Creating a patch by clicking on a parent folder containing a new package/directory results in files in the package/directory being duplicated in the created patch. How to reproduce: - in a project, create a new package xxx - inside xxx, create a new class yyy - create a patch starting from src directory the created patch will contain the diff for yyy.java twice. ### Eclipse Workspace Patch 1.0 #P TEST Index: src/xxx/yyy.java =================================================================== --- src/xxx/yyy.java (nonexistent) +++ src/xxx/yyy.java (working copy) @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +package xxx; + +public class yyy { + +} Index: src/xxx/yyy.java =================================================================== --- src/xxx/yyy.java (nonexistent) +++ src/xxx/yyy.java (working copy) @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +package xxx; + +public class yyy { + +} This doesn't happen creating the patch by clicking on the new file, but this is not acceptable when there are many files I want to include in a patch (I should click on every single file skipping new directories). This doesn't happen only for java classes, I think for any kind of file (also xhtml in my case). This is happening since I moved to Photon and this wasn't happening with previous releases (Oxygen, Neon, Mars) I worked with.
Can you reproduce the problem on the latest release, Eclipse 2020-06?
(In reply to Rolf Theunissen from comment #1) > Can you reproduce the problem on the latest release, Eclipse 2020-06? Yes I do, on a fresh installed "Version: 2020-06 (4.16.0) - Build id: 20200615-1200". I have to say that I've also installed Subclipse from Marketplace (https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/subclipse).
The bug still happens on Eclipse: "Version: 2021-06 (4.20.0)", "Build id: 20210612-2011"
In the "Create patch" there is now "Next >" button. In the next screen, select "Project". (That seem to "fixed" the issue in my tests. And also "fixed" another brokennes: colleagues couldn't apply patches. Because in the team everyone names projects differently.) Whatever this "Multi-Project Apply Patch wizard" thingy is, it's plainly broken. (And "Create patch" dialog seem to hard default to always preselect "Workspace".) Anyone has any idea how to disable/change it? Thanks.
