On my ~amd64 machine with hardened gcc 4.6.2 I see the following error when running the git testsuite.

not ok - 2 fetch deleted tags from same revision with checksum error
#	
#		git svn init --stdlayout "$svnrepo" git_project &&
#		cd git_project &&
#		git svn fetch &&
#	
#		git diff --exit-code mybranch:trunk/subdir/file tags/mytag:file &&
#		git diff --exit-code master:subdir/file tags/mytag^:file
#	
# failed 1 among 2 test(s)

In git-1.7.8 there are a lot more test-failures now (to be exact 10 tests fail). The initial problem still persists.

Known problems with SVN 1.7.

see my work in 1.7.9_rc2/9999 on it.

Comment 4 Markus Walter 2012-02-18 12:20:44 UTC

I can confirm, that git-1.7.9.1 merges just fine.

Comment 5 Robin Johnson archtester

It only merges fine because I've disabled the SVN tests that fail for now.
But this IS blocking stable.

Comment 6 Rafał Mużyło 2012-05-09 16:53:46 UTC

Is this bug the reason why ebuilds >=1.7.9 dropped keywords ?
(on that note: 1.7.10.1 was released)

Is this just a matter of fixing the testsuite or does it affect common svn repos too ?

galtgendo:
I can cause data-loss with git-svn if the repo has files or a URL with weird names.

Comment 8 Jeremy Murphy 2012-07-02 06:25:32 UTC

I'm having trouble deciphering which failures were expected and which were unexpected, but 1.7.8.6 fails in the t0001-init section, and I guess it is this one:

not ok - 3 plain through aliased command, outside any git repo
#
#               (
#                       sane_unset GIT_DIR GIT_WORK_TREE &&
#                       HOME=$(pwd)/alias-config &&
#                       export HOME &&
#                       mkdir alias-config &&
#                       echo "[alias] aliasedinit = init" >alias-config/.gitconfig &&
#
#                       GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES=$(pwd) &&
#                       export GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES &&
#
#                       mkdir plain-aliased &&
#                       cd plain-aliased &&
#                       git aliasedinit
#               ) &&
#               check_config plain-aliased/.git false unset
#

I'm using gcc-4.5.3-r2, not hardened.  1.7.3.4-r1 passes all tests.

Comment 9 Robin Johnson archtester

2012-08-23 05:24:43 UTC

please retest with >=1.7.12-r1

Comment 10 Markus Walter 2012-09-01 12:23:16 UTC

All tests passed for git-1.7.12-r2.
