RE: Re: Any way to apply a filename filter to compare revisions ( or show differences as unified diff)?

The reason we have these files is much the same as you mention, so that
every developer doesn't have to regenerate these files on every build.
However, I think the request for the ability to filter the differences
in a revision comparison goes beyond just convenience for autogenerated
versioned files.

Different stakeholders in a large project have different needs for this
functionality. A configuration manager may need to see what changes are
made to configuration files so that they can be made appropriately to
each environment he's responsible for. A db administrator needs to see
the procedure changes for different dbs made. And tech leads (such as
myself) need to see all changes (but without clutter).

Guess it's a feature request...

.........
To be fair, we do version one class of auto-generated files under TSVN,
and those are the .pot files - the translation source files, which are
auto-generated from xml or rc source files. The reason we version them
is so that translators do not have to have a complete build environment
to create those files themselves.
