I think the original report was an issue when files don't have `\n` at the end of the last line. I've fixed that on branch `db/8060`
To test this, make a local git repo and commit files to it. Have the last line with or without a trailing newline to see what the diff looks like. `echo -n 'aabc' > foo.txt` or ` >> foo.txt` is way to append to a file without a newline. `nano` and `vim` make it pretty hard to save files without a trailing newline actually. --- ** [tickets:#8060] Commit overview and diff changes are a bit messed up** **Status:** open **Milestone:** unreleased **Created:** Thu Feb 25, 2016 12:35 AM UTC by Sworddragon **Last Updated:** Mon Feb 29, 2016 08:43 PM UTC **Owner:** nobody For example in this commit ( https://sourceforge.net/p/tvoip/code/ci/e5b776d7226deb0db4db85e666eaf1d0eb63259f/ ) on the file /src/index.css the diff shows that the line " position: absolute;" has been removed and immediately it shows that the line " position: absolute;" has been added. Also the overview shows changes on directories just because files in it have changed. But the changed file implies this already so this redundant information could be removed for a better overview. At last I'm seeing for example in this commit ( https://sourceforge.net/p/tvoip/code/ci/24a8c42d51511a9f209f505b5f80721815235596/ ) that the file src/lib/string_to_json.js has been copied to src/lib/throw_exception.js. I wonder where the information has been gained from that exactly this file has been copied as technically src/lib/throw_exception.js is just a newly added file. In reality I have indeed copied and modified a random file but at other commits where I have done the same the overview shows correctly that they are newly added files. --- Sent from forge-allura.apache.org because dev@allura.apache.org is subscribed to https://forge-allura.apache.org/p/allura/tickets/ To unsubscribe from further messages, a project admin can change settings at https://forge-allura.apache.org/p/allura/admin/tickets/options.
