On a Debian/unstable machine with Subversion 1.9.2 and the MPFR repository:
I currently have: zira:~> TZ=UTC svn log -r 1984 -v file:///home/vinc17/private/svn-mpfr ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r1984 | vlefevre | 2002-07-23 16:22:08 +0000 (Tue, 23 Jul 2002) | 2 lines Changed paths: M /trunk/mul.c Fixed permissions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ But after a dump-load: zira:~> TZ=UTC svn log -r 1984 -v file:///home/vinc17/private/test-svn-mpfr ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r1984 | vlefevre | 2002-07-23 16:22:08 +0000 (Tue, 23 Jul 2002) | 2 lines Fixed permissions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The "M /trunk/mul.c" line has been lost! FYI, this came from the CVS conversion, where the permissions of mul.c were changed, but with no effect in the SVN repository. I don't know whether this is due to a buggy change in the format of the dump, or a bug in the load. The dump of this revision changed in the following way for this revision: Node-path: trunk/mul.c Node-kind: file Node-action: change -Text-delta: true -Text-delta-base-md5: a79ede6a595f7bad6a4549c23ef9cd2b -Text-delta-base-sha1: a9ce78ba643c727019f926d957f37414cfc1a050 -Text-content-length: 15 -Text-content-md5: a79ede6a595f7bad6a4549c23ef9cd2b -Text-content-sha1: a9ce78ba643c727019f926d957f37414cfc1a050 -Content-length: 15 -[Contents] This might be related to: http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4598 -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
