It's kind of sad that we have so many ways of finding the SVN root. The code in that link isn't right. You need to look at the UUID to get the right answer. See scm.py.

You need to look at the UUID to get the right answer. See scm.py. My update made us look at the Repository Root field instead of looking at the error code returned by svn info. It seems like in practice this should be as good as the Repository UUID field. Or do you think I should change it? Also, if you and/or Darin were on IRC, I could ask this without annoying all the other folks on webkit-dev@ :) PK ___ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev

Yes, I saw scm.py's solution literally yesterday while I was learning how to use bugzilla-tool because I switched to git. In any case the newer revision uses a much better approach then the one in this changelog (Repository Root) and ultimately the best approach would be using the UUID like you suggested. ___ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev

I can switch svn-create-patch to using UUID if there are benefits over using the Repository Root; it'd literally be a four-character change. In the meantime, I've tried and failed to recreate Darin's problem locally, so I'm at the mercy of other people to report that they're having this problem. In case it helps, the relevant bugs where svn-create-patch was changed seem to be bug 26999 (source of the original change eseidel mentions) and bug 27323 (source of my updates to the recently-added root calculation code).

The key here is that /Users/darin is a symbolic link to /Volumes/ Home/darin — you can probably reproduce this by putting the checkout directory inside a symbolic link. In determineSvnRoot(), $last is .. and then $svnRoot ends up as / Users/darin/Safari/OpenSource/WebKit/.., which seems bad. Is rel2abs supposed to handle that? In chdirAndGetDifference(), before is /Users/darin/Safari/OpenSource/ WebKit and after is /Volumes/Home/darin/Safari/OpenSource. -- Darin ___ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev

Could you try this and see if it works? Also, any Perl hackers are welcome to chip in here on how the current code should be improved. I just looked up docs on the File::Spec module and saw them mentioning something about realpath() that might be relevant here... Looking at this more, this code just looks wrong to me (although, like I said, I know roughly zero Perl, so my instincts are not trustworthy). Perhaps instead of the hack above, try adding use Cwd; to the top of the file and then changing this to: ... my ($newdir) = @_; my $before = Cwd::getcwd(); chdir $newdir; my $after = Cwd::getcwd(); ... That seems like it ought to work a lot better. If that solves your problem, I'll get this reviewed and checked in.
