Just to add to this, I am using Eclipse 2.1
RC1. I *do* have the
"compare file contents" checked.
One thing I just noticed is that when I check "ignore white space"
it pretty much works. But, why should that have anything to do
with it when these are files that I had previously copied from the
server? They should contain no differences, white space or
otherwise. Bug maybe?
Thank You,
Bob Byron

Subject: [eclipse-dev] How do I get file content comparison in
CVS.
I would like eclipse to compare my local project
against the project
on a server. I have a project (under eclipse)
on my workstation that
has been synchronized with the server project. Everything is
100%
identical, then I "disconnect" and delete CVS
metadata. When I
"share project" again, I want eclipse to compare
the contents of the
local file with the contents of the server file and
decide based on the
file's contents if it needs to be updated.
Instead, eclipse is simply
stating the file is in "conflict".
How do I get a file
contents comparison?
Thank You,
Bob
