I was really (really, really) disappointed with XCode's file
difference tool. It's pretty basic. The big functional
disappointment is that it can't ignore CVS file tags (e.g.:
"$Revision: 1.6$") so every file is flagged as different.
Yeah. That is pretty bloody annoying, isn't it? I always strip
those particular markers out of source because they are really
terribly useless unless your software development process is
otherwise utterly broken ...
Yep, that needed to be said. I believe that they are used to show off.
See! I'm using code versioning.
In any case, it is easy to fix:
perl -pi -e 's/\$Id:.*\$//' *.[hcm]
er... I'm confused. I use CVS, but I don't see any tags _within my
files....?!
