Hi,
svn diff does not work very well with 2 local folders, so I am trying to do this diff using diff locally.
since there's a bunch of meta files in an svn directory, I want to do a diff that excludes everything EXCEPT *.java files. there seems to be only an --exclude option, so I'm not sure how to do this.
perhaps, we can use find and execute diff on each .java
or
we can do a grep after we get our result (filter to only .java diffs), but that'd be tricky.
this is what I have so far.
diff -r --exclude=.svn dir1/ dir2/ > diffs.txt
there are simply too many types of files to filter using only the --exclude option.
anyone have thoughts?
