git-svn: ignore-paths not enough (not ignoring refs?)

git-svn: ignore-paths not enough (not ignoring refs?)

[Piotr Krukowiecki]

Hi,

I'm using --ignore-paths options but some paths which should be
ignored (they math the regexp) are not ignored. I suspect this is
because of http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/145398

It seems the patch from that url was never accepted to git. It does
not apply anymore too. Is it possible to update the patch? From the
discussion the patch looked ok (with exception to git-svn dying if a
parent ref didn't exist :) )


Here's my git-svn clone log, with some print lines added to is_path_ignored():

$ git svn clone -s --no-follow-parent  --ignore-paths='$REGEXP -r 1230:1240 $URL
[...]
is_path_ignored: 'xtest/tags/rel1'  # this matches the regexp and
should be ignored
is_path_ignored: 'xtest/tags/rel1/common' # more paths which should be
ignored follow
[...]
r1237 = c660a7e6ad81cafa0a64a7ec85a3e23f0c02bc09
(refs/remotes/tags/rel1) # but it is not!

# I can see the tag:
$ git branch -a
  remotes/tags/rel1

# There are no changes in this change:
$ git show -p c660a7e6ad81cafa0a64a7ec85a3e23f0c02bc09
[...]
    git-svn-id: $URL/rel1@1237 3e523551-a86b-4873-bcb6-76fcd93a4c5c

# Under svn the r1237 is following:
$ svn log -r 1237 -v $URL
------------------------------------------------------------------------
r1237 | ...
Changed paths:
   A /xtest/tags/rel1/common (from /xtest/branches/xtest44/common:1235)

# The xtest/branches/xtest44/common does not match the ignore-paths
and is not ignored.

I've resent my patch.  I've been using it with v1.7.4.1.
