similar to: I've solved the detached-branch problem

There is now a public reposurgeon repository at: git at gitorious.org:reposurgeon/reposurgeon.git I've tagged 2.0pre9 there, for two purposes: * Charles can verify that I've solved the missing-files problem. * Hartmut can rework the few of his patches I didn't merge into reposurgeon. Charles, our next and final challenge is to generate proper merge commits in the NUT repo

Well, that wasn't as nasty as I feared it would be. Turns out that in the general case it's possible to partition a mixed-branch revision into branch cliques and generate multiple import-stream commits, one for each affected branch. We lose only if the split commit is the source of a later directory copy; I have a check for that that says, basically, "if you see this fatal error,

Dear developers, thanks to Charles (Lepple) and ESR hard work, we are now able to finalize our migration from Subversion to Git, on Alioth. As of now, our Subversion repository on Alioth<https://alioth.debian.org/scm/?group_id=30602>is FROZEN! Any new svn commit may simply be discarded, so beware! Most active developers are currently using github, as a temporary mean. But if you have any

Something like "fix buildbot failures from previous commit" is specific enough, without making the reader look up a specific commit number. The reason is that it will be harder to

Hi Eric, One corner case I ran across when building from a reposurgeon-generated tree is that .gitignore files do not seem to be generated when a directory is created at the same time as its svn:ignore property is set. In NUT, this manifests itself in r3109: http://trac.networkupstools.org/projects/nut/changeset/3109 Trac doesn't show it there, but scripts/avahi was created in that commit,

(Copied to Dave Hart at the NTP project, who's interested in the code's progress for non-NUTty reasons. Dave, the background is that I'm doing a trial conversion of the Network UPS Tools repo.) First, repostreamer per se is dead. As it evolved it kept pulling in more bits of code from reposurgeon until I said "screw it!" and merged the repostreamer logic in as a reposurgeon

I am pleased to be able to report that reposurgeon's Subversion dump stream parser is now working well enough to produce a live git repo from the NUT history up to r3364. This didn't happen easily. The NUT repo is a wonderful test case, and by that I mean it was a stone bitch to get the stream parser to handle it. One class of problems was due to cv2svn, which did things with the

This is taking longer than I expected, because there is all kinds of cvs2svn-generated ugliness in your back history that tends to crash my tools. Your repo makes a great test case. (Yes, I know, that's like having someone say "Your dog is fantastically ugly!") Current state of things is that I have scrapped my precious approach, which was to put the Subversion tools in a Python

Hi, I think it would be easier to understand why you want this if you had a use case for having an svnsync clone. Aside from backing up the repository, it seems like a fairly useless thing: you can't do local commits and then upstream them and you can't do If you want the complete history of the repository, then a git clone of the git-svn mirror will give you this very cheaply and with

Hi all, I have created a branch "reportbuf" in the CVS repository, in which I am experimenting with a new report retrieval system for newhidups. The problem with the old system was that reports were always read into fixed-size buffers; some UPS's would get upset if the buffer was too large, others if the buffer was too small. The new system actually looks at the report descriptor

I have created a git repository for the three metadata files used in the NUT-UPS conversion. The purpose of this is to allow Charles to edit the lift script. The repository is at git at gitorious.org:reposurgeon/nut-conversion.git This supplements the reposurgeon 2.0pre repository at git at gitorious.org:reposurgeon/reposurgeon.git Here is the current state of play: 1. reposurgeon is

I think this trunk-to-branch interior merge should be clean, but the merge logic correctly identifies some missing files in the reposurgeon output (checked in -pre7 and -pre4). They are in SVN on that branch, though (ignoring .gitignore for the time being). I only see one java file in scripts/java/jNut/src/main/java/org/networkupstools/jnut/ from reposurgeon.

Emilien, just saw your commit in Buildbot for testing some Windows changes. That's great that someone is working on this again! We have had a few users ask for updates to the 2.6.5+ version of NUT for Windows. The problem is that we do not have a good branch in Git to work from. The windows_port branch got rebased, but since it has merge commits, it is a bit of a mess. I apologize for

Who knew my core algorithm for associating copy operations with base commits could turn out to be wrong at this late date? Well, not so much "wrong" perhaps, but incomplete. The apparmor branch presented a case I'd never seen before. Explanation in the log comment. The conversion metadata repository continues to be at git at gitorious.org:reposurgeon/nut-conversion.git This

Hi folks, in a rather old thread on this list titled "svnsync of llvm tree" <http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.compilers.llvm.devel/42523> we noticed that an svnsync would fail due to a few particularly big commits that apparently caused OOM conditions on the server. The error and the revision number were consistent for different people. That seems to be fixed now. I succeeded

I've pushed 2.10pre to git at gitorious.org:reposurgeon/reposurgeon.git and there's a new version of the conversion metadata at git at gitorious.org:reposurgeon/nut-conversion.git I'm not entirely happy with the branch link deduction, but I think this is the best we're going to do without manual intervention to break some harmless but spurious parent links. The

Here are a series of my recent changes to NUT. The first few in the set are primarily little fixes and improvements. In among those are a few for .gitignore files which of course you can ignore for SVN, and there's one for a commit to a generated file which of course should not be tracked in any VCS. Then there are a couple or three to do with generating the header files used by
