Package: subversion
Version: 1.1.3-1
Release: sarge
When I tried to merge in a branch to a trunk, the
symlink in branch cannot properly created in trunk.
The following is an example.
/repo/trunk
/repo/my-branch
at this time, trunk and my-branch are identical.
1. create the link in my-branch
========================================
svn co file:///repo/my-branch my-branch
cd my-branch
ln -sf somefile mylink
svn add mylink
svn commit
=========================================
2. verify the link
=========================================
svn co file:///repo/my-branch update-branch
=========================================
here the symlink is properly restored on checkout
3. merge my-branch to trunk
=========================================
svn co file:///repo/trunk trunk
cd trunk
svn merge -r10:11 file:///repo/my-branch
=========================================
here the file of the symlink is still created but it
is an empty file rather than a symlink
hope that is enough to explain the bug.
regards
gary
