However, if I've made changes AND there are changes in the HEAD brance
(a true merge) then it becomes a total mess, as again ALL arrows go
left to right. Doing the same compare in XCode 2.5 produces the
correct results, and the same exact version of FileMerge is launched
in BOTH cases (2.4). Even BBEdit is getting it wrong when invoked by
XCode 3.1.

I'm not completely sure I'm following you correctly :-) but if you go to the "SCM" preferences in Xcode (and please take careful note of the product name's capitalization :-)), there's a setting for "Display local files on the:". I don't use Xcode or FileMerge for comparisons, but on my setup, that popup is set to "Right". If yours is different, perhaps that explains your observed behavior?


So is this a bug in XCode? A bad setting I have someplace? Is there a workaround?

I do virtually all of my svn work in BBEdit, with the remainder from the command line. Since you have BBEdit, you could try the built-in svn tools and see if they work for you. Another option to consider might be Cornerstone, which presents a really nice GUI for working with svn repositories and working copies.


Good luck,

R.

Someday I'll look back on all this and laugh... until they sedate me.
