(This was seen on a Windows 7 machine) When opening a repo, if you select to overwrite all files, and a file to be updated happens to be read-only (R attrib set), the overwrite fails (it should) but if you then change the read-only to read-write, and try to see changes or try to revert the failed to update file with the repo version, nothing happens. FOSSIL somehow assumes that the checkout is in a correct state, even though it failed to overwrite, and the repo and check-out have different copies of the same file.
Here’s the test batch file I ran which shows the problem: @echo off echo Reproduce fossil issue with read-only overwrite failure consequences echo (where f = fossil) f ver -v f new sample.fossil md xxx dir > xxx\aaa cd xxx f o ..\sample.fossil f add aaa f com -m "Initial" f close echo Make some changes to our file dir ../s > aaa attrib +r aaa echo Answer Y or A(ll) f o ..\sample.fossil echo Failed to update. Let's remove the read-only status, and see... attrib -r aaa f cha f rev f com echo Nothing shown here. But, if we close and re-open the repo. f close echo Answer N f o ..\sample.fossil f cha echo Obviously, there are changes!!! ------------------ OUTPUT ------------------ Reproduce fossil issue with read-only overwrite failure consequences (where f = fossil) This is fossil version 1.30 [b9a1beda9e] 2014-10-25 01:01:31 UTC Compiled on Oct 25 2014 19:30:07 using msc-18.00 (32-bit) SQLite 3.8.7 2014-10-17 11:24:17 e4ab094f8a Schema version 2011-04-25 19:50 zlib 1.2.8, loaded 1.2.8 SSL (OpenSSL 1.0.1j 15 Oct 2014) project-id: 097d5ac10db92bfe4d77daf15c6f2d34b75aaef7 server-id: 2f3a9fff39ebc03e8d9879929afa6075b8ee766f admin-user: Tony (initial password is "db3f67") project-name: <unnamed> repository: C:/temp/xxx/..\sample.fossil local-root: C:/temp/xxx/ config-db: C:/Users/Tony/AppData/Local/_fossil project-code: 097d5ac10db92bfe4d77daf15c6f2d34b75aaef7 checkins: 0 ADDED aaa New_Version: e2507b54298d9a57da83578667dc510861fed766 Make some changes to our file Answer Y or A(ll) overwrite C:/temp/xxx/aaa (a=always/y/N)? y aaa unable to open file "C:/temp/xxx/aaa" for writing Failed to update.
