| 1 | | My current job involves tools which modify a directory tree ("tahoe debug consolidate"), and I'd like to use "tahoe manifest" to compare the before- and after- trees to make sure they're the same. Unfortunately, "tahoe manifest"'s cycle-avoidance code (which simply ignores files or directories that it's seen before) is causing me trouble, since an object that's referenced by multiple places in the tree will appear in the manifest output at only one of them, and that location will depend upon the traversal order. (I just pushed a patch to make deep_traverse at least sort the child names before walking them, so it should now be consistent). |
