Segfault when runnning svn merge --reintegrate

2011-06-03 Thread Tom Richards
Howdy,

Anyone have any pointers or workarounds when dealing with a segfault using
the svn merge --reintegrate command?

I'm running this:

 svn merge --reintegrate /path/to/repository


and after a few minutes, I get:

 Segmentation Fault


This happens on both version 1.6.15 (r1038135) and 1.6.16 (r1073529).  This
is running on Mac OS X 10.6.7.



Thanks,

Tom

Faster than than it was for .6.16 or earlier with the Linux client? Good

I want to see the results of the Windows CIFS client. I tried to get a
Windows 7 box in my last such test environment to run NFS
comparisions, but there were. fascinating reasons I was not among
the testers for Windows 7.

Almost any web client can provide interactive command line access to a
Subversion HTTP or HTTPS enabled repository, with the WebDAV features
built in there. I find "lftp" particularly useful for command line
access, and use TortoiseSVN from a Windows client to have the best
user interface in the business for client-side HTTP access. You can
use svnserve, HTTP, HTTPS, svn+ssh, or file based access. (I really,
really don't recommend file based access for clients.)

Whether Cygwin is "Windows" is. an interesting problem in
definitions. It's precisely the sort of problem I mentioned.

No idea why or how the passwords were appearing in CygWin. But CygWin
has "vim" available: Mine has it installed, and it works fine. I'm
really confused which "vim" he expected to use: one installed in
Windows natively, or the one in CygWin?

Sounds like your friend should be asking here himself.
