Re: svnlite behaviour changed?

Thanks!

I did not make it very clear but the whole thing started when I used 
FreeBSD-CURRENT - that is sometime in December I observed that although the 
revision number is increased, there are no updates listed; the fact that the 
revision number is the revision of the whole repository and not the revision of 
the branch I follow explains. There was some kind of source freeze of the 
CURRENT branch if I recollect correctly the release schedule. A week ago I 
installed FreeBSD-12.2-RELEASE, but its source changes rather rarely so I again 
I got only increasing revision numbers.

Thanks again!

best regards

András Krasznai

First, please note that this list is "freebsd-current@" -- by
definition, a "release" (such as FreeBSD-12.2-RELEASE) is not "current."

Second, the revision number at the end of "svn update" is the last
revision for the entire repository -- which is NOT the same thing as
"the last revision for the branch" (that you are using).

Thus, if there are changes to other branches (but not the one you are
tracking), the revision number reported will continue to go up, but
there will be no changes to the files in your branch.

Finally, please be aware that the svn repository is no longer the
"Source of Truth" for FreeBSD.  Rather, for (recent) stable branches (<=
12), committed changes to the Source of Truth are subsequently
"replayed" into the subversion repository.  As I understand it, there
are no plans to provide this for stable/13 or subsequent branches (or
for current).

Peace,
david

I believe this is part of the switch to git; svn repository is no longer 
updated for stable/13 or main (which is HEAD).

I now no longer use svn on src or doc tree; am tracking stable/13 and main; not 
interested in stable/12 or anything < 12.

svnlite behaviour changed?

2021-01-26 Thread M - Krasznai András
Good morning!

I regularly sync my FreeBSD source tree with the central repository using svn 
update. I use a one-lis script to synchonize, which  sends the output of svn to 
a file, and also copies to the console. This list contained - according to the 
'svn help update' - one line for any item which was updated or inserted, 
deleted etc and at the end it shows the (new) revision number of the repository.

Some time ago during december this changed: the svn output contained one line 
only, which informed me the new revision number but I did not get listing of 
the updated items. If there are no updated items then why is the revision 
number increasing, or if there are updates the why aren't they listed?

A week ago I installed FreeBSD-12.2-RELEASE, and now I saw the same: svn update 
changes the revision number of the source tree, and the newly compiled kernel 
has that revision number, but no listing of updates.  svn checkout listed the 
files as they were read from the central repository.

Is this a change of svn while the help text remained the old one,  or there is 
a change in the svn repositories, or is this part of the move to git?
Üdvözlettel
