I'd love to see the this feature in WinCvs and will try to
implement it. This is how it's supposed to work:
- Launch a "cvs diff --brief [-rxxx [-ryyy]]" command as appropriate,
to let the server find out which files have changed
- Parse the output (read lines beginning with "Index:", a simple
getline parser will be fine here)
- Treat the changed files as if they (and not the directory) were
selected in the file view
- Diff 'em one by one
This should be easy to achieve with code that's already been written
and tested: "graph view" uses a similar approach.
Does anyone have suggestions, comments, ideas?
Regards, Kirill
