Hello everyone. I am looking into updating Diffuse
(http://diffuse.sourceforge.net/) to work with Fossil. However,
Fossil's behaviour with renamed files is causing some difficulties for
me. I want the tool to discover which files the user has modified,
added, removed, or renamed in the working directory and in a specified
commit.
"fossil changes" tells me most of what I want to know
about changes to the working directory but it doesn't tell me the
original name of renamed files. How can I determine the original name
of a renamed file?
Similarly, "fossil timeline <rev> -n 1
-t ci -showfiles" tells me most of what I want to know about a specific
revision but it describes renamed files as "DELETED". I also want to
know the new name of the renamed file. Is the current behaviour
a bug? Is there a different command or command line option I should
use to discover this information?
Below is the behaviour I see with the latest release of Fossil (1.24) under
Linux.
Cheers,
Derrick
