> SVN provider reports a warning for 'X' status as unknown, but it's an
> external link

> Key: SCM-243
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SCM-243
> Project: Maven SCM (Moved to GitHub Issues)
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: maven-scm-provider-svn
> Affects Versions: 1.0-beta-3
> Environment: Windows XP SP2, Sun JDK 1.4.2_12, Maven 2.0.4, SVN 1.4.0
> Reporter: Nathan Beyer
> Assignee: Emmanuel Venisse
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.0-rc1

>
> When performing a 'release:prepare' on a project that contains an
> 'svn:externals' linked folder, the following warnings and messages are
> produced.
> [INFO] Unknown file status: 'X'.
> [WARNING] Unexpected input, the line must be at least seven characters long.
> Line: ''.
> [INFO] Unknown file status: 'P'.
> I'm not sure what's causing the "unexpected input" and "P" message, but the
> "X" message is from a folder in the project that is pulled into the working
> copy via the svn:externals property [1]. This is an SVN property that's set
> on a folder and makes the SVN client perform an additional "unversioned"
> checkout of a URL. The externals will only exist in the working copy. When
> the "svn status" is run on a project an external item is given the status
> "X". As such, the status X can safely be ignored and treated as either "no
> modification" or "ignored" would be.
> Here's a dump of the help from svn status for more information.
> C:\temp>svn help status
> status (stat, st): Print the status of working copy files and directories.
> usage: status [PATH...]
> With no args, print only locally modified items (no network access).
> With -u, add working revision and server out-of-date information.
> With -v, print full revision information on every item.
> The first six columns in the output are each one character wide:
> First column: Says if item was added, deleted, or otherwise changed
> ' ' no modifications
> 'A' Added
> 'C' Conflicted
> 'D' Deleted
> 'I' Ignored
> 'M' Modified
> 'R' Replaced
> 'X' item is unversioned, but is used by an externals definition
> '?' item is not under version control
