1.10.0-alpha3 CHANGES

From: Daniel Shahaf <d.s_at_daniel.shahaf.name>
Date: Tue, 18 Jul 2017 21:47:36 +0000

Hi,

I'm working on CHANGES for alpha3. Could I please get a hand on the
following six changes. For each of them: does it need to be listed in
CHANGES? How'd you summarize the user-visible (or API-consumer-visible)
change in a sentence?

(In one or two case, I also wonder whether backport nominations are in
order, but that's orthogonal to the CHANGES work.)

> Stop recommending resolution options which follow incoming moves for merges.
>
> It makes sense for update and switch. If merging, however, the user may want
> to apply an incoming edit to the node's old location, e.g. when backporting
> a file edit to an older release branch where the move should not be applied.
> Recommending that the move be applied without user interaction is not helpful
> in such a case. Instead, the resolver should offer two options:
> apply the move + edits, or apply edits at the old location.
> The latter option is not yet implemented.
>
> * subversion/libsvn_client/conflicts.c
> (init_wc_move_targets): Only recommend options which follow incoming moves
> for conflicts raised by update and switch operations.

> Fix issue #4677.
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SVN-4677 "svn up fails after a file is added, moved, deleted, replaced by a directory, and a file in the directory is deleted"
>
> When non-exitent paths are allowed as a result of a DAG-walk
> (as opposed to creating a "path not found" error on those),
> we may encounter file nodes in the "parent" path. Those are
> not an error but simply an indication that there won't be any
> sub-paths.
>
> * subversion/libsvn_fs_fs/tree.c
> (open_path): If n/a paths are allowed, non-dir parents are, too.
>
> * subversion/libsvn_fs_x/dag_cache.c
> (svn_fs_x__get_dag_path): Same.
>
> * subversion/tests/libsvn_fs/fs-test.c
> (closest_copy_test_svn_4677): Add regression test.
> (test_funcs): Register new test.

> Address a minor initialization lib issue in svnmucc.
>
> Clients should always explictly initialize the libraries that they are using.
> This prevents issues during the application tear-down phase.
>
> * subversion/svnmucc/svnmucc.c
> (sub_main): Explicitly initialize the RA layer just like the CL client does.

> was uncovered.
>
> * subversion/include/private/svn_dep_compat.h
> (svn_atomic_casptr, svn_atomic_xchgptr): New.
>
> * subversion/libsvn_fs/fs-loader.c
> (struct fs_type_defn): Add missing volatile to vtable element, change
> type to void * to avoid cast (we lose no type safety since we never
> access the value as any other type).

>
> * subversion/libsvn_subr/utf.c
> (atomic_swap): Remove explicit cast.

Last but not least, thanks to Evgeny for writing detailed introductory
paragraphs in his log messages, which made it very easy to understand
the high-level behaviour changes (as opposed to the symbol-level
changes, which are less important in the context of writing CHANGES).

Thanks,

Daniel
