Package: subversion Version: 1.5.1dfsg1-4 Severity: normal Forwarding an Ubuntu bug to the upstream Debian subversion maintainers: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/subversion/+bug/651850
When editing files in a remote SVN work directory, you cannot perform a commit from within Emacs, because one of the temporary files used in the commit is apparently created locally, not on the remote host where the SVN commit command is run. Steps to repro: 1. Edit a file in a remote SVN work directory, e.g. C-x C-f /m...@remote:/tmp/testcheckout/file.txt 2. Make some local changes 3. Run M-x svn-status 4. Mark file.txt to be committed with *; press c to actually commit. Write a short log message in the *svn-log-edit* buffer 5. Attempt to commit with C-c C-c Actual results: The following message is displayed in the minibuffer: svn failed: Can't open file '/tmp/svn.arg.2331QTe': No such file or directory^M Expected results: Committed revision 12345 For debugging, (setq debug-on-error t) doesn't help in this situation, because the SVN error is not an Emacs error; Emacs simply displays the error message from the back end. The function which removes temporary files used by psvn.el is called svn-status-remove-temp-file-maybe; I guess it might be useful to instrument, replace, or advice this function to see what is being removed when. (From comment #2 in the Launchpad bug report, slightly revised): The newest upstream[1] upstream[2] upstream[3] version at http://www.xsteve.at/prg/emacs/psvn.el appears to have fixes related to this in the function svn-log-edit-done I can't seem to access the upstream[3] repo at http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/contrib/client-side/emacs -- I get a 403 error. $Id: psvn.el 40299 2009-10-29 19:38:54Z xsteve $ [1] Debian is Ubuntu's upstream for [subversion] [2] [Apache Subversion] is Debian's upstream for [subversion] [3] xsteve.at is [Subversion]'s upstream (From comment #4 in the Launchpad bug report): The latest debian subversion package seems to lack this fix. They mangle the $Id$ tag so it's not clear which upstream version they are shipping. I am the author of the Launchpad bug report, too. /* era */ -- If this were a real .signature, it would suck less.
