Dear list,
I'm experiencing some weird behaviour of SVN 1.7. The following
sequence of commands fails to respect --depth=empty:
svn co --depth=empty http://foundry.supelec.fr/svn/metapost
svn up --depth=empty metapost/tags
(you can use 'anonymous' as a username if it asks) The first command
runs fine, but the second one starts fetching all tags.
The workaround is to use
svn up --set-depth empty metapost/tags
before fetching anything with "svn up", but --depts=empty seems to be
respected in 1.6.16 and also makes a lot more sense the way it worked
earlier.
Is this a bug or my misunderstanding of how the above commands are
supposed to work? I noticed that some depth=empty-related issues are
mentioned in changelog for 1.7.1, but subversion 1.7.1 as shipped with
MacPorts on Mac OS X 10.7 doesn't seem to solve the problem for me.
Thank you very much,
Mojca
