My repo has two branches, master html Master contains a text file while html contains his conversion in html done via asciidoc. I need to URLs that point to the top of the branches in order to have an easy way for lnkind the documentation to external portals. This link points to HEAD, so top of master: http://repo.or.cz/w/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.git?a=blob_plain;f=LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess;hb=HEAD Browsing the repo I reach the following URL http://repo.or.cz/w/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.git?a=blob;f=LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.html;hb=HEAD that is not accessible. Looks like is not possible to obtain a link to the top of a branch different from master.

Because HEAD is master, not html, and there us no such file in master branch? But all the following links http://repo.or.cz/w/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.git?a=blob;f=LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.html;hb=html http://repo.or.cz/w/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.git?a=blob;f=LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess;hb=master http://repo.or.cz/w/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.git?a=blob;f=LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess;hb=HEAD works You can use http://repo.or.cz/w/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.git/html:/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.html or http://repo.or.cz/w/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.git/html:LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.html (and there is remote possibility that links would work, too) > Looks like is not possible to obtain a link to the top of a branch > different from master. It is possible, but you must specify the branch. P.S.

Fair enoough but then there should be no link in the web interface.

Where did you find this link? On what page? "Browsing the repo" is not enough information to discover where there is a bug. -- Jakub Narebski ``` ## Jakub Narebski, 2006-11-18 18:21 Subject: Re: Possible but in gitweb Message-ID: <200611181921.25873.jnareb@gmail.com> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/200611181921.25873.jnareb%40gmail.com In-Reply-To: <4d8e3fd30611181003o6374f01cy504c0c058f374f1@mail.gmail.com> ``` Paolo Ciarrocchi wrote: > On 11/18/06, Jakub Narebski wrote: >> Paolo Ciarrocchi wrote: >>> On 11/18/06, Jakub Narebski wrote: >>>> Paolo Ciarrocchi wrote: >>>>> >>>>> Browsing the repo I reach the following URL >>>>> http://repo.or.cz/w/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.git?a=blob;f=LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.html;hb=HEAD >>>>> that is not accessible. >>>> >>>> Because HEAD is master, not html, and there us no such file in master branch? >>> >>> Fair enough but then there should be no link in the web interface. >>> That sounds like a bug in the interface. >> >> Where did you find this link?

This could be considered a bug... but it can be not. The link is clearly marked "HEAD", so you are requesting HEAD version of the file... which does not exist. We could check if the file has HEAD version, but that is another call to git commands. What you want is the link to the tip of branch ("head", "top" or "tip")... you are welcome to add that (or replace "HEAD" link with that).

It's not really hard to find. :-) http://repo.or.cz/w/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.git?a=blob;f=LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.html;h=b5e39498997930cd14ecddfe120f62c577ce2e28;hb=html I think the link shouldn't be 'HEAD' but 'latest' and point to the latest version in the currently browser branch. -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis Stuff: http://pasky.or.cz/ The meaning of Stonehenge in Traflamadorian, when viewed from above, is: "Replacement part being rushed with all possible speed." ``` ## Luben Tuikov, 2006-11-18 19:06 Subject: Re: Possible but in gitweb Message-ID: <20061118190652.29135.qmail@web31810.mail.mud.yahoo.com> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/20061118190652.29135.qmail%40web31810.mail.mud.yahoo.com In-Reply-To: <200611181921.25873.jnareb@gmail.com> ``` --- Jakub Narebski wrote: > Paolo Ciarrocchi wrote: > > On 11/18/06, Jakub Narebski wrote: > >> Paolo Ciarrocchi wrote: > >>> On 11/18/06, Jakub Narebski wrote: > >>>> Paolo Ciarrocchi wrote: > >>>>> > >>>>> Browsing the repo I reach the following URL > >>>>> > http://repo.or.cz/w/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.git?a=blob;f=LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.html;hb=HEAD > >>>>> that is not accessible. > >>>> > >>>> Because HEAD is master, not html, and there us no such file in master branch? > >>> > >>> Fair enough but then there should be no link in the web interface. > >>> That sounds like a bug in the interface. > >> > >> Where did you find this link?

I think so too, at lest this is the intention: "head of line", "latest" whatever you want to call it, in the branch context one is at.
