We now explicitly disconnect before starting new SVN::Ra connections. SVN::Ra objects will automatically be disconnected from the server on DESTROY. SVN servers seem to have problems accepting multiple connections from one client, and the SVN library has trouble being connected to multiple servers at once. This appears to cause opening the second connection to block, and cause git-svn to be unusable after using the do_switch() function. git-svn opens another connection because a workaround is necesary for the buggy reparent function handling on certain versions of svn:// and svn+ssh:// servers. Instead of using the reparent function (analogous to chdir), it will reopen a new connection to a different URL on the SVN server.

Thanks for the bug report. Sorry for the latency these days, I've been quite busy with other things. Although this fixes blocking reads, this does *not* fix the "Malformed network data" issue, which has been around for a while... I'll try to find time to fix the "Malformed network data" bug in a few days time, but it's not fatal (just restart git-svn, this error happens at a point where it's not possible to have a corrupted import). git-svn.perl | 1 + 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/git-svn.perl b/git-svn.perl index 51979f9..b3dffcc 100755 --- a/git-svn.perl +++ b/git-svn.perl @@ -3002,6 +3002,7 @@ sub new { \&Git::SVN::Prompt::username, 2), ]); my $config = SVN::Core::config_get_config($config_dir); + $RA = undef; my $self = SVN::Ra->new(url => $url, auth => $baton, config => $config, pool => SVN::Pool->new, -- Eric Wong - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
