Hi Ben,
I have attached some of the output to the end of this email.
File in /vendors/.... directory is a vendor drop. File in /trunk/...
is copied form the /vendor drop. In this example, I checkout
/trunk/.... Change one file. I do a "svn diff" it shows the change.
This particular file has not changed from vendors to trunk. So a diff
between the vendor URL and the trunk URL is empty. A diff between WC
and trunk URL shows the diff. But when I do a diff between WC and
vendor URL it shows nothing (unless I specify --notice-ancestry)
One additional note from some experimenting today is that, if I
check-in the changes to this file to the trunk, then this problem
vanishes. Next time I make a change on the same file, the diff between
vendor URL and WC works just fine.
Thanks
-Hari
