I had somewhat similar problem with git-svn fetch to a repository created with 1.5.3.something failing issuing REPORT. I've tracked down the problem to commit f5530b8833bcaa423cd53d133d3de3fa0173fbf3 to git, reverting it seems to fix git-svn fetch for me. YMMV. I tried to follow where/how URL escaping happens / isn't happening (there are issues like 'if ( eq )' around - mostly because repos_root is escaped) but couldn't get things working. :-/ -- Tommi Komulainen tommi.komulainen@iki.fi ``` ## Eric Wong, 2008-03-08 07:47 Subject: Re: git-svn breaks on gtk+ import Message-ID: <20080308074737.GC1583@hand.yhbt.net> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/20080308074737.GC1583%40hand.yhbt.net In-Reply-To: ``` Tim Janik wrote: > hi Eric. > > with git-svn from git 1.5.4.3, imports of the Gtk+ repository fail: > > git-svn clone -T trunk -b branches -t tags -r 19001 > http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gtk+ > Using existing [svn-remote "svn"] > Using higher level of URL: http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gtk+ => > http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gtk%2B/http: > No such file or directory: PROPFIND request failed on > '/svn/gtk%252B/http%3A': Could not open the requested SVN filesystem at > /usr/bin/git-svn line 1352 > > trying the same for glib works fine: > > git-svn clone -T trunk -b branches -t tags -r 6601 > http://svn.gnome.org/svn/glib > [...] > r6601 = 987f6388b211281d08fce0e63936d9e612ed4d4f (trunk) > Checked out HEAD: > http://svn.gnome.org/svn/glib/trunk r6601 > > looks like the '+' in the the http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gtk+ repository > name isn't handled correctly. It's a known bug which I haven't had time to track down and fix. git-svn handles files and directories with '+' within the base URL you're tracking correctly, but somewhere along the way the base URL you're tracking doesn't work correctly for HTTP. As Harvey suggested, use the svn:// repository for now. -- Eric Wong ``` ## Eric Wong, 2008-04-07 08:20 Subject: Re: git-svn breaks on gtk+ import Message-ID: <20080407082007.GB28853@soma> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/20080407082007.GB28853%40soma In-Reply-To: <20080308074737.GC1583@hand.yhbt.net> ``` Eric Wong wrote: > Tim Janik wrote: > > hi Eric. > > > > with git-svn from git 1.5.4.3, imports of the Gtk+ repository fail: > > > > git-svn clone -T trunk -b branches -t tags -r 19001 > > http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gtk+ > > Using existing [svn-remote "svn"] > > Using higher level of URL: http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gtk+ => > > http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gtk%2B/http: > > No such file or directory: PROPFIND request failed on > > '/svn/gtk%252B/http%3A': Could not open the requested SVN filesystem at > > /usr/bin/git-svn line 1352 > > > > trying the same for glib works fine: > > > > git-svn clone -T trunk -b branches -t tags -r 6601 > > http://svn.gnome.org/svn/glib > > [...] > > r6601 = 987f6388b211281d08fce0e63936d9e612ed4d4f (trunk) > > Checked out HEAD: > > http://svn.gnome.org/svn/glib/trunk r6601 > > > > looks like the '+' in the the http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gtk+ repository > > name isn't handled correctly. > > It's a known bug which I haven't had time to track down and fix. > > git-svn handles files and directories with '+' within the base URL > you're tracking correctly, but somewhere along the way the base URL > you're tracking doesn't work correctly for HTTP. > > As Harvey suggested, use the svn:// repository for now. Hi Tim, the HTTP repository should be fixed with the patch in http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/78961 -- Eric Wong ```
