We can add this option to the javacvs API, it should be no big deal, scheduling for future. If you need the code there ASAP feel free to provide a patch to DiffCommand and we will eventually integrate it. |
Hi, I am building an application that requires me to diff between local source and a revision tag. If any local files are removed or added, then the diff does not pick up the changes because the -N switch is not present in the API. DiffCommand dc = new DiffCommand(); dc.getOptString(); /** * String returned by this method defines which options are available for this particular command */ public String getOptString() { return "Rlr:D:k:wBbicu"; //As you can see there is no provision made for the -N switch } This works from the other GUI and command line CVS apps, but not from JavaCVS. I will be very grateful if you guys can fix this and make a new release or perhaps let send me the new classes or whatever, because I really cant make any progress with my app without this switch. Kind Regards, Marno Roux mroux21@gmail.com
