Bug#290774: fixed in subversion 1.3.1-3

2006-05-06 Thread Peter Samuelson
[Vincent Lefevre] This is a very bad idea, as the encoding of the files from the repository is common for every user, thus does not necessarily correspond to the locales. subversion has to guess, one way or another. Guessing that you want your files to look like UTF-8 but your filenames to

severity 365987 wishlist thanks [Thomas Schlegel] If I create a Repository as root, I can't use it as user. If I create a Repository as normal user in my $HOME, other users can't use it. That's simply a matter of Unix permissions management. It's not specific to Subversion and it's not a

[Davor Ocelic] I suppose the $(date +'%d %b %Y') was meant to have the effect of backticks, but $( is expanded by Makefile, resulting in the build called with --release=. Right, obviously I meant $$(date +'%d %b %Y'). At that point, the build stops with: Option release requires an

Bug#350893: control socket not being removed

2006-04-19 Thread Peter Samuelson
It may be an openssh bug that it refuses to operate when nobody is listening on the control socket, but the reason the socket wasn't cleaned up is indeed subversion's fault. svn kills ssh with SIGKILL for reasons I won't get into right now, except to say that I'm about to patch it not to do

[Max Bowsher] Perhaps subversion should Depends: libsvn0 (= ${Source-Version}) ? This would avoid potential for confusion. Hmmm. On the one hand, in Debian we try to keep our dependencies only as tight as they need to be - to support partial upgrades as best we can, and maintain as much
