Hi all,
Here’s my predicament:
While investigating a bug, I want to get the differences between certain files 
between two versions, but not all files that may have changed.
I can use “F(OSSIL) G(DIFF) filename --FROM version” to compare a single file.
I can use “F(OSSIL) G(DIFF) --FROM version” to compare all files that changed.  
Hundreds of files most of which are irrelevant to the problem.
So, how do I compare only a set (e.g., a single subdirectory)?  When the 
versions are too far apart, hundreds of files may have changed in between.  
But, since I know the problem I’m looking for lies in a specific subset, I want 
to look at only those files.
I tried “F(OSSIL) G(DIFF) subdir/*.mod --FROM version” which gives a 
doesn’t-exist error.  I tried any variation I could think of.  Although I’m 
interested to see differences for a specific set of files matching a mask in a 
specific subdirectory, I even tried to compare the whole subdirectory by 
omitting the mask, but still it gives the same error.
Any way to do this other than trying to manually type every single file to 
check?  Or, is it ONE or ALL?
Thanks.
