Hi Ross, I was looking through the history of the imported version of jhbuild, and it seems that the order of the changesets is incorrect.
I ran the command "svn log http://svn.gnome.org/svn/jhbuild/trunk";, and I was surprised at the ordering of the log messages. Here are some selected entries that demonstrate the problem: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r331 | jamesh | 2001-10-26 07:25:29 +0800 (Fri, 26 Oct 2001) | 5 lines 2001-10-25 James Henstridge <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * moduleinfo.py (gnome1): add initial (untested) support for building the gnome 1.x platform. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r323 | jamesh | 2001-10-23 12:39:07 +0800 (Tue, 23 Oct 2001) | 2 lines my gnome2 build scripts (which a few others wanted to play with). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r322 | mxpxpod | 1997-01-04 14:18:14 +0800 (Sat, 04 Jan 1997) | 4 lines 2003-09-11 Bryan Forbes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * modulesets/gnome24.modules: Use gnome-2-4 branch of gnome-mime-data ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r321 | jeroen | 1997-01-04 12:04:01 +0800 (Sat, 04 Jan 1997) | 5 lines 2003-09-11 Jeroen Zwartepoorte <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * modulesets/gnome24.modules: Revert change by Bryan Forbes to make glimmer use HEAD instead of the dead new-gtksourceview branch. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r320 | calum | 1997-01-04 12:04:00 +0800 (Sat, 04 Jan 1997) | 2 lines Use gnome-2-4 branch for gnome-themes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r319 | jrb | 1997-01-04 12:03:59 +0800 (Sat, 04 Jan 1997) | 4 lines Mon Sep 8 16:35:26 2003 Jonathan Blandford <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * modulesets/gnome24.modules: Use gnome-2-4 branch ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r2 | jamesh | 1997-01-04 11:59:33 +0800 (Sat, 04 Jan 1997) | 5 lines 2001-10-25 James Henstridge <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * moduleinfo.py (gnome1): add initial (untested) support for building the gnome 1.x platform. >From the CVS history, the message associated with r323 is actually from my initial commit which was made in 2001. All the commits before r323 appear to have dates in 1997, which is before I ever created this module (they also have commit dates spaced by one second, which seems weird). Looking at the history in CVS, it seems that a few commits _are_ dated 1997, as can be seen here: http://cvs.gnome.org/viewcvs/jhbuild/modulesets/gnome24.modules?view=log&logsort=cvs#rev1.60 This probably indicates that the clock on the CVS server was incorrect for a little while in September 2003, and that incorrect date got recorded in the CVS history. Given the corrupt history in this module, I think it would be wise to check other modules for similar corruption around those dates in their history before committing to the migration.
