Description Jacques Bouthillier

2011-12-02 07:48:03 EST

When performing a review, I noticed a file in a review which is supposed to be different from the file in my workspace. If I open the file from the review, I cannot modify the file. If I open the file from the workspace I am able to modify, but I would like to compare the file in the workspace with the file under the review to see what is different between the file in the workspace and the file in the review. Right now, I cannot compare those two files

Simultaneously, we can have the option to compare two files under the same review. For example, when a file is move to a vew package, we get a file removal and a file added part of the review. We should be able to campare the two files. 
Another option would be when a file is remove, the target location is null and a file is added, then the base is null
If we have the same file name within the same review , we should only create one item out of it since it is only a file moved. So the diff will probably only show the file path difference if nothing else was modified within the file.
