That would be a bug in hg-svn, right? Yes, the revision is not valid on case-folding systems - but why should that break hg-svn? The tool should be able to represent such stuff in its repository (whatever concept of repository hg may have); it should then only fail if you also want to check out that specific revision. There is no way to remove this revision from the repository now (other than a full dump|filter|load cycle, which I would rather want to avoid). > I know it's a rare situation, but can people PLEASE be careful not to > introduce case issues like this - they pollute history for ever (I > still hit problems with some of the case funkiness in svn from the > early 1990's!!!) Subversion's first release was in October 2000; it wasn't self-hosting until 2001 :-) Regards, Martin _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
