It would result in a massive merge commit and the duplication of the entire history. The correct solution is probably to (a) install Andrew's fixed version of the import tool on the server and (b) rewind the history on the server so it reimports all the subsequent commits. Sometimes doing only (b) is sufficient to correct the problem, since the tool seems rather sensitive to ephemeral states of the respository. Unfortunately, (a) has not happened. Magnus seems to feel that Andrew has not provided sufficient details about which version he should be running and whether it will likely break anything, and I gather that Andrew feels otherwise. Figuring out who is right and who is wrong and what to do about it is above my pay grade, but it would be really nice if someone could get this straightened out. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise Postgres Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
