Package: git-cvs Version: 1:1.8.4~rc3-1 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer,
I'm on testing and yesterday I did an update that took in the new rc of git and all things related. I have a nightly cron job that logs into the host of my public web-site, creates the needed SSL tunnel and has my web-site cvs update itself from the git-cvsserver back home; it's worked fine for ages. (The remote end is somewhat conservatively sysadmined, so hasn't taken in radical new packages like git; it still has the GNU Interactive Tools). The first night after the git upgrade, I got the following mail from cron: <quote> cvs update: warning: unrecognized response `Use of uninitialized value $wrev in string ne at /usr/bin/git-cvsserver line 1262, <STDIN> line 1447.' from cvs server cvs update: warning: unrecognized response `Use of uninitialized value $wrev in string ne at /usr/bin/git-cvsserver line 1307, <STDIN> line 1447.' from cvs server cvs update: `Vault.png' is no longer in the repository </quote> which sounds like cvs is getting sent - as part of a protocol in which they have no place - perl's warnings about uninitialised variables. (Oh, and Vault.png is indeed not in the repository, nor has it been for ages, if ever - not sure what that's about.) Are the "use strict;" and "use warnings;" lines in git-cvsserver new ? The exact command cron runs is: <quote> ssh -o 'RemoteForward 2402 localhost:2401' chaos 'cd public_html && cvs up' </quote> my /etc/services has <quote> cvspserver 2401/tcp # CVS client/server operations cvspserver 2401/udp </quote> and inetd.conf says <quote> cvspserver stream tcp nowait eddy /usr/bin/git-cvsserver git-cvsserver pserver /home/eddy/.repository/chaos.git </quote> The remote end's CVS/Root files say <quote> :pserver:anonymous@localhost:2402/home/eddy/.repository/chaos.git </quote> to match up with all of that. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.10-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages git-cvs depends on: ii cvsps 2.1-6 ii git 1:1.8.4~rc3-1 ii libdbd-sqlite3-perl 1.40-1 git-cvs recommends no packages.
