== [svn] Initial revision is a move ==

[https://launchpad.net/bugs/58029 Bug 58029].

It appears that when a svn branch is created by a move (copy + delete), the initial imported revision is empty, which causes a failure on the first revision that tries to modify a pre-existing file.

In the case of the katapult import (svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/extragear/utils/katapult), the branch is created at revision 521764 by moving from /trunk/playground/utils/katapult:521763. The initial revision of the bzr import is an empty tree.

== [svn] unreliable server ==

The current svn import code makes many connections and does not retry when one fails. If the server is in the least unreliable (one failure every few thousand attempts to create a session) that will cause the import to fail.

See [https://launchpad.net/bugs/120992 bug 120992] (use persistent svn_ra sessions and reconnect on failure).

It could be that some of these failures are caused by another specific bug. From a discussion with Jelmer:

{{{
> > > * Don't rely on listdir() kind results. Fixes imports of several
> > > repositories. (#56647)
> > I'm curious about this bug. Can you tell me more?
> It turned out that the .kind member of dirents returned by
> svn.ra.get_dir2() is (semi-?)random when used against older Subversion
> servers. It would occasionally be 1 (svn.core.svn_node_file) even though
> the entry in question was a directory. This took me a while to track
> down. Instead, I've switched to always trying to open something as a
> directory and catching the appropriate exception that indicates it's a
> file.

That's very interesting. A number of Launchpad imports fail in a not-deterministic way with "failed REPORT". Currently I just classify those failures as "unreliable server", but I was puzzled by a pattern I noticed: the failures did not happen in a really random way.

It might be the same bug.

The import system will kill any job that does produce output for "a long time" (4 hours, at time of writing, on [[Date(2007-02-15T17:32:46Z)]]). So if, for some reason, an import does not report progress for a long time, either because it is stuck or because it is ''really slow'', it will fail.

== [svn] Partial copy ==

Current cscvs in production does not correctly handle revisions that combine a copy (that is 'A' or 'R' action with copyfrom set) with a simultaneous delete ('D' or 'R' action) in a path below the copy.

A new changeset generation logic that fixes this issue has been implemented and is currently undergoing review. When the code review and fixage has been completed, those import will be re-run and are expected to succeed.

Imports that failed to do REPORT on a path with a bang. I do not know what that means, but there's clearly a pattern.

This page tracks requests for actions from the vcs-imports operator. To request an import, please see the instructions on VcsImports.

Note that we only do imports of MAIN branches on CVS (the form will have to be updated to remove the "branch" field) and trunk branches on Subversion.

We will handle your request and keep you informed of progress or issues. You can contact a vcs-imports operator on #launchpad on irc.freenode.net.

[svn] svn_subst_translate_stream3

Imports that failed with the following error: 

python2.4: /build/buildd/subversion-1.3.1/subversion/libsvn_subr/subst.c:809: svn_subst_translate_stream3: Assertion `eol_str || keywords' failed.
process killed by signal 6

It looks like a problem in the svn code for keyword expansion.

[svn] bogus repository root detection

[svn] unreliable server

The current svn import code makes many connections and does not retry when one fails. If the server is in the least unreliable (one failure every few thousand attempts to create a session) that will cause the import to fail.

See [https://launchpad.net/bugs/120992 bug 120992] (use persistent svn_ra sessions and reconnect on failure).

It could be that some of these failures are caused by another specific bug. From a discussion with Jelmer: 

> > >    * Don't rely on listdir() kind results. Fixes imports of several
> > >      repositories. (#56647)
> > I'm curious about this bug. Can you tell me more?
> It turned out that the .kind member of dirents returned by
> svn.ra.get_dir2() is (semi-?)random when used against older Subversion
> servers. It would occasionally be 1 (svn.core.svn_node_file) even though
> the entry in question was a directory. This took me a while to track
> down. Instead, I've switched to always trying to open something as a
> directory and catching the appropriate exception that indicates it's a
> file.

That's very interesting. A number of Launchpad imports fail in a not-deterministic way with "failed REPORT". Currently I just classify those failures as "unreliable server", but I was puzzled by a pattern I noticed: the failures did not happen in a really random way.

It might be the same bug.

[svn] pysvn._pysvn.ClientError: Connection closed unexpectedly

[svn] import stalls, or is too slow

The import system will kill any job that does produce output for "a long time" (4 hours, at time of writing, on Date(2007-02-15T17:32:46Z)). So if, for some reason, an import does not report progress for a long time, either because it is stuck or because it is really slow, it will fail.

[cvs] failed to open the modules file

[svn] Cannot import whole repository

The svn import code fails at processing imports at the root of a svn repository. Some repository are set up that way, with the actual root containing the source code. That's broken, but people actually do this.

See bug [https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad-cscvs/+bug/145240 145240].

    • cscvs creates a filler changeset 1.1->1.1.1.2 for include/adodb/pear/readme.Auth.txt, but there is no revision 1.1.1.2 for that file. The cvs rlog shows revision 1.1 (branches: 1.1.1) used in changeset MAIN.915, revision 1.1.1.1, not used by cscvs. The cvs log header for that file reads "head: 1.1" and "branch: 1.1.1".

(15:28:25) lifeless: I'd do a search in the file revision table for that file, all revisions, see what cscvs is thinking happened to it

Unknown failures

Failed to fork, memory error

Some large imports fail to os.fork() (when spawning gpg to sign a revision) with "OSError: [Errno 12] Cannot allocate memory". It's not clear why that happen, since Linux should overcommit memory up to 50x (the value of /proc/sys/vm/overcommit_ratio) and allow large processes like cscvs to spawn small processes like gpg.
