utils: Raise ValueError when external definition could not be parsed
ClosedPublic

Authored by anlambert on Dec 7 2022, 5:38 PM.

Details

Summary

Such case can happen when an external definition is malformed.

Previously, the parsed malformed external was added to the directory state
with an empty external URL which could lead to unexpected side effects like
removing all previously exported valid externals.

Depends on D8941

    replay: Simplify FileEditor implementation
    
    Instead of maintaining file state based on svn properties across revisions
    replay and trying to reconstruct the same file as with a svn export operation
    after applying text deltas, prefer to simply export the file from the currently
    processed revision when closing the associated file editor.
    
    This greatly simplify the replay module implementation while approximatively
    keeping the same performance as before.
    
    Also add a test that would fail without these changes.

    replay: Do not ignore externals in copyfrom operations
    
    When copying a directory from an ancestor revision, do not ignore
    externals as properties are also copied by subversion so external
    paths must also be exported.

See https://jenkins.softwareheritage.org/job/DLDSVN/job/tests-on-diff/363/ for more details.
