Bug: Svn crashes when committing *large* amount of changes

["Jonas, Lee" <le...@uk.fid-intl.com>]

Hello,

I'd like to report a bug.

I am using svn 1.0.6 on windows XP professional (SP1) on a 2.4 GHz Pentium 4
CPU system with 1Gb of RAM and 10Gb free disk space with the mod_dav_svn
remote access method to a local installation of Apache 2.0.50 (i.e. also on
Windows XP).

I am following the section in the book about vendor branches.  I can't find
the svn_load_dirs.pl script anywhere in the binary or source distributions
of svn, so I am following the manual steps in turn.  I am attempting to
track the Mozilla code base.  I have a vendor/current directory containing
the source code for Mozilla 1.5
(http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/releases/mozilla1.5/src/mozi
lla-source-1.5.tar.gz
<http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/releases/mozilla1.5/src/mozi
lla-source-1.5.tar.gz> ).  I am attempting another vendor drop to bring it
up to Mozilla 1.7.2
(http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/releases/mozilla1.7.2/src/mo
zilla-source-1.7.2.tar.gz
<http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/releases/mozilla1.7.2/src/mo
zilla-source-1.7.2.tar.gz> ).

I have successfully used 'svn add' and 'svn remove' command line tools to
bring my working copy in line with Mozilla 1.7.2 source.  When I use 'svn
commit', it gets about half way through sending the changes (there are a
very large amount) and then exits at the file
mozilla\other-licenses\libical\zoneinfo\America\Hermosillo.ics with the
following message:

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual
way.

My best guess would be the message you got was generated by Windows when
APR called the abort() call because you didn't have sufficient memory to
do the commit.  Try commiting things in smaller sets and see if it
works.
