BUG: Compare utility broken with nested packages
« on: October 09, 2009, 08:20:37 pm »
Hi,

Yet another bug regarding version control.
I've setup version control with TFS and used the option "Save nested version controlled packages to stubs only (recommended)"
Then I have controlled all packages in a model tree so that there are controlled nested packages.
Then I tried the option "Package Control/Compare with controlled version" on a package containing controlled subpackages.
This showed me a whole heap of of "Model only" attributes, links, tagged values etc...
When I try a Compare on the individual sub-packages then I don't get any differences.

Steps to reproduce
- Create package (packageA)
- Create package (packageB) as nested package of packageA
- control both packages in TFS (or another vc system I guess) using the option "nested packages as stubs"
- Compare packageA with the controlled version
- Notice all the "model only" differences.

Reported to Sparx
