svnsync: Error while replaying commit

I see a lot of reports of this error, but little in the way of
clear information as to what it might mean, or how to fix it:

$ svnsync sync file://`pwd`/dest
Committed revision 1.
Copied properties for revision 1.
Transmitting file data .....................
[...]
Committed revision 79.
Copied properties for revision 79.
Transmitting file data .......................
Committed revision 80.
Copied properties for revision 80.
svnsync: Error while replaying commit

Huh?

If I look at the source server log, revs 81 & 82 are "missing"
in the trunk. I imagine they are/were in a branch, which AFAIK
is no longer available. Is there any way to get around this?
Assuming that's the problem, of course.

Yes, my initial guess was wrong and so you can discard the rest of my
posting that was based on this assumption.

As far as Subversion itself is concerned, it doesn't even know about
things like branches, they are just copies, so you shouldn't have to do
anything special.


I have no more guesses left what could cause this, good luck!

See my other email, I got the svn log command wrong, and the branch
*is* still available, just can't be modified any more. The question
is, why svnsync gets its knickers into a twist about that. The
revisions *are* available (and can be checked out, I checked). The
"howto" (link in other email) makes no mention of having to do
anything special to handle repos with branches in a special way.

Just to cut the discussion short here: You used "svn log $REPO_URL"
directly on the root of the repository, not some directory underneath.
Right?

Do you know more about this branch and how it was removed? Just "svn
delete"ing a branch doesn't cause revisions to vanish. I guess the
repository was modified using the dumpfilter to remove that branch,
causing a non-contiguous range of revisions. svnsync then chokes on
this, because it expects the revisions to be contiguous.

This would explain the reasons, but doesn't help you getting the
repository synced. What I would do is this:
1. Try to reproduce this problem in isolation to make sure it is a
problem with dumpfiltered revisions.
2. Try to create empty revisions in the target repository or modify the
last-synced-revision (I believe that svnsync stores such a property
somewhere). The goal is to keep svnsync from trying to sync that
revision from the upstream repository.
3. File an according enhancement request on svnsync.

That is really baffling me. But mayber that's because you have different 
version.

I just thought something else. svnsync stops when trying to create the 
branch (rev 81). So maybe the error is something not related to the 
repository, like permission (I don't think so though) or some hooks. 
Sorry, I am a bit to a dead end here.

Okay :)

Oh, simply because I removed that (destination) repo once it was clear
it was not correct. I then recreated it this morning in order to perform
one or other operation you or someone else asked me to do.

If I do it now (having tried to sync again), I get:

as you expected.

Well, I would have used svn pl -r0 <repo> to get the list of props (I 
didn't remember its name) and then svn pg svn:sync-from-url -r0 <repo> 
but I guess it's the same thing.

It looks like you're syncing the whole repo. I was just checking :-)

Howeve, why is svn:sync-last-merged-rev 0? It should be, well, the last 
merged revision, 79 I think. I guess svn pg svn:sync-last-merged-rev 
shows 0 as well?

What version of SVN are you using? I've got 1.6.12 and if I am in a 
directory where no changes were made for a revision then svn log doesn't 
show anything, e.g.

svn log -v -r17727
------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the list of files changed in revision 80 that you posted earlier, are 
there any files at all that are actually in branches/working?

No problem. I don't know if this is exactly what you want, but:
$ cat ./db/revprops/0/0
K 8
svn:date
V 27
2011-03-01T16:14:38.678110Z
K 17
svn:sync-from-url
V 33
svn://devel.<domain>/<repo>
K 18
svn:sync-from-uuid
V 36
7c76b8fe-c8ee-45e6-8ede-b17e10a7e991
K 24
svn:sync-last-merged-rev
V 1
0
END

So you mean the "sync-from-url" property? That looks correct, to me (with
my admittedly limited knowledge)

Nope, that's the command. I mean, it *is* the log, so... shouldn't it?
The commands for trunk and branch produce the same output, anyway:
[12:39:07] jg@ggajg ~/.tmp
$ svn log -v -r80 svn://devel.<domain>/<repo>/trunk > trunk ; svn log -v -r80 svn://devel.<domain>/<repo>/branches/working > branch

Sorry, I wasn't very clear. The one your syncing into, so the 
destination repo.

Why is it showing files in trunk when you're log command is for 
branches/working ? Or have you just pasted the wrong command?

Well, at least we know that the revisions are not missing.

Can you show us the source repository path for you synced repo? It 
should be in one of the properties stored in revision 0 in the synced 
repo, if I remember well.

Also, can you run svn log -v on revision 80, 81 and 82?

Did you run svn log on the working copy? I ask because it's really 
strange that two revisions are missing so maybe they have been made on a 
different part of the repository. I would suggest running svn info to 
get the correct repository URL and then run svn log against that URL.

There are no hooks as far as I know. (I'm not an admin, and the admin is not very forthcoming on.. well, anything, really).

Do you have a precommit hook now that was not there when revs 81-82
were committed?
Svn log will show the revisions whereever in the repository they were
made. Are they missing for real?

Re: svnsync: Error while replaying commit

Posted by Daniel Shahaf <d....@daniel.shahaf.name>.
Haven't read the whole thread, but the problem here has to do with r81.
r80 moved fine and I expect `svnlook youngest dest` = 80.

If the source repos has authz set up or has undergone history surgeries
that's likely related.

You could try running:
% svnserve --log-file=foo.log -dr.
% svnsync sync svn://localhost
to get a "destination server" log.
