Hello, I have been working the module renaming for PEP-3108, and I just noticed that some buildbots are throwing errors while updating their checkout. It seems the method I use for renaming modules hits a subversion bug on certain platforms. The error thrown looks like this:
... svn: In directory 'build/Lib/plat-mac' svn: Can't move source to dest svn: Can't move 'build/Lib/plat-mac/.svn/tmp/prop-base/pixmapwrapper.py.svn-base' to 'build/Lib/plat-mac/.svn/prop-base/pixmapwrapper.py.svn-base': No such file or directory program finished with exit code 1 (http://www.python.org/dev/buildbot/all/x86 osx.5 trunk/builds/201/step-svn/0) When I rename a module I use "svn copy", since "svn remove" doesn't pick up changes made to the "deleted" file. For example, here is what I did for PixMapWrapper: svn copy ./Lib/plat-mac/PixMapWrapper.py ./Lib/plat-mac/pixmapwrapper.py edit ./Lib/plat-mac/PixMapWrapper.py svn commit It seems that I could avoid this error by using "cp" instead of "svn copy" (which I did use for renaming copy_reg). However, I am not sure if this method doesn't preserve the full history of file. So, how should I do to fix the failing buildbots? -- Alexandre _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
