broken directory comparisons #114

Open mazerj opened 3 years ago

mazerj commented 3 years ago

Current version of meld for osx seems to no longer traverse directories and do comparisons (for me). Even when directories have clear differences, it reports no differences. Seems to think the directories are empty when their not. To replicate:

 % mkdir foo1 foo2; touch foo1/a foo1/b; cp foo1/a foo2; meld foo1 foo2

On my macbook (running Meld.app 3.21.0.osx3 under Mojave, 10.14.6 (re)installed fresh via brew) this indicates foo1 and foo2 are identical and shows no files inside either folder (see attached screen cap below). FWIW this works as expected (and as it used to work) under linux (mint 18.2). I haven't compared two dirs in a while (usually mostly use for git comparisons), so I'm not sure when this broke.
