mergeinfo-normalizer issue with irrelevant ranges

[Stefan Hett]

Hi,

hope it's ok to discuss this on this list rather than the users list 
(since the tool is not part of a released version):

I'm looking at the following output from mergeinfo-normalizer analyse:

Trying to elide mergeinfo from path
    E:/[projects]/XR/clean_source_branch/src/SDKs/libVMM
    into mergeinfo at path
    E:/[projects]/XR/clean_source_branch/src

    All branches still exist in HEAD.

    Try to elide remaining branches:
    CANNOT elide branch /XRebirth/trunk/src/SDKs/libVMM
        revisions missing in sub-node: 
191090,191096,191235,191239,191241,191243,191397,191459,191461-191462,191464,191467-191470,191615,191717-191718,193849,194280
    CANNOT elide branch /XRebirth/branches/XR_porting/src/SDKs/libVMM
        revisions missing in sub-node: 194976

    Branches not mentioned in parent:
    /SDKs/libVMM/trunk
    /SDKs/libVMM/tags/rev17
    /SDKs/libVMM/tags/rev18

    Sub-tree merge info cannot be elided due to the following branches:
    /SDKs/libVMM/trunk
    /XRebirth/branches/XR_porting/src/SDKs/libVMM
    /SDKs/libVMM/tags/rev17
    /SDKs/libVMM/tags/rev18
    /XRebirth/trunk/src/SDKs/libVMM


I don't quite understand why it thinks that these revisions are missing 
in the sub-node. Attached is the log-output I'm getting for revision 
191090. As far as I see this is completely independant from 
src/SDKs/libVMM and shouldn't be required at all... Am I wrong? (aka: 
all changes in that commit are under src/FOO/xxx which is different from 
src/SDKs)

Regards,
Stefan
