Hi,
I'm pretty new to GIT. I quickly convinced our project to move to GIT,
except for one guy that wants to do Windows and CVS :-( I setup a test
and the checkout works just fine, but commit from cvs doesn't work. The
details:
* Server: git version 1.5.3.1 compiled on SuSE 10.2, 64-bits
* Client, both SuSE CVS 1.12.12 and the current WinCVS cvs.exe,
so it appears irrelevant.
I created a test repository from a papers directory using the sequence
beloe. (P.s. isn't there a more elegant way to get to a bare shared repo
from a set of files? I tried (mkdir papers.git && cd papers.git && git
--bare init --shared=all), but I can't clone an empty bare repository
(doesn't create anything), so I can't add to it).
% cd ~/tmp/papers
% git-init
% git-add .
% git-commit
% cd /home/git
% git-clone --bare --no-hardlinks ~/tmp/papers/ papers.git
% cd papers.git
% git-config core.sharedrepository all
% chmod g+ws `find . -type d`
% chmod g+w `find . -type f`
Anyway, appears to work fine with GIT to clone, pull and push. Using
CVS over SSH, I can checkout this just fine, creating HEAD. Now I change
a file and run "cvs commit" to get:
gollem (2006) 11_> cvs commit -m "test"
cvs [commit aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any)
I enabled logging and added a few statements to git-cvsserver (line 1203)
$log->info("Start git show-ref -s refs/heads/$state->{module}");
# Remember where the head was at the beginning.
my $parenthash = `git show-ref -s refs/heads/$state->{module}`;
$log->info("parenthash = $parenthash");
chomp $parenthash;
if ($parenthash !~ /^[0-9a-f]{40}$/) {
$log->warn("error 1 pserver cannot find the current HEAD of
module");
exit;
}
Then I get this log output:
