Copying files back to working folder

Closed this issue · 1 comments

How about patching the script, so that if you're comparing against the working directory, it would copy back all the changes to the working directory. Or, set temporary files as symbolic links (problem with mingw version though...).

This fits the workflow of "diff against revision, pick what you want from it if you see that it fits".

I understand the desire for this feature, but hesitate to do this because in all other contexts, a diff will not result in files being modified.

Perhaps I will investigate when I have a few spare hours.

Thanks,
Tim
