File Comparison and Directory Comparison behave different for line endings.
I have attached a zip with Folder1/main.c and Folder2/main.c If I do "meld Folder2 Folder1" then I get the message "empty folders" that means the folders seem to be identical. See Screenshot1.jpg If I do "meld Folder2/main.c Folder1/main.c" then I get the message "files differ in line endings only" that means the files are different in line endings. See Screenshot2.jpg The files "main.c" are different in line endings. File comparison seems to detect this, but Directory Comparison does not. Would be great if Directory Comparison also detects and shows different file endings. Btw: does the text "empty folders" used in Directory Comparison mean identical folders? If so, it would be nice to get the message "Folders have no differences" like when I activate the "Same" Button in the Toolbar see Screenshot3.jpg. |
