> -> File -> Convert line delimiters to... and pick one. >> 6) repeat with the sources folder. >> >> Now you can click the two folders and use Eclipse's compare with each other >> to >> see how they compare. >> >> -Marshall >
