Really ?!
Then we have to remove the backbranches from the git.

Yeah, or fix them.

This thread isn't exactly leaving me with a warm fuzzy feeling about
moving the master repository to git.  *Why* is the mirror broken, and
what assurances do we have that the problem won't recur in the proposed
transition?

                        

AFAICT it is broken because the particular tool that is used, which is the only one that supports an incremental mode, is a bit broken. I am told that the non-incremental tools are more robust.

That said, this is more than a little annoying. It means, for example, that I can't test out a Git mode for the buildfarm client on all the back branches.

If any Ruby hacker feels like fixing it please speak up. The reported source of the software seems to have gone away. I can let you have my copy, which reliably reproduces the error, so we have a good failure test case.

cheers
