Check that the files involved are not available in the local repository. -2. Force a switch to direct mode to fail, for example, due to a 'exotic' filename -(first bug). -3. Solve that problem. -4. Make another switch to direct mode, but call that command in a subdirectory of -the git-tree. Which will because some annexed file does not exists (second bug). -Note: all subsequent switches to direct mode will now fail, no matter where started. - - -Example: - -mkdir test1 test2 && cd test1 && git init . && git annex init -mkdir umlaut something\ else -date > umlaut/this_has_a_$'\201' -date > something\ else/problem -git annex add . -git commit -m "Init" -cd ../test2/ - -git clone ../test1/ . && git annex init -git annex move --from origin . - -cd ../test1/ -git annex direct #aborts with: commitBuffer: invalid argument (invalid character) -cd umlaut -git mv this_has_a_$'\201' this_has_a_o -git commit -m "fix" -git annex direct # fails with getSymbolicLinkStatus: does not exist (No such file or directory) - -### What is the expected output? What do you see instead? - -Expected is a repository switched to direct mode. -The result is a repository which can't be switched to direct mode. - -### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system? - -git-annex version: 3.20130114 -OS: Arch Linux (3.7.2-2-ck) - -### Please provide any additional information below. - -The second bug seams to be very specific about folder- and/or filename. -I believe that it has something to do with the space in the foldername. - -> Fixed both bugs. You should be able to upgrade git-annex and re-run the command -> and end up with a working direct-mode repository. [[done]] --[[Joey]] |
