RE: svnsync in post-revprop-change

Andy,
 
what does 'svn info' make of the URL when run on the server?
 
Tony.

        Hi.

                I have a potential bug in svn (1.6.3) when updating a
revprop (log in this case). System: server is VisualSVN server 1.6.3,
and client is TortoiseSVN using svn 1.6.3. I have the correct
pre-revprop-change hook in the repository.

                Now, the setup I have is that I've put a
post-revprop-change hook in that calls svnsync to a backup server, so
when a revprop is changed, the hook runs and syncs it to the server (so
I always get my changes copied, svnsync won't remember that a historic
revprop has changed otherwise).

                 When I attempt the revprop change, the whole chain
fails when running the sync. I get the error: "Unable to open an
ra_local session to URL" (of the destination I'm trying to sync to).

        If I try the sync command on the command line, it works fine.

                So - is it possible to get svnsync running in a
post-revprop-change hook, or have I missed something simple?

        My hook is simple:

        svnsync -non-interactive sync file:///s:/RepoBackup

        svnsync -non-interactive copy-revprops file:///s:/RepoBackup %2
<file:///s:/RepoBackup %2>

        the first sync is to ensure all revisions are sync'ed before I
try to update the backup's revprop. There is a pre-revprop-change hook
on the backup repository to allow changes. Note that I can't use
svnserve or apache on the backup location, so I use the file protocol on
a network share. I can't change this.
