Script ifs_git_diff.cmd/sh

The script ifs_git_diff.cmd/sh is located in component fndbas/build folder, and will in a build home be located in the build folder.

When extracting the changed files between two git commit hashes, the ifs_git_diff script should be used. The script will list all changed files between the fromtag and the totag hashes. The list will be spooled to a file that will be used to copy the files from the git repo to a delivery using ifs_create_build_structure script. Note: The git repo must be checked out on the totag commit hash when copying the actual files.

The script accepts three parameters.

Parameter	Required	Purpose	Examples/Defaults
--gitcheckout	Mandatory	Path to the cloned git repo	--gitcheckout "c:\work\gitrepo"
--fromtag	Mandatory	The commit hash or tag from where the diff start	--fromtag "delivery1"
--totag	Mandatory	Path to the delivery.	--totag "delivery2"
--filelistname	Optional	Name of the file list file. Default: --gitcheckout\..\diff_file_list.txt or --gitcheckout\..\deleted_file_list.txt	--filelistname c:\work\difflist.txt
--deleted	Optional	Will generate a list of deleted files instead of modified/added files.
