[PATCH 08/12] vcs-svn: set up channel to read fast-import cat-blob response

From
Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com>
Date
Mar 6, 2011, 23:11 UTC
Message-ID
<20110306231130.GJ24327@elie>
In-Reply-To
<20110306225419.GA24327@elie>
From: David Barr <david.barr@cordelta.com>
Date: Sat, 5 Mar 2011 13:30:23 +1100

Set up some plumbing: teach the svndump lib to pass a file descriptor number to the fast_export lib, representing where cat-blob/ls responses can be read from, and add a get_response_line helper function to the fast_export lib to read a line from that file.

Unfortunately this means that svn-fe needs file descriptor 3 to be redirected from somewhere (preferrably the cat-blob stream of a fast-import backend); otherwise it will fail:

	$ svndump <path> | svn-fe
	fatal: cannot read from file descriptor 3: Bad file descriptor

For the moment, "svn-fe 3</dev/null" works as a workaround but it will not work for very long. A fast-import backend that can retrieve old commits is needed in order to be able to fulfill svn "Node-copyfrom-rev" requests that refer to revs from a previous run.
