[jira] Created: (SCM-368) Windows path length limitations can be
overcome by feeding an absolute path to SVN
Windows path length limitations can be overcome by feeding an absolute path to SVN
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: SCM-368
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SCM-368
Project: Maven SCM
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: maven-scm-api
Affects Versions: 1.0
Environment: Any Windows machine
Reporter: Kurt Tometich
Priority: Minor
When calling Subversion with relative paths there is a limit of 255 characters to the path length. If you call Subversion with an absolute path that no longer applies and you now have access to 32K chars. I have tried this myself and it does work. Try feeding SVN a path that is relative and is over 255 chars. It will not be able to complete the transaction. Now, try to the same path again only as an absolute path and it will successfully complete the transaction. Here is a link to the forum where I found this information: http://en-us.www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/2.0.0.4/firstrun/.

oh, I didn't know this option.
I wouldn't want to run an external program to find it, so I think i'll add a new property in the conf file to change it

Dominique Jean-Prost commented on SCM-368:
------------------------------------------
Well, I've just tested as the plugin has been released, and I still meet the problem. Here what I do :
1. cd c:\a\very\long\paht\under\windows\xp\or\windows\2000
2. mvn scm:checkout -DconnectionUrl=scm:svn:http://myUrlHere
--> It says
[INFO] Executing: cmd.exe /X /C "svn --non-interactive checkout http://myUrlHere checkout"
[INFO] Working directory: c:\a\very\long\paht\under\windows\xp\or\windows\2000
[ERROR] Provider message:
[ERROR] The svn command failed.
[ERROR] Command output:
[ERROR] svn: Your .svn/tmp directory may be missing or corrupt; run 'svn cleanup' and try again
svn: Can't open file 'checkout\blabla....svn-base': Le chemin d'accès spécifié est introuvable.
3. If I execute svn --non-interactive checkout http://myUrlHere c:\a\very\long\paht\under\windows\xp\or\windows\2000\checkout : it works.
Can you look at this please ?
PS : my test was done by using the release plugin. It failed for the same reason, then I tested directly the scm plugin.

is it work with svn --non-interactive update /cygdrive/c/ci/wd/41 ?
If it is ok, I'll can add a property to convert windows path to cygwin path.

Hi,
The fix in rev [656441|http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=656441] breaks continuum on cygwin.
Relevant part of the log :
{code}
2008-05-21 00:28:26,265 [pool-1-thread-1] INFO org.apache.continuum.scm.manager
.Slf4jScmLogger - Executing: cmd.exe /X /C "svn --non-interactive update C:\ci\wd\41"

.Slf4jScmLogger - Working directory: C:\ci\wd\41
2008-05-21 00:28:26,484 [pool-1-thread-1] INFO org.apache.continuum.scm.manager
.Slf4jScmLogger - Svn command failed due to some locks in working copy. We try to run a 'svn cleanup'.
{code}
The workaround is too add windows svn first in the cygwin path.

Joerg Schaible commented on SCM-368:
------------------------------------
Note, that the following snippet makes wrong assumptions:
{code}
if ( settings.isUseCygwinPath() )
{
workingDir = "/cygdrive/" + workingDir;
workingDir = StringUtils.replace( workingDir, ":", "" );
workingDir = StringUtils.replace( workingDir, "\\", "/" );
}
{code}
"/cygdrive" may not exist at all. The cygdrive prefix can be set to anything. See for example on my system:
{noformat}
$ mount --show-cygdrive-prefix
Prefix Type Flags
/mnt system binmode
{noformat}
Cygwin users set this also often to "/dev" or even "/" (although not recommended). The cygdrive prefix is currently stored in Windows registry only, so you will have to retrieve it calling an external utility.

Well I'm meeting this problem too.
Let me fix the link provided by Kurt. The correct link is http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html#long-paths.
I think this problem is quite annoying and should be quite easy to fix. Can it be added to the must-fix ?

-------------------------------------
Just an observation, I found cases when cygwin svn fails with absolute cygwin paths, if those paths are specified in a --targets file. More details about these cases here: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/maven-users/200907.mbox/%3C4A4CD0FB.7070909@novaordis.com%3E
I'd suggest making using relative paths configurable from pom.

> When calling Subversion with relative paths there is a limit of 255 characters to the path length. If you call Subversion with an absolute path that no longer applies and you now have access to 32K chars. I have tried this myself and it does work. Try feeding SVN a path that is relative and is over 255 chars. It will not be able to complete the transaction. Now, try to the same path again only as an absolute path and it will successfully complete the transaction. Here is a link to the forum where I found this information: http://en-us.www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/2.0.0.4/firstrun/.

------------------------------------------
Well, I think I use it :

I think the command line shoud be svn --non-interactive checkout http://myUrl/ ${checkoutDirectory} where checkoutDirectory is absolute instead of svn --non-interactive checkout http://myUrl/ checkout where checkout is relative.
What do you think ?

--------------------------------------
Are you sure you use maven-scm-plugin 1.1? Run the command with '-X' option to look at the version used.
