2014-04-23t9117: use --prefix "" instead of --prefix=""Libravatar Kyle J. McKay1-4/+4
Versions of Perl's Getopt::Long module before 2.37 do not contain this fix that first appeared in Getopt::Long version 2.37: * Bugfix: With gnu_compat, --foo= will no longer trigger "Option requires an argument" but return the empty string. Instead of using --prefix="" use --prefix "" when testing an explictly empty prefix string in order to work with older versions of Perl's Getopt::Long module. Also add a paragraph on this workaround to the documentation of git-svn itself. Signed-off-by: Kyle J.

2014-04-19Git 2.0: git svn: Set default --prefix='origin/' if --prefix is not givenLibravatar Johan Herland1-8/+8
git-svn by default puts its Subversion-tracking refs directly in refs/remotes/*. This runs counter to Git's convention of using refs/remotes/$remote/* for storing remote-tracking branches. Furthermore, combining git-svn with regular git remotes run the risk of clobbering refs under refs/remotes (e.g. if you have a git remote called "tags" with a "v1" branch, it will overlap with the git-svn's tracking branch for the "v1" tag from Subversion. Even though the git-svn refs stored in refs/remotes/* are not "proper" remote-tracking branches (since they are not covered by a proper git remote's refspec), they clearly represent a similar concept, and would benefit from following the same convention. For example, if git-svn tracks Subversion branch "foo" at refs/remotes/foo, and you create a local branch refs/heads/foo to add some commits to be pushed back to Subversion (using "git svn dcommit), then it is clearly unhelpful of Git to throw warning: refname 'foo' is ambiguous. every time you checkout, rebase, or otherwise interact with the branch. The existing workaround for this is to supply the --prefix=quux/ to git svn init/clone, so that git-svn's tracking branches end up in refs/remotes/quux/* instead of refs/remotes/*. However, encouraging users to specify --prefix to work around a design flaw in git-svn is suboptimal, and not a long term solution to the problem. Instead, git-svn should default to use a non-empty prefix that saves unsuspecting users from the inconveniences described above. This patch will only affect newly created git-svn setups, as the --prefix option only applies to git svn init (and git svn clone). Existing git-svn setups will continue with their existing (lack of) prefix. Also, if anyone somehow prefers git-svn's old layout, they can recreate that by explicitly passing an empty prefix (--prefix "") on the git svn init/clone command line. The patch changes the default value for --prefix from "" to "origin/", updates the git-svn manual page, and fixes the fallout in the git-svn testcases. (Note that this patch might be easier to review using the --word-diff and --word-diff-regex=. diff options.)

2013-10-12git-svn: Warn about changing default for --prefix in Git v2.0Libravatar Johan Herland1-0/+67
In Git v2.0, we will change the default --prefix for init/clone from none/empty to "origin/" (which causes SVN-tracking branches to be placed at refs/remotes/origin/* instead of refs/remotes/*). This patch warns users about the upcoming change, both in the git-svn manual page, and on stderr when running init/clone in the "multi-mode" without providing a --prefix.

2009-05-21git-svn testsuite: use standard configuration for Subversion toolsLibravatar Eygene Ryabinkin1-1/+1
I have tweaked configuration in my ~/.subversion directory, namely I am running auto-properties and automatically adding '$Id$' expansion to every file. This choke the last test named 'proplist' from t9101-git-svn-props.sh, because one more property, svn:keywords is automatically added. I had just wrapped svn invocation with the svn_cmd that specifies empty directory via --config-dir argument. Since the latter is the global option, it should be recognized by all svn subcommands, so no regressions will be introduced. Now svn_cmd is used everywhere, not just in the failed test module: this should guard us from the future clashes with user-defined configuration tweaks.

2008-05-05Fix tests breaking when checkout path contains shell metacharactersLibravatar Bryan Donlan1-15/+15
This fixes the remainder of the issues where the test script itself is at fault for failing when the git checkout path contains whitespace or other shell metacharacters. The majority of git svn tests used the idiom test_expect_success "title" "test script using $svnrepo" These were changed to have the test script in single-quotes: test_expect_success "title" 'test script using "$svnrepo"' which unfortunately makes the patch appear larger than it really is. One consequence of this change is that in the verbose test output the value of $svnrepo (and in some cases other variables, too) is no longer expanded, i.e. previously we saw * expecting success: test script using /path/to/git/t/trash/svnrepo but now it is: * expecting success: test script using "$svnrepo" Signed-off-by: Bryan Donlan <bdonlan@fushizen.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
