Re: Cannot get info for a file that was inside of file-replaced directory

[Иван Селин]

Hi, Eric!

 

I think svn log -v is correct as it shows that /dir in commit 2 was replaced, i.e. removed and added:

  $ svn log -v file://$repo/dir

------------------------------------------------------------------------

r2 | ivanselin | 2019-11-19 08:34:37 +0300 (Tue, 19 Nov 2019) | 1 line

Changed paths:

   R /dir

   A /file-moved (from /dir/file:1)

 

Replace dir with file

------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

But yeah, some commands do work correctly, it's weird.

 

Regards,

Ivan.

Interesting.

 

It appears that svn ls of "dir@1" works fine. As does svn cat of "dir/file@1". svn proplist of "dir/file@1" appears to work as well.

 

svn log -v appears to be incomplete, as it shows "dir" removed, but not also added in the revision.

 

svn info fails, as you note.

 

Looks like a bug to me.

 

Eric.

Hi!

 

I think I've found a bug in subversion client. Setup is as follows:

1. Create directory with a file in it — commit 1

2. Replace directory with other file — commit 2

3. Call "svn info dir/file@1" — it should give information about dir/file at revision 1, but it fails saying that "dir" is a file at latest revision:

 

svn: E160016: Failure opening '/dir' in revision 2

svn: E160016: '/dir' is not a directory in filesystem '0bc899d5-c233-4fed-98a3-8705ddfc96c4'

But directory can be listed, it shows the file, and file can be listed too:

  $ svn info file:///tmp/subversion-info-on-replaced-file/repo/dir@1

Path: dir

URL: file:///tmp/subversion-info-on-replaced-file/repo/dir

Relative URL: ^/dir

Repository Root: file:///tmp/subversion-info-on-replaced-file/repo

Repository UUID: 0bc899d5-c233-4fed-98a3-8705ddfc96c4

Revision: 1

Node Kind: directory

Last Changed Author: ivanselin

Last Changed Rev: 1

Last Changed Date: 2019-11-18 11:38:16 +0300 (Пн, 18 ноя 2019)

 

  $ svn list file:///tmp/subversion-info-on-replaced-file/repo/dir@1

file

  $ svn list file:///tmp/subversion-info-on-replaced-file/repo/dir/file@1

file

 

So, only "info" does not work. It seems that it's performing directory check against HEAD instead of provided peg revision. Adding --revision key changes nothing. This is trunk svn (1.14.0-dev, r1869957), svn 1.9.7 does not have this bug, it correctly shows info.

 

Sample reproduction script attached.

Ivan.
