Item10563: Task updates by svn commits breaks compare
Priority: Normal
Current State: No Action Required
Released In: n/a
Target Release: n/a
The automatic updates of commits into topics breaks things. The %TOPICINFO line remains at whatever rev, it is not incremented even though RCS is updated.

The actual topic text: (% changed to x to prevent the TOPICINFO line from being swallowed)
[gac@foswiki ~]$ head (...path...)/data/Tasks/Item10537.txt

To improve tailoring of the InstallationGuide shipped with Foswiki, split it into two parts.
So the TOPICINFO disagrees with RCS.
compare
script fails:
http://foswiki.org/bin/compare/Tasks/Item10537?rev1=2;rev2=3 - compare uses the TOPICINFO rev. and gets stuck on rev 1.
Difference: Item10537 (r1 vs. r1)
To improve tailoring of the InstallationGuide? shipped with Foswiki, split it into two parts
rdiff
works
Difference: Item10537 (3 vs. 2)

Added
FoswikiStore component. This is somewhat related to the inconsistent use of TOPICINFO and RCS revision information.
