Re: is there a stable meld branch/tag which skips entries in .gitignore?

Removing gschemas.compiled solved it. Much appreciated!

Hi

I want the functionality existing in tag 3.11.0 where meld skips scanning files/directories listed in the .gitignore files (VC mode). 

Problem is, in 3.11.0 I encounter funky behavior where alt+up and alt+down will select an entire line and move it up/down in the file! I see it as unwanted (and even dangerous!) behavior since alt+up/down is used to jump between the different diff sections. Is this a intentional? 

 

This is fixed in current master.

So basically I'm looking for _any_ stable meld version which skips .gitignore entries. Is this supported on any of the other branches (1.6, 1.8) ?

We've always skipped .gitignore files, but not folders. That's only in 3.11.x.

 

As master is a child of 3.11.0, I figured it's included. Problem is, it's crashing (see below). 

Any advice?

You need to regenerate your gsettings schema. If you're running meld from a checkout, just rm data/gschemas.compiled and Meld will recreate it, or you can manually run `glib-compile-schemas data/`. If you've installed it then it should have run this command in your global gsettings folder anyway.
