From: Troy Telford Date: Wed, 15 Nov 2006 21:05:37 GMT Subject: git-svn bug? Message-ID: I've got a repository I've converted over to git from svn. (using git-svn. since there's only been one branch, I figured I could skip git-svnimport). For quite a while, all I did was fetch/rebase from the svn repository to my git repository; all of my own work was committed to the git repository; none of the changes were commited to the svn repository. Then came the time to commit changes from my git repository to the svn repository. Being somewhat cautious, I created an empty 'dummy' svn repository and familiarize myself with using git-svn to commit from git -> svn. I ran: git-svn fetch git-svn rebase remotes/git-svn (already updated) git-svn dcommit (to push my changes to the svn repository) Everything seemed to work fine with the dummy repository. Encouraged, I did the same with the 'real' repository, and received the following error: (Using git 1.4.3.5, svn 1.4.0 on a Gentoo box) fatal: Not a valid object name 92e2e0c50bbbacb0a3426b2c0f8b3e043eb4830a~1 32768 at /usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8/Memoize.pm line 269 (using git 1.4.4, svn 1.3.0 on a SLES 9 SP3 box) fatal: Not a valid object name 92e2e0c50bbbacb0a3426b2c0f8b3e043eb4830a~1 32768 at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.3/Memoize.pm line 269 (using git 1.4.4, svn 1.3.1 on a SLES 10 box) fatal: Not a valid object name 92e2e0c50bbbacb0a3426b2c0f8b3e043eb4830a~1 32768 at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/Memoize.pm line 269 I had NFS mounted the git repository, so the SLES 9 was local the other two were NFS. In any event, the error seems to be essentially identical on every platform I've tried. Additionally, I had created three branches for the purpose of pushing my changes to svn: master (used for my own development) svn (created using git checkout -b svn remotes/git-svn -- basically only what is in svn) merge (git checkout -b merge svn; git rebase master) `git diff-tree merge master | wc -l` returns 0 (which I assume means no changes) `git diff-tree svn merge | wc -l` returns 44 (again, I assume this means 44 changes) I couldn't find an object named "92e2e0c50bbbacb0a3426b2c0f8b3e043eb4830a~1" in .git/ Aside from my cluelessness, is there anything else wrong? --
