I was looking at the fix for issue 3650, "log -g duplicate output"
http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3650 which is marked fixed and nominated for 1.6. I don't understand whether the 1.7 output is correct or not because I don't know what log -g is expected to produce. Here's my script. It creates a file "A/f" and then modifies it on two branches "X/f" and "Y/f" which both get merged back to "A/f". #!/bin/sh -e svn=svn svnadmin=svnadmin svnmucc=svnmucc url=file:///`pwd`/repo rm -rf repo wc $svnadmin create repo $svn mkdir -mm $url/A $svnmucc -mm -- put - $url/A/f <<EOD Af x Af y Af EOD $svn cp -mm $url/A $url/X $svnmucc -mm -- put - $url/X/f <<EOD Af xxxx Af y Af EOD $svn cp -mm $url/A $url/Y $svnmucc -mm -- put - $url/Y/f <<EOD Af x Af yyyy Af EOD $svn co $url/A wc $svn merge --reintegrate ^/X wc $svn ci -mm wc $svn sw $url/Y wc $svn merge ^/A wc $svn ci -mm wc $svn sw $url/A wc $svn merge --reintegrate ^/Y wc $svn ci -mm wc Running "svn log -gvq file://`pwd`/repo/A/f" using 1.6 gives duplicate output and the duplication is indeed reduced in 1.7, but 1.7 still has duplicates: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r9 | pm | 2011-04-27 18:09:18 +0100 (Wed, 27 Apr 2011) Changed paths: M /A M /A/f ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r8 | pm | 2011-04-27 18:09:15 +0100 (Wed, 27 Apr 2011) Changed paths: M /Y M /Y/f Merged via: r9 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r7 | pm | 2011-04-27 18:09:12 +0100 (Wed, 27 Apr 2011) Changed paths: M /A M /A/f Merged via: r9, r8 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r4 | pm | 2011-04-27 18:09:09 +0100 (Wed, 27 Apr 2011) Changed paths: M /X/f Merged via: r9, r8, r7 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r3 | pm | 2011-04-27 18:09:09 +0100 (Wed, 27 Apr 2011) Changed paths: A /X (from /A:2) Merged via: r9, r8, r7 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r6 | pm | 2011-04-27 18:09:10 +0100 (Wed, 27 Apr 2011) Changed paths: M /Y/f Merged via: r9 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r5 | pm | 2011-04-27 18:09:09 +0100 (Wed, 27 Apr 2011) Changed paths: A /Y (from /A:4) Merged via: r9 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r7 | pm | 2011-04-27 18:09:12 +0100 (Wed, 27 Apr 2011) Changed paths: M /A M /A/f ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r2 | pm | 2011-04-27 18:09:09 +0100 (Wed, 27 Apr 2011) Changed paths: A /A/f ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r7 appears twice, one instance is a direct change to A/f, the other is via merge. Is it correct that r7 should appear twice? The other confusing thing is that branch creations, r3 and r5, appear in the output although the file was not modified in those revisions. Is it correct for those revisions to appear? -- Philip
