Revision applies to directories not involved

[sylvain@…]

I don't know why but when I commit a file or a folder on my repository Trac browser says that another higher particular folder tree ('aFiles' at the root of the browser) is involved in the last revision but he is not.

Exemple :

​http://aforge.abstraction.fr/browser

Trac says "aFiles" is involved in revision 92, but he is not and it's confirmed here :

​http://aforge.abstraction.fr/changeset/92

In fact trac browser says that the aFiles folder is always part of the last revision.

I tried to resync trac environement but didn't work.

Regards.

Upgrade to release 0.10.4.
0.10.3 is known to have some flaws with version control management.

This is a feature, the rev/log on a folder will show the last change anywhere below that folder.

AFAICT, that's the point:

[92] shows that /dimdim/trunk/asw has been removed so

• /dimdim/trunk/asw,
• /dimdim/trunk,
• /dimdim,
• / folders

should be tagged (SVN bubble up). No other directory should be tagged with [92]
However, the browser pointed at / shows that /aFiles (and everything below it) is also tagged with [92]

So either there's a weird project setting, or this is definitely a bug.

I don't know if it helps but the trac browser points to a scope into the repository.

Repository : /var/svn Scope : /var/svn/public/aForge

Could you dump the complete changeset log report with the svn tool ?

svn log -v  -r 92 repos_url

I see no reason why /public/aForge/aFiles would have been tagged. Try to upgrade…

Whoops, ignore me then. Scoped repos were one of the things worked on during 0.10, so your original assessment is probably the best starting place. /me hangs head.
