"Cannot copy revprops for a revision that has not been synchronized yet."

[David Aldrich <Da...@EU.NEC.COM>]

Hi

We maintain a mirrored offsite svn repository for backup purposes.  The svnsync process is run every 15 mins by a cron job.

We have recently installed a post-revprop-change hook to allow users to change a revision's log message.  The hook copies the rev prop change to the mirror:

svnsync copy-revprops

However, this gives a problem when the revision property change is made before the cron job has copied the revision to the mirror. In that case, the hook fails with the error:

"Cannot copy revprops for a revision that has not been synchronized yet."

I guess this is an issue that others have faced. Please can someone suggest a solution?

Best regards

David

Just ignore that particular error?  When the cron eventually runs, it
will see the new log message.
