View Full Version : client file date/time and server file date/time


09-Jan-2004, 09:16 PM
Is there any way to ignore the datetime difference between the client and the server. Here's why. I have a central set of code on my client machine. I update multiple servers with the same set of code. I cannot tell what is different without comparing each file on the server (300+ files) because the date/time is always set to the server time when I upload the changes. So now it's different from my client machine and when I open another BC session, everything is always shows as different and I have to go thru and compare all files again.

Any advice?

Thanks in advance. By the way, I love BC. I use it every day.

Go into the Session menu and select Comparison Control. Uncheck the Check Timestamps option and BC will only compare the file sizes. If you have the bandwith for it, you can switch the Check Size to binary and it will compare the actual file contents.
