SVN 1.5 - Beta 1 - svn changelist - Bug
Hi there,
i have taken a look at the new changelist command.
I have added two files to a changelist via:
svn changelist ISSUE1 file1.c file2.c
Ok. Fine.
Now i have discovered that the Issue name has been change so i want to
change the name of the ChangeList....
svn changelist ISSUE1 --changelist ISSUE2
There i got an error message:
svn: Try 'svn help' for more info
svn: Not enough arguments provided
I have taken a look into the Subversion Book and there the above command
is described to rename changelist's....
I have tried to add an other option (like --depth=infinity) to the
command line, but as expected i got the same result.
Kind regards
Karl Heinz Marbaise

Re: SVN 1.5 - Beta 1 - svn changelist - Bug

Hi to all,
i would like to summarize the things a little bit:
The book says:
svn changelist NewName --cl OldName
can be used to rename a change-list.
But the current state is (SVN 1.5. Beta 1):
svn changelist NewName --cl OldName -R .
has to be used to rename a change-list, cause if you omit the "-R ." you
will get the earlier described error messages.
This can mean two(three) things:
1. Change the code accordingly as the book describes the behavior
2. Change the book accordingly to the current behavior
3. Make it completely different.
(Not a real choice..;-))
Other suggestions or has been made a decision already ?
Kind regards
Karl Heinz Marbaise

Yes, I've fallen behind on tracking the latest evolutions of the changelist
command. I've cc:ed svnbook-dev@red-bean.com as a reminder to fix this
soonishly.

So the result would be to give the people who are working on the book a
hint, that the described behavior(usage) in the book is not the way SVN
currently behaves...

These are intended, yes; all of these (implicit dot by default, 'skip'
messages, and default depth) were discussed when the changes were made.
The changes were committed in r29671 and r29672, following discussions
in the following threads:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.subversion.devel/97003
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.subversion.devel/96711
While I wrote some of this code, I won't object to removing it if the
concensus is to remove it.

Yes this works, but it produces many messages
Skipped '.'
Skipped 'src'
Skipped 'src/main'
Skipped 'src/main/java'
and than it produces the expected messages:
svn: warning: Removing 'changes.xml' from changelist 'ISSUE1'
Path 'changes.xml' is now a member of changelist 'math-bug'
svn: warning: Removing 'pom.xml' from changelist 'ISSUE1'
Path 'pom.xml' is now a member of changelist 'math-bug'
If this is the intended usage (which i'm not concerned of) it is not
correctly described in the SVN 1.5 book...
On the other side i would say if i use a changelist in this relationship
i didn't think about using '-R ..' option to make a rename of the
changelist ....cause changelists only work in relationship with
filenames and not with directories....
Kind regards

'svn changelist' doesn't assume an implicit '.' target when no path
argument is given, unlike most other subcommands. I think you want:
svn cl ISSUE2 --cl ISSUE1 -R .

Yes you're right, cause i had seen it as i had sent the message, but i
tried it the way you described too and got the same error message.
On the other hand if i use them in the way i did i would expect a
different error message like "ChangeList ISSUE2 does not exist" or
a thing like "Empty ChangeList ISSUE2 used"...

You've got them backwards, I think. In your statement above, you're
saying, "please find all the paths in the ISSUE2 changelist and run
'svn changelist ISSUE1' on each of them." What you want instead is:
svn changelist ISSUE2 --changelist ISSUE1
