10.5: Compare Time Machine backups to original drive
Authored by: wfolta on Nov 23, '07 12:18:19PM

Ummm... you really should not report an issue that you cannot yourself confirm.

Until the original poster posts specific error messages and procedures, I am skeptical that they are in fact seeing something other than what they reported. My backup is perfect, though I did get messages out of diff that took investigation to see that diff was somehow confused.

I've installed a couple dozen applications from DMG files, for example, with no errors. Please wait until there are multiple confirmations of an issue before you try to smear it all over front pages of other sites -- without even confirming it yourself.

10.5: Compare Time Machine backups to original drive

Well, I tested it and confirmed it. It wasn't hard.
Regardless of diff's flaws, it's still easy to find files that have changed but not backed up.
