Then I think you need to seriously look at the RMB menu on the files.

If I see that there is a change and RMB on that file, the only option I see is show changes. If there is an option to compare with Revision I do not see it listed in the RMB context menu.

Personally I can’t vouch for others, but when we see that local and remote has changed and the is an option to show changes we expect that it is going to show the changes from local to remote.

And like all Eclipse plugins that I have used there are clear indications as to when it is going to compare locally, as compared to comparing with SVN .

This program is confusing enough without that distinction, and making it hard for us to learn the program.

And it would be extremely nice if there was an Eclipse plugin that worked like Subversive or Subclipse. Subversive is the most popular SVN plugin and the way it works shits all over smartSVn as far as ease of use goes.

Sorru but Show Changes should compare local to remote, and there should be show changes locally as being clearly marked as being so.

What kind of Compare are you doing? Show changes only works locally, so not
seeing remote changes is expected behavior (though we have an RFE here to
automatically perform remote compare, if no local changes are present). Does
Compare with Revision also not work for you?

What causes code loss?
