2013-12-27git-svn: workaround for a bug in svn serf backendLibravatar Roman Kagan1-2/+8
Subversion serf backend in versions 1.8.5 and below has a bug(*) that the function creating the descriptor of a file change -- add_file() -- doesn't make a copy of its third argument when storing it on the returned descriptor. As a result, by the time this field is used (in transactions of file copying or renaming) it may well be released, and the memory reused. One of its possible manifestations is the svn assertion triggering on an invalid path, with a message svn_fspath__skip_ancestor: Assertion `svn_fspath__is_canonical(child_fspath)' failed. This patch works around this bug, by storing the value to be passed as the third argument to add_file() in a local variable with the same scope as the file change descriptor, making sure their lifetime is the same. * [ew: fixed in Subversion r1553376 as noted by Jonathan Nieder] Cc: Benjamin Pabst <benjamin.pabst85@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> Reviewed-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Roman Kagan <rkagan@mail.ru>
2013-05-09Git::SVN::*: add missing "NAME" section to perldocLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-0/+2
lexgrog(1) relies on the NAME section to find a manpage's subject's name and description for easy access later using "man -k". Add the section it expects. Noticed using lintian. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net>

2013-01-19git-svn: do not escape certain characters in pathsLibravatar Peter Wu1-1/+2
Subversion 1.7 and newer implement HTTPv2, an extension that should make HTTP more efficient. Servers with support for this protocol will make the subversion client library take an alternative code path that checks (with assertions) whether the URL is "canonical" or not. This patch fixes an issue I encountered while trying to `git svn dcommit` a rename action for a file containing a single quote character ("User's Manual" to "UserMan.tex"). It does not happen for older subversion 1.6 servers nor non-HTTP(S) protocols such as the native svn protocol, only on an Apache server shipping SVN 1.7. Trying to `git svn dcommit` under the aforementioned conditions yields the following error which aborts the commit process: Committing to http://example.com/svn ... perl: subversion/libsvn_subr/dirent_uri.c:1520: uri_skip_ancestor: Assertion `svn_uri_is_canonical(child_uri, ((void *)0))' failed. error: git-svn died of signal 6 An analysis of the subversion source for the cause: - The assertion originates from uri_skip_ancestor which calls svn_uri_is_canonical, which fails when the URL contains percent-encoded values that do not necessarily have to be encoded (not "canonical" enough). This is done by a table lookup in libsvn_subr/path.c. Putting some debugging prints revealed that the character ' is indeed encoded to %27 which is not considered canonical. - url_skip_ancestor is called by svn_ra_neon__get_baseline_info with the root repository URL and path as parameters; - which is called by copy_resource (libsvn_ra_neon/commit.c) for a copy action (or in my case, renaming which is actually copy + delete old); - which is called by commit_add_dir; - which is assigned as a structure method "add_file" in svn_ra_neon__get_commit_editor. In the whole path, the path argument is not modified. Through some more uninteresting wrapper functions, the Perl bindings gives you access to the add_file method which will pass the path argument without modifications to svn. git-svn calls the "R"(ename) subroutine in Git::SVN::Editor which contains: 326 my $fbat = $self->add_file($self->repo_path($m->{file_b}), $pbat, 327 $self->url_path($m->{file_a}), $self->{r}); "repo_path" basically returns the path as-is, unless the "svn.pathnameencoding" configuration property is set. "url_path" tries to escape some special characters, but does not take all special characters into account, thereby causing the path to contain some escaped characters which do not have to be escaped. The list of characters not to be escaped are taken from the subversion/libsvn_subr/path.c file to fully account for all characters. Tested with a filename containing all characters in the range 0x20 to 0x78 (inclusive). Signed-off-by: Peter Wu <lekensteyn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net>
2013-01-17Git::SVN::Editor::T: pass $deletions to ->A and ->DLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-2/+2
This shouldn't make a difference because the $deletions hash is only used when adding a directory (see 379862ec, 2012-02-20) but it's nice to be consistent to make reading smoother anyway.

2012-10-10git svn: work around SVN 1.7 mishandling of svn:special changesLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-1/+24
Subversion represents symlinks as ordinary files with content starting with "link " and the svn:special property set to "*". Thus a file can switch between being a symlink and a non-symlink simply by toggling its svn:special property, and new checkouts will automatically write a file of the appropriate type. Likewise, in subversion 1.6 and older, running "svn update" would notice changes in filetype and update the working copy appropriately. Starting in subversion 1.7 (issue 4091), changes to the svn:special property trip an assertion instead: $ svn up svn-tree Updating 'svn-tree': svn: E235000: In file 'subversion/libsvn_wc/update_editor.c' \ line 1583: assertion failed (action == svn_wc_conflict_action_edit \ || action == svn_wc_conflict_action_delete || action == \ svn_wc_conflict_action_replace) Revisions prepared with ordinary svn commands ("svn add" and not "svn propset") don't trip this because they represent these filetype changes using a replace operation, which is approximately equivalent to removal followed by adding a new file and works fine. Follow suit. Noticed using t9100. After this change, git-svn's file-to-symlink changes are sent in a format that modern "svn update" can handle and tests t9100.11-13 pass again.
