svn copy WC URL fails silently
Hi
I am not subscribed to the mailing list. Please CC me on any replies to this mail.
I am having trouble with the svn copy command. I am running RedHat Enterprise Linux Workstation release 6.3 and svn version 1.6.1 (r934486).
I use the svn copy to create a tag based on a working copy, including any changes in externals.
(I know that there should not be any changes in the externals, but it is very important for me that the tag is an accurate copy of the working copy)
I create a list of the externals, and if they are not locked to a specific revision, I use svn copy to create a tag of the external.
This works fine for directory externals, but for file externals it fails silently.
Attempting the same command for a file which is not an external works fine.
Is this a known bug or feature in Subversion?
More details:
In my Sandbox I have got a number of files in a directory. One of these, SKernConstants_pck.vhd, is an external file.
The other files are not externals.

I have done some tests using strace and diffed these two. The attached images show that
Stracediff1: Sadm run prints a message before exiting
Stracediff2: SKernConstants run stops after the first two lstats.

Thanks for the help. Look like I need to see if it is possible to install svn version 1.8

Sorry about the blank mesage! So in general, perhaps file externals are simply not working up to your requirements before Subversoin 1.8?

svnadmin create repo --compatible-version 1.6
svn import -mm repo/format file://`pwd`/repo/f
svnmucc -mm propset svn:externals '^/f x' file://`pwd`/repo
svn co file://`pwd`/repo wc
echo xx > wc/x
svn cp -mm wc/x ^/copy
Using 1.6 the copy does nothing and fails to create a revision. Using
1.7 the copy causes the client to abort with an assert. Using 1.8 the
copy creates a new revision.

Do you have a test environment you'd be willing to test 1.7 or 1.8 on? 1.6.11 is no longer supported. I've been trying to get 1.7 or 1.8 major releases into Repoforge for a while, but that repo seems to be moribund.
