Summary: mtime granularity issue may affect backup/restore
Product: SCM Migration
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: Solaris 11/Nevada
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: cdm
AssignedTo: scm-migration-dev at opensolaris.org
ReportedBy: richlowe at richlowe.net
Hg decides a working file is modified if its mtime, size, or (important) mode
differs from that recorded in the dirstate.
The granularity of the OS mtime is thus important to it. It's possible that in
restore, when applying bundle then patch (or just in general), we may miss
files that don't change in size or mode, and are patched within that
granularity.
I'm having trouble verifying this is in fact what's happening to a test case I
have, but want to record it here to make sure it's noted before I go digging
further.
