New submission from Jeremy Ehrhardt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: When operating on an HFS+ file system, darcs 1.0.8 will sometimes fail partway through a darcs get when applying patches. This behavior doesn't happen on UFS file systems.
An example: --- Looking-Glass:~/src jeremye$ darcs get --partial http:// darcs.haskell.org/c2hs/Copying patch 179 of 179... done! Applying patch 107 of 179... Unapplicable patch: Wed May 18 03:42:11 EDT 2005 [EMAIL PROTECTED] * rearranging darcs repo darcs failed: Error applying hunk to file ./base/todo Looking-Glass:~/src jeremye$ cd /Volumes/UFS/ Looking-Glass:/Volumes/UFS jeremye$ darcs get --partial http:// darcs.haskell.org/c2hs/ Copying patch 179 of 179... done! Applying patch 179 of 179... done. Finished getting. Looking-Glass:/Volumes/UFS jeremye$ darcs --version 1.0.8 (release) Looking-Glass:/Volumes/UFS jeremye$ ghc --version The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 6.6 Looking-Glass:/Volumes/UFS jeremye$ uname -a Darwin Looking-Glass.local 8.8.1 Darwin Kernel Version 8.8.1: Mon Sep 25 19:42:00 PDT 2006; root:xnu-792.13.8.obj~1/RELEASE_I386 i386 i386 --- This is using darcs 1.0.8, GHC 6.6 (both installed from source through MacPorts if it matters), Mac OS 10.4.8 (Intel). I believe it has something to do with HFS+ case insensitivity, since base/todo is actually called base/TODO in the c2hs repository when I view it in a browser. There are mentions of other problems on HFS+ <http:// lists.osuosl.org/pipermail/darcs-users/2005-March/005938.html> but I don't know whether this is related or whether the problem is even specific to darcs. ---------- messages: 1456 nosy: EricKow, arachnoid, beschmi, droundy, tommy status: unread title: Mac OS X filesystem-related glitch ____________________________________ Darcs issue tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.darcs.net/issue404> ____________________________________ _______________________________________________ darcs-devel mailing list [email protected] http://www.abridgegame.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/darcs-devel
