Description
I have a local change to a file that I want to show up when I do svn
status -u, but it doesn't, if the directory in which the file is found happens
to be a symlink:
(~/module) # svn status ebi/Makefile.pkg-paths
M ebi/Makefile.pkg-paths
(~/module) # svn status -u ebi/Makefile.pkg-paths
Status against revision: 106549
Interestingly enough, this only occurs if 'ebi' in the example above is
a symlink:
(~/module) # ls -l ebi
lrwxrwxrwx 1 rosec devel 15 Oct 4 09:37 ebi -> ../ebi.head/ebi
If I do the same commands from a directory where that is not a symlink:
(~/module) # cd ../ebi.head
(~/ebi.head) # ls -ld ebi
drwxrwxr-x 12 rosec rosec 4096 Mar 1 15:31 ebi
(~/ebi.head) # svn status ebi/Makefile.pkg-paths
M ebi/Makefile.pkg-paths
(~/ebi.head) # svn status -u ebi/Makefile.pkg-paths
M 106546 ebi/Makefile.pkg-paths
Status against revision: 106549
(~/ebi.head) # svn --version
