Hi Team, I was wondering, is there a mechanism to detect file content changes in FOSSology(when the filenames are same). For instance, suppose there are three files described below
File1: some source code or a jar File2: exact copy of File1 with name changed to File2 File1: modified or updated version of File1 ( basically File1 content is modified) When we scan File1 using FOSSology it detected licenseA (we found that licenseA is not correct, we changed it to licenseB and updated). When we scan File2 using FOSSology it detected licenseB ( we think that FOSSology is creating a hash of the content of File1 and the value obtained is licenseB, when it found the same hash using File2 It has detected the license to be licenseB). When we scan File1(modified version of File1) FOSSology has detected licenseA. So, is there a possibility to detect file content change when the file names are same, somewhere in UI or in DB. Thanks, Praneeth.
