show only matched top level folders?

[Guest]

Is it possible to show only those folders at the .\ level that have a matching folder regardless of it's contents?

Example:
on the left I have:
.\a\a1
.\c\c1

on the right I have:
.\a\a1
.\a\a2
.\b\b1
.\c\c1
.\c\c2
.\c\c3

I would want to see all of the .\a* folders and all of the .\b* folders based on the top level (.\a & .\c) matching, but exclude the .\b as it only exists on the right.

Sorry, I don't think it is possible to do this.

BC's current filtering (Orphans, Mismatches, etc) is all based on file comparison results. The only other related filtering option is View|Always Show Folders. I don't think either of these provide a good way to only show folders that are on both sides while ignoring the folder contents.

Hi guys, first post on the forum.

The reason I am here is because I have a question similar to the one above.

We use Tortoise/SVN as our source control however this leaves a _svn folder in each directory of the project. When comparing I would like BC to ignore these folders.

Is there any way to achieve this?

Thanks in advance.

Ric.

Yes, it is possible to do this. To ignore a single folder, right click it and select "Exclude".

To ignore all folders named _SVN at any location, enter the filter -_SVN\ into the Filters: toolbar.
