I was trying to use Tailor to keep a SVN repo in sync with a CVS repo on SourceForge, but I get a stack trace and an error about halfway through the rlog command.

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe5 in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)
This is an encoding trouble, way too frequent for my taste, but against which I did not come up with a wise solution.
Your upstream repository is using some encoding that the python codec could not translate to unicode. The python codec in use is a function of environment settings such as LANG and friends (see locale(1)) and the "encoding" configuration bits.
Others have faced this kind of error, but unfortunately nobody suggested a workaround :-|
Please, try to dig a little: it would be interesting to know you system locale ($LANG, and output of locale(1), and possibly output of "python -m locale" (or "python /usr/lib/python2.3/locale.py" under python 2.3).
ciao, lele. _______________________________________________ Tailor mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zooko.com/mailman/listinfo/tailor
