Hi,
My internal subversion repository has a pre-commit script that requires the svn:mime-type and svn:eol-style properties to be set on any new file before it can be added to the repository. If these properties aren't set, the commit fails. When using git-svn dcommit to commit a patch that adds a new file, the dcommit also fails with the error below. I have added auto-props rules in my ~/.subversion/ config file to automatically set these properties based on file extension, so an svn commit doesn't require explicitly setting them. I tried adding the --config-dir=~/.subversion option to the dcommit command, but it didn't seem to make a difference.
Is there any way to set these properties or consult subversion auto- props so that git-svn knows how to set them during the dcommit? Would it be difficult to add this capability if it doesn't already exist?
Example command and subsequent error:
# git-svn dcommit --verbose --config-dir=~/.subversion
Committing to https://svn/repo/foo ...
A bar.c
A repository hook failed: MERGE request failed on '/repo/foo': 'pre-
commit' hook failed with error output:
/svnrepo/hooks/check-mime-type.pl:foo/bar.c : svn:mime-type is not set
Every added file must have the svn:mime-type property set. In
addition text files must have the svn:eol-style property set. For binary files try running
svn propset svn:mime-type application/octet-stream path/of/file For text files try
svn propset svn:mime-type text/plain path/of/file
svn propset svn:eol-style native path/of/file You may want to consider uncommenting the auto-props section
in your ~/.subversion/config file. Read the Subversion book
(http://svnbook.red-bean.com/), Chapter 7, Properties section,
Automatic Property Setting subsection for more help.
