Hello,
I have found the following issues:
Trailng parenthesis:
The "Edit project" action in the "Project Overview" tab seems to have
a trailing parenthesis. Since this seems trivial enough that even I
dare to do it, I made a proposed fix for this and submitted a merge
request to the mainline repository.
Branches with slashes:
Gitorious doesn't seem to like branches with slashes '/' in them.
Inspired by the git project, I have gotten the habbit of prefixing my
own branches with "jf/" to keep the branch namespace clean. After
committing a fix for the above issues into a branch named jf/fix-
project-edit-html, I pushed it to my fonsecas-clone of the gitorious
project. This branch showed up as "jf" in the activities log and as
"fix-project-edit-html" in the branches showed in the sidebar. None of
them seemed to work. I don't know if allowing slashes with break
random stuff like tree URLs.
Attribution of branch deletion:
After cloning the gitorious project I wanted to remove some of the
branches inherited by default from the upstream repository. In other
words I only want the master branch in my clone. So I deleted the new-
ui and project-events branches. These deletions are attributed to
johan. It seems that branch deletion attributed to me is only done for
branches I originally created (like the jf/fix-project-edit-html
branch I decided to rename because Gitorious doesn't handle it
properly). I have no problem with this, but it was unexpected and
maybe not what was intended.
Inconsist clone display:
A final issues I have found is that the project name for cloned repos
seems to be rather inconsistent in the activities log. I see the
following for the Gitorious project: "Gitorious/{repoclone}" and
"gitorious/{repoclone}".
Thanks, again, the new UI is great!
