Public bug reported: Ubuntu Saucy (13.10), ikiwiki version 3.20130212ubuntu1.
I'm using the git backend for ikiwiki. When I make an edit in the web interface and leave an empty edit summary, the change is not automatically committed by git. If the edit summary is not blank the change will be automatically committed as expected. I expect the edits to be automatically committed by git whether or not I have entered an edit summary. It's possibly due to a behavior change in git as the version of ikiwiki didn't change between Raring (which worked correctly) and Saucy. When using the current version from Debian Jessie (3.20130904.1) this works as expected. Confusing the issue is this commit in ikiwiki which is in Jessie's version but not Saucy's: http://source.ikiwiki.branchable.com/?p=source.git;a=blobdiff;f=IkiWiki/Plugin/git.pm;h=bbdcbdba82aba3b4c6499245e5d8f6bc9f041285;hp=0852ce10d35c403d3f744269848d408c411d11f2;hb=946af13ae60da6a8688e66bbe17dd1a012e5d747;hpb=b162563dc1c6126953e66cdcc508f389b9d39d8e It's confusing as it's used when git version > 1.7.8, however both raring and saucy's git version is higher than that and raring worked correctly with empty edit summaries while saucy does not. ** Affects: ikiwiki (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: saucy -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1246328 Title: ikiwiki does not "git commit" when saving web interface edit with empty edit summary To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ikiwiki/+bug/1246328/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
