I try to backup a MySQLDump and put it into git so we have easy access to diffs and can have a real history. The problem I have is that it works perfectly, when running manually, but when running in the script git refuses to use the file: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- srwali01:/home/server/backup/db# ~/db-dump.sh /home/server/backup/db//2005-11-22/13:26 does not exist or is not a regular file cg-add: warning: not all files could be added cg-commit: Nothing to commit ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (The script can be found at [0].) When I do that on the command line, this happens: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- srwali01:/home/server/backup/db# cg-add /home/server/backup/db//2005-11-22/13:26 Adding file /home/server/backup/db//2005-11-22/13:26 Ignoring path /home/server/backup/db//2005-11-22/13:26 srwali01:/home/server/backup/db# cg-commit -m "Backup vom 2005-11-22 um 13:26" cg-commit: Nothing to commit ---------------------------------------------------------------------- When I add it with a relative path it works: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Adding file 2005-11-22/13:26 srwali01:/home/server/backup/db# cg-commit -m "Backup vom 2005-11-22 um 13:26" A 2005-11-22/13:26 Committed as 3086174c1c84ce598137062867c07a4b7c619c39. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- When I change it in the script to be relativeo [( cd "$DDIR"; cg-add "$SUBDIR/$FILENAME"; cg-commit -m "Backup vom $SUBDIR um $FILENAME") ] than the same happens: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- srwali01:~# ./db-dump.sh 2005-11-22/13:31 does not exist or is not a regular file cg-add: warning: not all files could be added cg-commit: Nothing to commit ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Any hint why it behaves differently in script and command line? Btw, does someone know, why mysqldump does just one insert and a very very long line and not many inserts with only one value? The bevahiour of it seems to have changed, as mysqldump did that in earlier releases [sorry bit offtopic].

Did it work? That would have to be GIT's thing, though. Also, GIT does not seem to like absolute paths being passed to git-update-index. -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis Stuff: http://pasky.or.cz/ VI has two modes: the one in which it beeps and the one in which it doesn't. ```
