(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***) Package: cervisia Version: KDE 3.0.6 CVS/CVSup/Snapshot Severity: wishlist Installed from: Compiled sources Compiler: gcc 2.95.2 OS: Linux OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified I really like kompare's diff view (kdesdk/kompare). I think it gives a better overview over the changes made. So I think it would be nice if cervisia could use this view or may be offer it as an option. Thanks Christian Loose (Submitted via bugs.kde.org)
This is already implemented as an option! :) goto: Settings -> Configure Cervisia ... -> Diff -> External diff frontend and type kompare That's it!
Yes, I know. As I wrote this BR, I thought about using kompare's KPart but I think this is too complicated. But your solution isn't quite what I wanted either. :-) With your solution kompare is called like this: kompare file1 file2 But this way, kompare only shows the code parts of the file that were changed and there are no command-line options to change this AFAIK. I know that there are a lot of changes in the make_it_cool-branch and I think the needed functionality is one of them. But the 'External diff' entry for kompare will then be more complicated. I have something like this in mind to make it easier to use kompare: [*] Use Kompare to display differences between revisions [ ] Use internal diff view [ ] Use external diff programm [ ] Christian
I have to rethink if this functionality is really needed since Kompare HEAD works much better in combination with the existing diff program option (see comment #1).
