Hello,
I'm using a development version (master) of meld that I cloned from git
last night with Python 2.7.9 on Windows 7.
I found that the CVS/SVN keyword filter didn't work for me to ignore SVN
keywords. That is, things like e.g.,
$Id: sqlfinder.py 185 2011-07-14 17:39:33Z izzy $
vs.
$id$
were not ignored in the file and directory comparison. The default
regex filter setting for CVS/SVN keywords is
$\w+(:[^\n$]+)?$
Changing the regex filter to
\$\w+(:[^\n\$]+)?\$
so that each dollar sign is delimited with a backslash enables it to
recognize and successfully filter out the SVN keywords. Without the
backslash, the dollar sign is recognized as a special character in the
regexp meaning "match end of string". I think this can be fixed by
changing the line in data/org.gnome.meld.gschema.xml from
("CVS/SVN keywords", false, "\$\\w+(:[^\\n$]+)?\$"),
to
("CVS/SVN keywords", false, "\\$\\w+(:[^\\n\\$]+)?\\$"),
i.e., by doubling the back slashes before each $.
Finally, I'd like to say that Meld is an awesome tool. Thanks for
making and maintaining it!
Thanks,
Stead Kiger
