#934: Cannot check out ET release ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Reporter: eschnett | Owner: eric9 Type: defect | Status: new Priority: blocker | Milestone: Component: GetComponents | Version: Keywords: | ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ When I try to check out the release branch of the ET, GetComponents fails for all git repositories, and only for these. It appears that these repositories are checked out, but are on their master branch, and GetComponents cannot switch to the release branch. These repositories are then renamed, e.g. to "CRL.branch.failed".
The error messages (taken from crl.log) are: {{{ May 29 11:05:08 2012: Could not checkout EinsteinExact/doc, unable to switch to branch ET_2012_05. Any existing symlinks to EinsteinExact/doc will be broken May 29 11:08:05 2012: Could not checkout KrancNumericalTools/GenericFD, unable to switch to branch ET_2012_05.

This is on Mac OSX. I am using git version 1.7.10.2. I obtain GetComponents via {{{ wget --no-check-certificate https://github.com/gridaphobe/CRL/raw/ET_2012_05/GetComponents }}} and run it as {{{ ./GetComponents -a http://svn.einsteintoolkit.org/manifest/branches/ET_2012_05/einsteintoolkit.... }}}

Comment (by anonymous):
Just noting that everything works with older versions of git, e.g. 'my' 1.7.2.5. Something must have changed in git.

Comment (by eschnett):
A work-around is to add the option "--noshallow" to GetComponents.
This should be made the default, and backported to the release branch.
I updated the wiki. If the default is changed, the wiki should be updated again.

Has the default been changed?

the default was changed to noshallow on June 25th (by me).

Replying to [comment:6 eschnett]:
I updated the wiki.
I reverted the wiki. Sorry, the change of default of GetComponents happened only in trunk but not in Lovelace. If we want to change the new user tutorial we'd have to apply the fix (defaults for anonymous and noshallow to Localace).

Comment (by eschnett):
I think we should at least apply the noshallow fix to Lovelace.

Fine with me. All patches (6160341f02efce4b9c1e50b101e7684605a1c84a, ebac0521d0ffe240f86f17bd1febb792cd348784 and 68cf0a5b0483d771390aab0f5e110d2be8d18a8d which is a bugfix on shallow) apply cleanly on top of Lovelace.
Since this is the released version, is there a special procedure? The patches were reviewed ok for master already.
We could also add "-p" to the download instructions on the wiki. Mostly this is useful since it hides latency in slow svn servers (yes this means [at least] LSU servers :-) ) when accessed from eg. California or Europe.

Comment (by knarf):
I agree that we should apply the patch also to lovelace, please do so. As to adding -p: I use it all the time and it seems to work, so I second that as well.

Applied as CRL hashes 49a75dfd88106c5539032f3625c50b5e61113204 "make anonymous checkout the default", a7e61d7b17bcfa4e295b2cd8d420bb81d6239262 "make full clone the default" and 514d56dc7f0a3db87215d673ed161cdff5161f29 "Declare $shallow". I updated the wiki and website to remove -a --noshallow and to add --parallel.
