Get working revision and if modified by CLI

[tdalon]

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

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?

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
