Hi, i'm encountering an issue with git-svn running on cygwin (not sure if this is exclusive to cygwin) when migrating data from svn to git. $ git-svn clone file:///F:/test/svn-native-repo/ Initialized empty Git repository in /cygdrive/F/test/git/svn-native-repo/.git/ A sitemap.html A funcs.js A index.html A styles.css r1 = d112a5b470fd4387c7bbb7199d0d7a065754b127 (git-svn) Permission denied: Can't open '/cygdrive/c/DOCUME~1/myself/LOCALS~1/Temp/report.tmp': Permission denied at /usr/bin/git-svn line 2339 the repo used was a dummy subversion repo with 2 revisions: an add, and a modification commit. (dump file here [1]) i suspect this is caused by locks over files. using perl -d: $ perl -d /usr/bin/git-svn clone file:///F:/test/svn-native-repo/ c 3995 c 3995 c 3838 s c 85 SVN::Ra::AUTOLOAD(/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10/i686-cygwin/SVN/Ra.pm:85): 85: my @ret = $func->($self->{session}, @_); immediately after this line the error is generated. a fix would be to issue closes to the processes, as in Git::_close_hash_and_insert_object and Git::_close_cat_blob: 767a768 > $self->_close_hash_and_insert_object(); 856a858 > $self->_close_cat_blob(); (Note: currently this doesn't fix the issue too, cos the methods do not do their job properly (on my side, at least): see http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/91314 ) my environment is: - win xp home sp2 - Cygwin: 1.5.25-15 (latest) - Git: 1.5.6.4-1 (latest) - subversion-perl: 1.4.6-3 (latest) - Perl: 5.10.0-5 (latest) [1] http://thelilaeanbellis.com/shared/svn-native-repo.dump -- 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
