OS: Ubuntu 10.04
Meld: 1.8.1
Subversion Client: 1.6.6
Subversion Server: 1.6.5
Having upgraded to Meld 1.8.1 I opened a repository comparison, it displayed my directory tree but when requesting a comparison of a modified file it compared the local file to a blank file.
I jumped into the source tree that had been downloaded but when running Meld from its source it did not even list “Subversion” as an available Version Control type just “Subversion 1.7”
I have had to modify vc/__init__.py, I commented out lines 87 and 88 (in get_vcs)
# if depth > max_depth and vc.VC_ROOT_WALK:
# vcs, max_depth = [], depth
Having done that it started identifying my directory tree and a “Subversion” repository but the file comparison still compared against a blank file, to get that working I had to comment out line 75 of svn.py (in get_path_for_repro_file)
# path = path[len(self.root) +1:]
Not sure that this constitutes a patch so much as a hack to get my local version working.
Cheers
Ben
