Description Peter Pis 2007-04-20 16:07:41 UTC

NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 070420)
1.6.0-rc; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.6.0-rc-b101
Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86
en_GB (nb); Cp1252

Steps:
1. Open versioned controlled project. (cvs)
2. Modify some file the project. 
3. Over the side bar diff invoke popup menu - choose diff icon. Diff shows up.
4. Now commit this file.

Diff still shows the pristine base file, but it was changed by the commit and
therefore no changes are expected.

There are two solutions for this:
* Close Diff
* Refresh base file.

Seems harmless.
