So I have been using TortoiseSVN client with Visual Studio and VisualSVN and
SVN running on a Gentoo Linux box for over 6 months now, and I gotta say I
love it. About a week ago I upgraded to TortoiseSVN 1.5 client and love the
new version. My only problem is that I was trying to merge a branch I
created prior to updating and kept getting an error about the server not
supporting mergeinfo. This I understand because I have done a fair bit of
homework and knew that the SVN developers were working on integration merge
tracking. A quick check of the subversion homepage let me know that for
this to work I needed 1.5 of the server and an upgraded repository. Again
no biggy. I unmasked subversion 1.5 in Gentoo (they have not officially
released it to the Gentoo portage tree yet), and installed. Everything was
great, no issues crept up during compile or install. I can browse my
repository just fine, check out code, no issues.
The reason I am posting is that when I try to merge, specifically
"Reintegrate a branch", no matter the project I am working on, when I
perform a Test merge or the real thing I get the following error:
Command: Reintegrate merge https://svn.rite.local/repos/Internal
Applications/RITE Developer SDK/3.0/Branch/1 into C:\Documents and
Settings\rsakry\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\Internal
Projects\SDK Temp
Error: Malformed URL for repository
Finished!:
Now I have Googled this to exhaustion, and found some similar errors, but
not a resolution to this issue. I figured perhaps this is why Gentoo still
had the new version marked as masked so I uninstalled it and downloaded the
source code and compiled myself. Again I am able to browse, check out, etc,
but again I cannot merge. Same problems.
Anyone have any thoughts? Anything I can try, any more information I can
get to help come up with a solution? Or do I just have to wait for 1.5.1
which apparently is coming out sometime in the next week or two?
Your help is certainly appreciated.
