While this example works on Unix file systems, it will not provide the same output on Windows.
|
|
This is due to different file handling on Windows.
|
|
When executing this command, you will see *all* files being modified between the most recent and the second-most recent commit.
|
|
On a technical level, this is correct given the underlying file handling on Windows, and chapter :ref:`chapter_gitannex` will shed light on why that is.
|
|
|
|
For now, to get the same output as shown in the code snippet below, use the following command where ``main`` (or ``master``) is the name of your default branch:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
$ datalad diff --from main --to HEAD~1
|
|
|
|
The ``--from`` argument specifies a different starting point for the comparison - the ``main`` or :term:`master` :term:`branch`, which would be the starting point on most Unix-based systems.
