- select a file
- Compare With / Revision
- choose a different revision
- it shows the diffs
- select the revision and choose Get Contents
- the workspace contents are replaced
- the left editor pane of the compare editor still shows the old workspace 
contents

Couldn't figure out how to make it work
Comment 2 Michael Valenta CLA 2002-09-09 16:40:12 EDT
Reopening
Comment 3 Michael Valenta CLA 2002-12-06 10:10:38 EST
A related problem is that loading a new revision from elsewhere (i.e. Replace 
with Branch or Version) will not update the loaded revision in an open revision 
compare editor. 
Comment 4 Michael Valenta CLA 2004-03-24 16:26:42 EST
The comparison is now shown in a dialog so this doesn't apply anymore.
