Enlistment updates seems to have frozen

Hi there

The enlistment for the 'extfn' (defacto trunk) branch for our project was last updated 6 months ago. Why has it stopped? Is there something wrong?

Hi JP,

Yes, there was something wrong on our end. It looks like this project got into a unique state that our scheduling code didn't cover.

I'll have to investigate, but for now I've manually scheduled an update. This should clear up the problem. I'll keep an eye on it.

Thanks,
Robin

Hi JP,

Unfortunately it appears that there is some kind of problem in revision 416 that prevents checking out the code:

~$ svn export -r 416 'http://ascendsvn.cheme.cmu.edu/ascend/code/trunk@416' ascend
svn: 'ascend/pygtk/interface/config.guess.tmp' has unsupported special file type '#!'

Do you know what is causing this problem?

Thanks,
Robin

No, I'm not sure what's happening with that. I don't think there's any problem with our repository though; perhaps SVN is trying to apply mime typing to this file? You could just suppress this revision in your import, if it's causing problems?

Cheers

Can you confirm that checkout is or is not working for you on this revision?

Skipping a revision is not trivial on our end; if it's possible to fix this in the source repository that is our great preference.

I had a problem checking out this revision, too. I get this error:

svn: In directory 'ascend-416/pygtk/interface'
svn: 'ascend-416/pygtk/interface/.svn/tmp/text-base/config.guess.svn-base' has unsupported special file type '#!'

I am able to look at this file in ViewVC however:

http://ascendcode.cheme.cmu.edu/viewvc.cgi/code/trunk/pygtk/interface/config.guess?revision=416&view=markup&pathrev=416

In there, you can see that the file starts with

#! /bin/sh

(note the space after the #!).

I'm not clear why svn would be spitting the dummy here... what would I do to fix the repository in this case?
