SVN diff - option ' --summarize '

Whenever I use 

svn diff --summarize

I get something like :

A        *mylinkhere*
M        *mylinghere*

What are those beginning letters (eg A, M) for?

Solution

  • After comparing the result of svn diff with the result of svn diff --summarize I found out that :

    • D - deleted
    • A - added
    • M - modified
    • MM - file content modified & svn properties modified

    There where also a couple of 2M's ( MM ) which I still do not know what they stand for, but if I'll do, I'll come back and modify the answer.

    @LaurentH. thanks for your help.
