#66: Tailored HG repository ends up with lots of ?'s in dir state, most likely
related to renames in subversion
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
Reporter: mae | Owner: lele
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: critical | Milestone:
Component: svn | Version: 0.9
Keywords: rename, dirstate |
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
This was a conversion from SVN => HG
The source repository in question is the capistrano deployment tool.
Versions
Tailor: latest darcs as of today
SVN: svn, version 1.3.1 (r19032)
hg: Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 00fc88b0b256)
Reproduce Steps:
1. run "tailor tailor.conf" (with the attached conf)
2. cd capistrano/migrated
3. hg status (notice all the ?'s)
heres my output:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tailor$ cd capistrano/
migrated/ original/
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tailor$ cd capistrano/migrated/
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tailor/capistrano/migrated$ hg status

Explanation of why I think it is an issue with renaming:
A: HG doesn't support renames
B: subversion does (so if you ask it about the history of something it
tells you even when the file was named differently)
C: capistrano went through a large rename from "switchtower" recently
