From: Miles Bader <miles <at> gnu.org> To: emacs-pretest-bug <at> gnu.org Subject: bug#2678: 23.0.91; vc-next-action in vc-dir acts strangely when only adds are necessary Date: Sun, 15 Mar 2009 15:06:56 +0900
[Note: I have Dan's patch for fixing whole-directory vc-dir commit in
Git applied, though I don't think it should affect the following, as it
relates to final commit.]
If I have a vc-dir buffer showing a tree where the only entries are new
files (not yet registered with source-control):
VC backend : Git
Working dir: /tmp/zonk/
Branch : master
./
unregistered llll
unregistered oiuoiu
Then hitting "v" on the first line of the buffer acts strangely -- I'd
expect it to simply register all these files with source control, but in
fact, it simply appears to do nothing.
There are actually several behaviors (though it always does nothing in
the end). If this is the first time I've tried to do this, it just
displays a message like "Registering (/tmp/zonk/)... done" [where
"/tmp/zonk2" is the root of the working directory in question] but
doesn't seem to really do it.
If I then try the "v" command again, it will first show the message:
Previous master file has vanished. Make a new one? (y or n)
If I enter "n" it just gives an error and aborts.
If I type "y", then it will either display a "Registering
(/tmp/zonk/)... done" message like the initial time (and again have no
real result), or show a *vc-log* buffer to prompt for an "initial
comment"; in the latter case, when I then hit C-c C-c to continue, the
*vc-log* buffer goes away -- but nothing further appears to happen.
[I'm not sure what causes it to open a *vc-log* buffer or not ... in my
initial tests it did, but when I tried again with emacs -Q, it didn't.]
Anyway, the end result is always the same, no registered files.
To reproduce:
(1) Execute the following shell script to create a test repo in
"/tmp/zonk2":
#!/bin/sh
cd /tmp
rm -rf zonk2
mkdir zonk2
cd zonk2
git init
echo plugh > ppling
git add .
git commit -m'Init' -a
echo Fnord >> newf1
echo Chnevy >> newf2
(2) Start emacs: HOME=/tmp emacs -Q -nw
(3) Start vc-dir on the test repo: C-x v d /tmp/zonk2 RET
(4) Without moving the cursor, try to register the new files: v
(5) It will exhibit one of the faulty behaviors described above,
resulting in no file registration being done.
Thanks,
