[Monotone-devel] bug monotone 0.17 (base revision: 337d62e5cbd50c36e2f2c2bda489a98de3a8aeb7)

[Charles Geyer]

Got the following message

oak$ monotone --db=~/rcdd.db diff
monotone: discarding debug log
monotone: fatal: std::logic_error: path_component.cc:53: invariant 
'I(!null_name(*i))' violated

monotone: this is almost certainly a bug in monotone.
monotone: please send this error message, the output of 'monotone 
--full-version',
monotone: and a description of what you were doing to address@hidden

The "monotone diff" operation followed two "monotone drop" operations,
which reported no problems.

delete_file "rcdd/config.status"

delete_file "rcdd/src/Makevars"

delete_dir "rcdd/autom4te.cache"

For what it's worth the monotone drop operations were

oak$ monotone drop rcdd/src/*.o rcdd/src/*.so rcdd/src/Makevars 
rcdd/config.status
monotone: skipping rcdd/src/d2q.o, not currently tracked
monotone: skipping rcdd/src/mycddio_f.o, not currently tracked
monotone: skipping rcdd/src/mycddio.o, not currently tracked
monotone: skipping rcdd/src/nonred.o, not currently tracked
monotone: skipping rcdd/src/q2d.o, not currently tracked
monotone: skipping rcdd/src/q2q.o, not currently tracked
monotone: skipping rcdd/src/qoq.o, not currently tracked
monotone: skipping rcdd/src/scdd_f.o, not currently tracked
monotone: skipping rcdd/src/scdd.o, not currently tracked
monotone: skipping rcdd/src/rcdd.so, not currently tracked
monotone: adding rcdd/src/Makevars to working copy delete set
monotone: adding rcdd/config.status to working copy delete set

oak$ monotone drop rcdd/autom4te.cache
monotone: adding rcdd/autom4te.cache to working copy delete set

These were preceded by an earlier "monotone diff" that gave an error

oak$ monotone --db=~/rcdd.db diff
monotone: misuse: file disappeared but exists in new manifest: 
rcdd/config.status

(and indeed I had simply removed rcdd/config.status without doing a drop)
(I don't know what I'm doing.  Just installed monotone yesterday.)
