compare-folder cannot work with ssh fs extention

Hi,

I always develop remotely via ssh fs extension. I want to compare 2 dirs by compare-folder extension. However, the compare-folder extension cannot find Folders. I think this may cause by the compare-folder extension doses not supporting ssh dir. many thanks.

Thank you for the report! Is it the same issue as #81 ?

If you are on linux, you can mount the network file system (e.g. through sftp), if you mount the the network file system through GUI, it will be possibly mounted at /run/user/<uid>/gvfs/... (dragging a file into terminal reveals it's real path), you can then compare them as if on local.
