Get working revision and if modified by CLI

Hello

Is there a way by command line to get the working revision of a file in my sandbox and if it was modified from the original revision (means appear with Diff in the Sandbox View)?

Many thanks

Kind Regards

Thierry Dalon

      Using si diff with --xmlapi I could workaround the hanging issue for binary files.

      (The --quiet flag does not work as expected here).

      The final solution looks like this:

      %Get working revision using:

      si revisioninfo --revision:working $file

      % Get diff status using:

      si diff -r wrev --xmlapi $file

      % Parsing the xml output to get the status

      I've found a solution using

      si revisioninfo --revision=:working $file

      and

      si diff

        I have an issue with the si diff command on a binary file. It hangs.

        Does anyone know a workaround?
