80 dircmp(a,b,ignore=None,hide=None)
81 A and B are directories.
82 IGNORE is a list of names to ignore,
83 defaults to ['RCS', 'CVS', 'tags'].
84 HIDE is a list of names to hide,
85 defaults to [os.curdir, os.pardir].
87 High level usage:
88 x = dircmp(dir1, dir2)
89 x.report() -> prints a report on the differences between dir1 and dir2
91 x.report_partial_closure() -> prints report on differences between dir1
92 and dir2, and reports on common immediate subdirectories.
93 x.report_full_closure() -> like report_partial_closure,
94 but fully recursive.
96 Attributes:
97 left_list, right_list: The files in dir1 and dir2,
98 filtered by hide and ignore.
99 common: a list of names in both dir1 and dir2.
100 left_only, right_only: names only in dir1, dir2.
101 common_dirs: subdirectories in both dir1 and dir2.
102 common_files: files in both dir1 and dir2.
103 common_funny: names in both dir1 and dir2 where the type differs between
104 dir1 and dir2, or the name is not stat-able.
105 same_files: list of identical files.
106 diff_files: list of filenames which differ.
107 funny_files: list of files which could not be compared.
108 subdirs: a dictionary of dircmp objects, keyed by names in common_dirs.
