Bug ID: 433175
Summary: (Multiple versions) Directories with binary-equal
contents indistinguishable from differing ones
Product: kdiff3
Version: 1.8.x
Platform: Debian testing
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal

Confusing/Useless-indicators of (un)modified directory contents
SUMMARY
In both Debian Stable and Testing, kdiff3's directory/file listing has no way
to visually distinguish between these directories with binary-equal files or
those with changes, requiring the user (me) to expand and examine... every
folder.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Duplicate entire project
2. Make changes to only a few files in some subdirs, and not others
3. Diff the projects
OBSERVED RESULT
No difference even one directory up to distinguish if the contents are
binary-equal.
EXPECTED RESULT
There should be some indicator to tell if one must look into a folder to see
files with changes. These files have the same mod time too -- they're not just
binary-equal.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
