The api for diff summarize doesn’t support those flags. They are only used by the output generation of the normal diff code.
…. In about the same way as --summarize also changes the output. (But we avoid text transfers on that diff mode) So ‘svn’ could apply some filtering itself, but the --summarize api can’t really do something useful. (It can’t really be optimized to support those flags, the way we create diffs) Bert Sent from Windows Mail From: Julian Foad Sent: Saturday, February 14, 2015 1:41 PM To: 'Subversion Development' Try this in a subversion source WC, using current trunk: $ svn diff --summarize -r1630000:1640000 subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs MM subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs/fs-fs-fuzzy-test.c A subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs/fs-fs-private-test.c M subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs/fs-fs-pack-test.c M subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs $ svn diff --summarize -r1630000:1640000 subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs --properties-only MM subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs/fs-fs-fuzzy-test.c A subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs/fs-fs-private-test.c M subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs/fs-fs-pack-test.c M subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs $ svn diff --summarize -r1630000:1640000 subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs --ignore-properties MM subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs/fs-fs-fuzzy-test.c A subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs/fs-fs-private-test.c M subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs/fs-fs-pack-test.c M subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs The --properties-only and --ignore-properties options have no effect. I call this a bug. (I see the same with 1.8.10 and current trunk.) Desired behaviour: Either: Show the result of stripping out all (prop | non-prop) changes. or Show full information for each path that has any (prop | non-prop) changes. Details: An add or delete or replace is not considered to include a property change, for these purposes, no matter what properties the item had. So, the expected output from the example above would be: $ svn diff --summarize -r1630000:1640000 subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs --properties-only MM subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs/fs-fs-fuzzy-test.c M subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs $ svn diff --summarize -r1630000:1640000 subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs --ignore-properties MM subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs/fs-fs-fuzzy-test.c A subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs/fs-fs-private-test.c M subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs/fs-fs-pack-test.c OR $ svn diff --summarize -r1630000:1640000 subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs --properties-only M subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs/fs-fs-fuzzy-test.c M subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs $ svn diff --summarize -r1630000:1640000 subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs --ignore-properties M subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs/fs-fs-fuzzy-test.c A subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs/fs-fs-private-test.c M subversion/tests/libsvn_fs_fs/fs-fs-pack-test.c Makes sense? I haven't yet looked at which of those behaviours fits better with non-summarizing diff, or with anything else, which I'd want to do before deciding which to go for. - Julian
