I've spent two hours this morning chasing this bug. The cause that triggered the bug was that the /etc repository had been cloned by a sysadmin to another directory in the same filesystem. Therefore, to save space, Mercurial had made hardlinks on almost all the files in the repository thus triggering a line
abort: path contains illegal component for each file in the Mercurial repository. The last patch seems perfect to me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to etckeeper in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1115335 Title: hg displays errors in pre-commit.d/20warn-problem-files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/etckeeper/+bug/1115335/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
