Compare backups/ list of added files

I’m trying to compare which files have changed between two backups. I’m using the new GUI, and I found that I need to open the Commandline section and select compare in the next window. This works, but the result only shows a short list of files and then ends with “… and 172 more”.

What I really need is a complete list of all added, modified, and deleted files.
In older documentation I found references to the option, but the current version says that is deprecated and that I should use or instead. However, using these options doesn’t change the output — I still only get the truncated list ending with “… and XXX more”.

For me, this feels like a very basic and essential function: knowing exactly what changed between two backups is crucial for understanding what’s happening in the system. It would be even better if this kind of information were available directly in the GUI, without having to switch to the commandline view.

Is there any way to get a full, untruncated list of all added/modified/deleted files when comparing two backups?

Thanks a lot!

The compare command has a “–full-result” option. Works for me.
