Package: subversion Version: 1.7.5-1 Severity: grave Justification: causes non-serious data loss
(actually that's silent data corruption in the WC) Subversion 1.7.5 no longer notices a change of revision of some file when a parent directory has been moved. In particular, this yields incorrect keyword expansion. The bug can be reproduced with the following script: ------------------------------------------------------------ #!/bin/sh set -e mkdir my-test-svn cd my-test-svn svnadmin create svn svn co file://`pwd`/svn wc cd wc svn mkdir dir1 svn ci -m 'add dir1' printf '\044Revision\044\nfoo\n' > dir1/file svn add dir1/file svn propset svn:keywords Revision dir1/file svn ci -m 'add dir1/file' echo "File dir1/file:" cat dir1/file svn up svn mv dir1 dir2 echo "File dir2/file:" cat dir2/file svn ci -m 'mv dir1 dir2' echo "File dir2/file:" cat dir2/file svn up echo "File dir2/file:" cat dir2/file svn info dir2/file svn mv dir2/file . echo "File file:" cat file svn ci -m 'mv dir2/file .' echo "File file:" cat file cd ../.. rm -rf my-test-svn ------------------------------------------------------------ If I grep the output with '.Revision:\|Last Changed Rev:', I get: * svn 1.6.17 (r1128011): 2 2 3 3 3 -1 4 * svn 1.7.5 (r1336830): 2 2 2 2 2 2 4 There are 4 differences, but only 3 really matter, because for the last one (-1 vs 2), the commit hasn't been done yet (so that one is in some intermediate state). Thus the important differences (3 vs 2) correspond to: svn ci -m 'mv dir1 dir2' echo "File dir2/file:" cat dir2/file svn up echo "File dir2/file:" cat dir2/file svn info dir2/file The last test of the script shows that the problem doesn't occur when the file itself is moved. Because of that, when checking out a repository with svn 1.7.5, some files seem to go back in time. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages subversion depends on: ii libapr1 1.4.5-1.1 ii libc6 2.13-33 ii libsasl2-2 2.1.25.dfsg1-4+b1 ii libsvn1 1.7.5-1 subversion recommends no packages.
