Hi there, in the IRC channel today, someone asked me to report this behavior to you because they suspect a bug in show-ignore.

Ok, so here's the output of git svn info:
Path: .
URL: https://www.iam.unibe.ch/scg/svn_repos
Repository Root: https://www.iam.unibe.ch/scg/svn_repos
Repository UUID: 54883e8d-cf1d-0410-83d6-f114b9419f37
Revision: 29639
Node Kind: directory
Schedule: normal
Last Changed Author: oscar
Last Changed Rev: 29639
Last Changed Date: 2009-11-12 11:22:35 +0100 (Do, 12 Nov 2009)

I can do git svn rebase, git svn fetch, and those things work. Dcommit, works, too. But git svn show-ignore >> .gitignore does not work.

This is the dialog with the system:
Nikos-Mbp-3:svn_repos niko$ git svn show-ignore >> .gitignore

That's all the info I have, I'm afraid. I'm sure that the password is correct, as it works from XCode.

Thanks in advance, cheers,
Niko

Hi Niko, this is really strange, especially when dcommit works.

Which version of git is this? Are you in contact with the SVN server administrator? Maybe they can look at server logs for you.

Also, can you try the following command with plain svn?
  svn pg -R svn:ignore https://www.iam.unibe.ch/scg/svn_repos

Thanks. Also, if anybody else there can help look into this it would be greatly appreciated, my authentication knowledge is still a bit on the weak side.

Re: git svn show-ignore bug?

Hi,

so I spoke to the SVN admin and he says that possibly the repo has been corrupted a while ago. The command you asked me to run fails, it can't authenticate. That command was svn pg -R svn:ignore https://www.iam.unibe.ch/scg/svn_repos.

Some old version in the repo may be corrupt and I didn't get the details.
So, well, I guess it's nothing you can do :)
