It's a false alarm.
The script is looking at the file size, and assuming the contents are different if the size is different. For these files:
boost/mpi/detail/mpi_datatype_primitive.hpp different size boost/mpi/detail/packed_oprimitive.hpp different size
The size is different (and I've used several ways to look at the sizes) even though contents are the same.
I'll track down what is happening and fix the script to avoid the problem in the future.
Ha! Those two files differ at the binary level. The one in branches/release has lines terminated with 0x0d 0x0a, while the one in trunk is all 0x0a terminations.
Scratching my head... doesn't the script work on *checked-out* copies? Because in that case svn:eol-style (set to native)...
That's a good question! As an experiment, I deleted the file from both my working copies, then updated the directories to get fresh copies. This time both are the same length, and both use CR/LF line terminations. That's as expected given the machine runs Windows. I'll do a fresh checkout of my trunk working copy. It is an old one that may have checked out some files before our svn:eol-style processing was finalized. Thanks for bringing this up! --Beman
