Description Jeremy Olexa (darkside) (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2008-04-16 22:51:15 UTC
Moved in gentoo-x86, needs to be fixed in prefix.

I think git.eclass needs to be sync'd as well. I can't verify via the trac page because the eclass directs to git.overlays.gentoo.org!! Check it out: http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/alt/browser/trunk/prefix-overlay/eclass/git.eclass

ahh, found another problem. dev-util/git links to git.overlays.g.o as well. svn is confused and doesn't know how to update it!

Comment 2 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2008-04-17 08:08:29 UTC
well:
a) I hate package moves
b) I recall having problems with git recently.  SVN would do very strange, and given my endless love for SVN I just ended up shouting and eventually doing an rm -Rf on the entire dev-util directory to check it out again.  After that the git dir was back again, and it appeared to be fine.  That said; SVN is a black box mystery sometimes, I really hate it for being like that, just rm -Rf your dir too, and update it again to see if that helps.

dev-util/git != app-misc/git
Comment 4 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2008-04-17 08:24:03 UTC
then this bug looks like it is invalid to me?
Comment 5 Jeremy Olexa (darkside) (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2008-04-17 12:25:25 UTC
Ah, yes. I see now. Sorry for the noise. However the problem from comment #1 remains even after I rm'd it. I'll try to rm the whole dir next.

Closing bug as INVALID, will talk via IRC to troubleshoot if I can't get it working as it is obviously not a bug
Comment 6 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2008-04-17 12:50:53 UTC
my svn was really fscked up on that one, so you really need to rm -Rf a lot. :(
