Hi All, I've bumped into something that I found peculiar over the last few days. I believe it's just a semantic issue that a few extra checks can resolve easily and I'm willing to do the work once I know what the desired consistent behaviour should be.
It seems that moving/renaming files has some inconsistency to it. I'm currently restructuring some documentation which has a massively new directory hierarchy and bumped into this problem. case 1: - add (not with mtn) a new dir D in top level (WSROOT) of workspace - mtn mv filea WSROOT/D/ - result => mtn: misuse: destination dir D/ is not versioned (perhaps add it?) case 2: - add (not with mtn) a new dir (D) in top level (WSROOT) of workspace - mtn mv filea WSROOT/D/filea - result => adds WSROOT/D, renames filea appropriately case 3: - mtn mv filea WSROOT/D/filea [where D was never created] - result => mtn: adding accounts to workspace manifest mtn: fatal: std::logic_error: roster.cc:600: invariant 'I(child != nd->children.end())' violated case 4: - mtn mv filea WSROOT/D/ [where D was never created] - result => mtn: renaming filea to D in workspace manifest So, case 3 is a bug, which I can either provide the required logs for or a patch later. Case 1 and 2 demonstrate what I consider to be the inconsistency. I would suggest that case 1 should behave like 2...and that's a dead simple fix that I can bang out and provide tests for relatively quickly. Case 4 would be resolved with a fix that makes case 1 and 2 consistent. If it helps, this was all done with revision 3747642cbeee203a72a36f6cf9ee9908a68288d5 (although I encountered an error with 0.35 and then started poking). Is everyone happy with what I'm proposing or should the semantics go the other way?
