Description
Hello,
Your program is very useful is almost all cases but in some rare cases, where the package are built unconventionally, the diff report is not usable.
Let me explain:
In my company, we are building our software/web services "unconventionally", and we are installing each version in a separate folder:
/opt/my_company/my_product/1.0.0/all_my_files...
/opt/my_company/my_product/1.1.0/all_my_files...
/opt/my_company/my_product/1.2.0/all_my_files...
/opt/my_company/my_product/1.3.0/all_my_files...
Between version 1.2.0 and version 1.3.0, it may have few changes.
When I'm running pkgdiff on both RPM (we are using RPM-based Linux servers), ALL files are reported as moved (yes, it's true) with a Delta = 0%
My RFE is to hide these results when we are using the -hide-unchanged option to keep only files with real delta, even if they are moved.
To reach this point, I've changed this part of code:
https://github.com/lvc/pkgdiff/blob/master/pkgdiff.pl#L2171
2169 if($HideUnchanged)
2170 {
2171 if($Info{"Status"} eq "unchanged")
2172 { # do not show unchanged files
2173 next;
2174 }
2175 }
to add:
2169 if($HideUnchanged)
2170 {
2171 if($Info{"Status"} eq "unchanged" or show_number($Info{"Rate"}*100) eq 0)
2172 { # do not show unchanged files
2173 next;
2174 }
2175 }
This let me know which files are modified between two packages ignoring moved file without any modification.
Thank you!
