Hi

I would like to find the diff between two folders:

Ex:
Folder:1
html.java
go.java
ten.java

Folder:2html.java
go.java
ten.java
you.java

Questions comes:
Folder:1 contains a files with old version, know the files were modified and updated with the new version in Folder2.

I need to find out the script that prints the difference and versions, lastdate modified, if any code changes have done!

Can any one let me know if you have done the same

Regards

I do not know how you get versioning information on your system, so I'll pretend ident does what is needed.v try something like this

Code:

#!/bin/ksh

find /path/to/folder1 -print | \
while read file 
do
    echo "\n\n-----------------------------------"
    ls -l "$file"
    ident "$file"
    file2=/path/to/folder2/"`basename $file`"
    ls -l "$file2"
    ident "$file2"
    diff "$file" "$file2"
done > ~/diff.lis

Hi Jim,

Thanks for your effort. i do version with CVS. and after checking out from cvs from two different baraches i need to compare the two braches in cvs i use command like " cvs rdiff -s -r Release_1 -r Release_1.1 > diff.txt"

by using the above command i will get the details of the two releases in the diff.txt. Know i need to print the results from this diff.txt file like
1) Version
2) date modified
3) code change details (i.e, line numbers)

so, if any one has done the script for the above can you please share with me.

Regards
Krishna
