I am running into an issue with importing a patch that contains a binary
file. In my case this is a bmp and/or png files (I have tested both
types). 

 

If I in a cloned test repository I commit a change which includes a new
bmp/png file, everything works just fine. I export this change as a
patch and import it into another repository which can either be the
parent repo or another clone (the parent is the scenario I am wanting to
make work). The application of the patch fails "abort: patch command
failed: exited with status 1", now this only fails if the only file in
the update is the bmp/png file. If the patch contains another file like
a text file and a bmp/png file, the application of the patch doesn't
show any errors but the binary file doesn't ever get created in the
repository.

 

As a side note, pushing from the clone works just fine, it is only when
exporting then importing that fails. Also the size of the binary file
isn't an issue, it is only 4k.

 

Is this a limitation when using binary files or am I doing something
wrong?
