Bug#314524: creates pristine copy in parent directory

[martin f krafft]

found 314524 1.4.1-1 1.4.2
tags 314524 upstream fixed-upstream
retitle 314524 [fixed in 1.5] creates pristine copy in parent directory
thanks

also sprach Rob Weir [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2005.07.23.1520 +0200]:
 And it appears to be fixed in 1.4.1-1.  Can you confirm this for me?

Unfortunately, I can't try 1.4.1-1, but I tried 1.4.2 from
http://bazaar.canonical.com/releases/debs/ and the problem persists
there.

I also tried 1.5~200508022334 from
http://bazaar.canonical.com/packages/debs/ and that has it fixed, so
it seems the 'search parent' heuristic has finally left bazaar with
1.5.

Thus, please close this bug with the upload of 1.5.

Bug#314524: creates pristine copy in parent directory

[martin f krafft]

Package: bazaar
Version: 1.4.1
Severity: normal

seamus% cd /etc/moin 
seamus% baz diff
* looking for [EMAIL PROTECTED]/moin--main--0--patch-1 to compare with
unable to create directory /etc/,,new-pristine.1118956633.10141.2 (Permission 
denied)
PANIC: I/O error

No matter where I actually store my repositories, baz (and tla)
require write access to the parent directory. This is quite bad and
reminiscent of some grave errors in the design.

It is likely that baz (or tla) wants to optimise and use the
pristine copy in the parent directory, which they assume holds other
branches of the same category as well. If it does not find
a pristine copy there, it then tries to create one.

Since both tools boast that they use hardlinks to conserve space,
I see no reason why the pristine copy shouldn't be kept in {arch},
which would make the checkout be independent of its location on the
filesystem.

Thanks for your consideration.
