[Python-Dev] Trying to understand svn history (was: Buildbots have trouble checking out the repository due to recent changes.) (original) (raw)

From what I can see of the changes, you simply added a Lib/lib-old/Queue.py in that revision - Lib/queue.py was already there. But your description "Moved..." implies you did something slightly different (and the text of your original message on this thread suggests that you might have done a svn copy Lib/queue.py Lib/lib-old/Queue.py followed by an edit).

In this case, adding -v helps:

Changed paths: D /python/trunk/Lib/Queue.py A /python/trunk/Lib/lib-old/Queue.py (from /python/trunk/Lib/Queue.py:63101)

I know it's a while ago but can you recall exactly what you did? Or can some svn guru tell me how to get svn to tell me exactly what operations it believes went on?

See above. If you want to know whether it was a mere move, or whether something was changed as well, try

svn diff svn+ssh://pythondev@svn.python.org/python/trunk/Lib/lib-old/Queue.py@63104 svn+ssh://pythondev@svn.python.org/python/trunk/Lib/Queue.py@63103

which shows no differences. In fact, Queue.py got its current contents in r63077, the same version where queue.py was copied from Queue.py.

HTH, Martin
