Try going to
http://svn.collab.net/scripts/tweak-log.cgi
and entering `2608' as the revision number (you may need commit access
for this). The revision's log message shows up as empty. If you do a
View Source, you'll see no log message data there at all! At least,
that's what happens to me with Mozilla. Does it happen for anyone
else?
2608 is one of the few revisions with 8-bit UTF-8 characters in it
(Brane's family name, actually). You can see it with
I just discovered this when I tried to tweak a recent log message:
$ cat new-msg.txt
* HACKING: Mention the need to call apr_initialize() first.
Thanks to Steve Küng (ichselbst@gmx.ch) for the suggestion.
$ svn propset --revprop -r 3728 -F new-msg.txt svn:log
Then when I checked the new log message in my browser, at the above
URL, it was empty.
However, I was able to use this command
$ svn propget --revprop -r 3728 svn:log
to see the message, although the umlaut came out garbled (odd, as I
thought I had an 8859-1 system). On the other hand, when I tried the
same thing for Brane's revision, I got an error:
$ svn propget --revprop -r 2608 svn:log
Unversioned properties on revision 2608:
subversion/libsvn_subr/utf.c:168: (apr_err=22, src_err=0)
svn: Invalid argument
svn: failure during string recoding
$
I'm not sure what to think about that. On the one hand, Brane's
family name doesn't code in 8859-1. On the other hand, we have
graceful degradation for 'svn log', so at least the rest of the bytes
are visible, and probably we should do that when fetching the
`svn:log' property too.
Anyway, regarding the fact that *neither* message shows up in
tweak-log.cgi: an ethereal trace shows that the data is truly not
there, so the problem is that the server is not even sending it:
