Question

In a recent code review, the first(and only at that point) changeset had a file that was deleted. The diff for this file showed all red (as I would expect) both in the By Changeset view, and also when viewing By File

When more changesets were added to the review, the deleted file shows "(No changes)" when viewing By File, but the changeset it was deleted in still shows the correct information when viewing By Changeset.

The expected behavior is that a deleted file should still show as being deleted even when viewing the changes by file across multiple changesets.

UPDATE

I have another review where the same "no changes" behavior was exhibited, but this time there was no deleted file!.

There are 3 changesets on the review, and in the first one, File A doesn't show up because it had no changes. However, in the last one, file A has changes. When viewed "By File" however, file A is indicated as having no changes.

One thing I noticed this time, (relevant or not) is that File A is the only one having trouble, even though there are other files in the last changeset that are not in the first that are working correctly. File A is also the first file listed in the last changeset.

Answer 1

We've fixed a large number of problems with By File view for Kiln 2.2, including several where files would not be shown or have incorrect diffs. I'm hopeful that the issue you're hitting is one of them. If you're still experiencing issues once we push Kiln 2.2 live over the next week, please let me know, and we'll take a harder look at this particular problem.

Answer 2

I've got a review right now that has files that were added and removed by changesets in the review. These files show up in by-files with "no changes", but I would expect them to not even appear in the list.
