Hi list!

Something fails, when updated the FreeBSD's svn repo to git. Since
yesterday I get this warning:
$ git svn rebase

the git config is:

Is this a user error (my), or it's an mismerge or repo fail git / or
freebsd's svn?

SVN never has problems "It's powered by FreeBSD ;)"

Take a look at your git config. The problem lies there and is very
visible. After you are done fixing that re-read the whole email that you
posted.

I would say it is elementary my dear Watson but I really do not feel like
calling you dear and I certainly do not want to take Roberts last name in
vain.

With those remarks I will leave it up to your honed skills to figure out.

You know really... I did not see anything that you have replied with to
be constructive criticism "At all".

And personally if you really want to reply with remarks of "Would you
mind sharing your findings Sherlock Holmes" You can then keep your
comments to your self as I do not find them useful and my name is not
Sherlock Holmes.

Secondly I would expect a much more intelligent remark to come from
someone with your background but I guess that comes with age.

So my suggestion in constructiveness to you would be to think harder
before you critique a post of the very same nature as the one you posted.

As regards to the OP the email was meant as a confirmation to the author
that the problem did lye on his end and that by paying closer attention
to "the paths" that were displayed in the OP would have revealed the
problem.

the problem is at a standstill above always, only I did not see a

otherwise i tested more things, but the situation did not change.

the master local git repo don't touched, only synced with freebsd's
svn repo, and the local commit are in second git tree commited, say it
as: ~/src/, and the master is /usr/data/source/git/7-STABLE - this is
a simple _git svn rebase_ based git tree.

the command with synced the tree is:

alias src_update '(cd /usr/data/source/git/7-STABLE.git; git svn
rebase; cd ~/src; git pull) |& less'

so, the all process show as this:
1) cd /usr/data/source/git/7-STABLE.git # can't comment..
2) git svn rebase # this fetched the source from
svn://svn.freebsd.org/base/stable/7, and then updated the git repo
3) cd ~/src # can't comment..
4) git pull # this fetched from the GIT repo the source, this runned
without error

So, the error is somewhere in process 2).

And the errors in log is recently this files:

when you see the PATHs, then its showed as:

7-STABLE_base_path+"do something else"

and at the end, i synced with this process my source code over one
year, but it showed since ~1 week, as the first mail wroted..

OK. I will try to say something "constructive".

You seem to think that "clever", useless comments make you look good. As
someone who has been working with FreeBSD and the FreeBSD community for
a long time, all you really do is make yourself look juvenile, arrogant,
and rude. You are a prime example of why many people approaching the
FreeBSD community for help claim that we are an arrogant and rude bunch.

The information content of your messages approaches zero. Maybe the
problem is trivial and obvious to you. Maybe it would be to Ed, if he
could spot it. Now, if you have never missed an obvious bug until you
asked someone why the code would not work, you are either truly
exceptional (along with the adjectives listed above) or have written
little or no code of your own.

Please either provide reasonable assistance when responding to questions
or don't reply at all. No one likes a smart ass,

<plonk>

hmmm, it's look like this:
http://lists-archives.org/git/707921-git-svn-memoize-conversion-of-svn-merge-ticket-info-to-git-commit-ranges.html

git releated change is the source of the warnings..

and the git is updated at Dec 28 20:39
ll /usr/local/bin/git
-rwxr-xr-x 95 root wheel 1066766 Dec 28 20:39 /usr/local/bin/git

so i have this workaround:

--8<--
alias src_update '(cd /usr/data/source/git/7-STABLE.git; '\
'git svn rebase' \
'| grep -E -v "^Couldn.t find revmap for
svn://svn\.freebsd\.org/base/stable/7";' \
'cd ~/src;' \
'git pull)' \
'|& less'
--8<--

and sorry for noise..

ps.:

That's great and all but have you read the reply that I had originally
made to the OP. It does not "seem" like it from your comments.

Reasonable assistance I think that was pretty reasonable, I do not
recall anyone paying something for anything I have said and it seemed to
me that he was asking for more of a confirmation.

> <plonk>

I do not like smart asses either, which in turn is why I am still
replying to comments about the followup and why I don't know that I feel
I should have to defend my self on this matter.

For one:
The followup that I had made as I already stated was confirming the
problem was on his end and in no way that I see was offending, maybe I
could have choose different words but that does not relieve the response
I had received after from Ed.

For two:
If you want to call someone something call them by the respective name
or email address that they have spoken with. I do not ever recall naming
Ed anything other than his own name nor anyone else. As spoken do on to
others as you would do onto your self. I repeat my name is not Sherlock
Holmes.

Thirdly:
Constructive ? there was nothing non-constructive about the followup I
had made. I have missed plenty of things in the past and would never
claim otherwise and the information that I offered certainly was not
complete but was meant not to be, and not in a critiquing manner.

No, the OP has it figured out, so it's just you and a a few others who
may have missed the last message in the thread.

The problem was a change in the importation of svn into git with the
latest update to git on 12/28. It required a modification of the git
configuration...otherwise the import failed. I am not git-aware, so I
suggest reading the final message from Oliver sent on 1/1 at 18:24 -8.

He points out the thread on the git list that explained the work-around:
