I suspect that the fix could be backported, but it's not trivial
behaviour-wise, so I wouldn't apply it to the 1.8.x release series. In
reality, I imagine a backport would work fine if you wanted to apply the
change locally.
The original patch is:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/meld/commit/meld/dirdiff.py?id=de159dcde56950d99d333c1fe096c5d393bfa4b0
Subsequent patches in that series (pushed on the same day) simplified that
a little, and may make the final diff easier to apply.
cheers,
Kai

It should not! That's a left over regression from some gtksourceview
porting I did a while back, so thanks for spotting it. This should now be
fixed in master.
cheers,

Hy,
I'm useing kdesvn and find meld that looks so great that I want to use
it as default for managing my working copies.
Unfortunately when I try to submit some code I have this message :
svn: E215004: Authentication failed and interactive prompting is
disabled; see the --force-interactive option
svn: E215004: ?chec de la propagation (commit), d?tails :
svn: E215004: Unable to connect to a repository at URL
'http://xxxxxx.net/svn/xxxx/trunk/mmmmmm/wwwww'
svn: E215004: No more credentials or we tried too many times.
Authentication failed
Exit code: 1
It works with kdesvn, by cli and with multiple svn releases and
different server but it doesn't work with meld. Where could it come from?
regards

Subject: changes in meld 1.8 +
Message-ID: <53B6DE88 10301 laposte net>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed
Recently I upgraded my distro.
It now ships with meld 1.8.2, and I just tried using the new meld.
Unfortunately, numerous regressions.
(Note that I also tried versions 1.8.5 and 3.11.1 from the download
page, which show the same regressions.)
1) The most important, the ability to hide lines in directory mode is
lost. This was an invaluable feature. It allowed much more reliable
working through numerous changes to large sets of files, particularly
for porting some changes across versions which will remain different.
Please note that the meld users manual ? folder comparison ? filtering,
under "explicit hiding" and "case sensitivity" says that toolbar buttons
are available for this purpose.
So maybe this was an accidental oversight ?
2) The layout of the comparison page seems somewhat strange :
2a) The title of the tab is uselessly repeated.
2b) The large oversized icons take up a lot of screen space. Small
icons would be as useful, if any are wanted.
2c) The entry of file/directory paths + names is limited to about 20
characters, grossly insufficient for many comparisons. (Almost all in
my usages.) The older layout of file name fields one above the other
was much more useful.
2d) Entering a second file/directory name does not take advantage of the
previous name entered. Also, an entered name can not be copied to
another name field, very useful for paths that are very similar.
3) The changes are not localized. Hopefully that will come soon.
However there are some pluses, such as showing size + modification date,
and allowing comparing only by name/size/date instead of each character.
Both very useful.
It is just that not being able to hide lines (the first point) is a huge
disadvantage in analyzing 2 directory trees containing many hundreds of
files.
A show-all button would be useful as well, making it easier to clean up
file sets with backup files, etc
If you would like me to file bug(s) for any of these, please let me
know. (I'm now subscribed to the list.)
Regards
