Package: subversion Version: 1.5.1dfsg1-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Hi,
I found myself needing to track a regression, and since I suck so much at keeping the whole status mentally, I wrote this script that keeps track of it all. It's inspired by git-bisect and the syntax is almost the same (except it doesn't have all the features). A typical user session would be: svn-bisect start svn-bisect bad 4321 # mark 4321 as bad svn-bisect good 1234 # mark 1234 as good # svn-bisect picks a new revision and updates to it # user tests it svn-bisect bad # user determined it is bad # svn-bisect picks a new revision and updates to it etc While upstream wasn't really interested in it, I think it's very useful and would to have it provided in Debian. I would package it myself, but for such a small utility I think it's much better if it's part of the subversion package. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-6-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=ca_AD.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ca_AD.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages subversion depends on: ii libapr1 1.2.12-5 The Apache Portable Runtime Librar ii libc6 2.7-15 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libsasl2-2 2.1.22.dfsg1-23 Cyrus SASL - authentication abstra ii libsvn1 1.5.1dfsg1-1 Shared libraries used by Subversio subversion recommends no packages.
