I've tracked this problem down to the following change Revision: 9c0bb9b509e63897e6a52c907988cef2d4a8fe0d Ancestor: 1c069d8736d169b25eaa747d9a5ceabcb59e79b6 Author: [email protected] Date: 2009-01-23T22:43:07 Branch: net.venge.monotone.stripped ChangeLog: Configuration cleanup part 2. If anyone has time to look into the details it would probably be good to get it fixed before releasing 0.43. Initially, I tried bisecting revs manually but that got old pretty quickly. So, instead of grinding ahead I decided to write a proper bisect command to do the work for me. What I have so far worked well enough to help find the rev above and I've committed it to net.venge.monotone.bisect for now. It needs more work, docs, tests, etc. before it'll be ready for mainline. At the moment it does not update the workspace its running from, it just spits out a suggested revision to try next as you mark things as good or bad. I ran it in one workspace (as I was developing it) and updated and tested revs in another workspace to find the problem above. I'm going to be busy the next few days and them I'm going to be away for a couple of weeks so I won't have a chance to look into this problem myself or finish bisect in time for the next release. I'll be in the San Diego area though so if anyone from around there wants to get together for a beer or lunch I'm game for that. Cheers, Derek
