Richard asked that I give more information on ticket 1e919e389b here on the mailing list.
What I was seeing, and reported in that ticket, was this: * I was running on Ubuntu Karmic Koala. * I did a "fossil all sync" to sync a local repository with the one on my web server; I saw the "delta" and "artifact" numbers being received that I expected. * I went to my local work area and did a "fossil update". It returned silently, when I knew it should not. * I then did a "fossil open" in a new directory, and got the checkout I expected. * I then checked another project's repository and had the same experience with that one. * In both cases, "fossil status" indicated that I was up-to-date with the trunk. Richard then asked that I try a number of things: * What do you see if you "strace" in front of "fossil update": * A whole lot of stuff, which I was at a loss to interpret. What should I be looking for? * What do you see if you use "--sqltrace"? * Again, a whole lot of stuff. What should I be looking for? I can attach it to an e-mail if you like. * Does "fossil update" work if you specify a specific version to check out? * YES, it does. * Have I tried running fossil in a debugger to see what is going on? * Nope. I'm not building it myself. * What commands actually work? * "fossil sync" works. * "fossil ui" works. * "fossil status" reports a different checkout UUID than the head and reports the same as fossil status. * "fossil info" reports the same. * "fossil extras" shows the files I'd expect. I think the overall sequence of events might have been something like this: * I have two laptops, A and B, and a web server. * I had made changes on A, and done a "fossil commit". I suspect that these changes had NOT been synced with the repository on the web server. * I had made changes on B, and done a "fossil commit" followed by a "fossil sync". These changes were to different files than the changes on A. * I then did a "fossil sync" on A. * And then "fossil update" in the working directories on A didn't update anything. Any ideas?
