Hi guys! I've recently been evaluating DVCS's for work. (Actually, who am I kidding - I love working w/ DVCS and want to convince my bosses to move forward ;) Since we're a Perforce & Windows shop, git-p4 and msysgit are mandatory. However, I've run into a strange bug. Running git-p4 submit, I always get the message '... - file(s) not in client view'. Yes, I've checked - the files are in the client view, the view is set up properly, talking to the correct server. This only occurs if I'm in any of the directories of the git repository. If I switch to the directories where the P4 data is synced to and use --git-origin, the submit works just fine. After a bit of digging on the ML, I found http://marc.info/?l=git&m=120437559322494&w=3 and the thread related to it. And yes, indeed, changing all p4 calls like this: system("p4 sync ...") --> system("p4 sync %s..." % self.clientPath) makes the problem go away. I've spent some time debugging the issue, and as far as I can tell, the working dir is set correctly during system(), the p4 environment is set correctly - and yet p4 complains. As far as I know, I've grabbed the latest git & git-p4 from repo.or.cz. Is this a known problem? Should I clean up & submit the patch, or has anybody investigated a bit more why this is failing? (I don't like the patch because I don't understand *why* p4 fails to behave properly) Help appreciated, - Robert -- 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
