Assertion Failed when importing svn into Git

Assertion Failed when importing svn into Git

[4jxDQ6FQee2H]

Hi,


I'm trying to import my SVN repository into GIT and its throwing an
Assertion Failed error message in text_delta.c  Can someone help me?

The assertion failed error occurs when running 'svn diff -r 288:289'
which contains only one change - a change made to a binary file. That
binary file is the Eclipse dataModel file, both revs (288, 289) have
the file marked as application/octet-stream using the svn:mime-type
property


subversion - 1.5.4
git        - 1.6.0.6

The SVN repository was started using 1.4.6, if that matters

Here's the exact error message:

-------
$ svn diff -r 288:289
svn: subversion/libsvn_delta/text_delta.c:609: apply_window: Assertion
`window->sview_len == 0 || (window->sview_offset >= ab->sbuf_offset &&
(window->sview_offset + window->sview_len >= ab->sbuf_offset +
ab->sbuf_len))' failed.
Aborted
-------


Thanks!

Hi,

For more testing, I setup a brand new SVN repository (using v1.5.4).

In the old SVN Repo, I checked out the problematic file
(.cache/.dataModel) from rev 288 and rev 289.


In the new SVN Repo, I added the problematic file (from rev 288) and
committed, which became Rev 4.

Then I copied the problematic file (rev rev 289) ontop of that file and
commited, which became Rev 5.

I'm successfully able to do a 'svn diff -r 4:5'.

Does this imply that I have corruption in my old SVN Repository?

Or is something being lost when checking out the file from Rev 289 that
does break SVN in my test?

Hi,

I have resolved this issue.

There was either corruption in the repository or an incompatibility
between the 1.4.6 and the 1.5.4 formats.

A dump / reload of the repository has resolved the issue.

I can run 'svn diff -r 288:289' successfully on the new repository.

Thanks!
