Hi,
we experienced some strange problems here where far fewer files were
being reported as changed in a diff in tortoise and in the command
line svn. Investigating it a bit, I think there's a bug in how
tortoise parses unified diffs. Tortoise doesn't list any files changed
after it encounters lines *inside* a hunk starting '---'. The lines
that triggered this for us were deleted sql comments (first '-' is
delete, followed by '--' for the sql comment)
Its easy to reproduce the problem. Create two files, test1.txt,
test2.txt containing these two lines:
-- this line will trip up tortoise
this one is ok
Commit these. Now edit *both* files to remove the first line, and
commit. We're editing both lines here because tortoise won't report
the second file in the diff, but I don't know which it'll report
first; making both files trigger the bug means tortoise will omit a
file either way.
Now show the log for the dir, and compare the two revisions you just
committed. Tortoise will only show one file changed, but the diff
output on the command line is:
$ svn diff -r 9676:9677 http://glacvs/svn/logbugz
Index: trunk/test2.txt

I'd report this as a bug but the bug tracker appears to be down
("Flyspray was unable to connect to the database. Check your settings
in flyspray.conf.php")
Any thoughts?
Cheers,
Baz
