The link for the diff command in the svn status window seems to be insensitive to the environmental variable TM_SVN_DIFF_CMD. I have it set to fmdiff, but the link for the diff command in the status window gives me the normal diff output as opposed to launching FileMerge.
I think there are two problems here, 1) shell executions from the HTML window do not get any of the normal environment variables and 2) the status window doesn’t do the normal diff magic we do for the other diff commands.
I can probably look into changing #1. But for #2, one would have to patch the current status command, and I’ve said it before, but this one needs refactoring before it should be further patched (the current version does have a few problems, but it’s complexity have prevented me from fixing it).
I would like to see all renderings of the Subversion bundle to be based on ERb templates, all svn output to be XML [1], separate stand- alone parser modules per svn output kind, etc.
I will probably end up being the one who refactors the Subversion bundle, but it’s not something I have time for anytime soon.
[1] A problem with the XML output option is that if we use standard XML tools to process it, we lose incremental rendering of the commands.
