bzr-import doesn't notice tags created after the last change in trunk

[Scott Kitterman]

Trying to move from svn to bzr, I did the following:

bzr svn-import -v http://www.openspf.org/svn/software/postfix-policyd-spf-perl

Afterwards, I checked to see that I had all the tags:

postfix-policyd-spf-perl/trunk$ bzr tags
1.00 2
1.01 3
1.02 4
1.03 5
1.05 6
1.06 7
1.07 8
1.08 11
1.08.1 ?
1.990 ?
2.000 ?
2.001 ?
2.002 ?
2.002.allinone ?
2.003 ?
2.004 ?
2.005 ?
2.006 ?

I didn't. 2.007 is the current release.

$ bzr branch -rtag:2.007 http://www.openspf.org/svn/software/postfix-policyd-spf-perl/trunk 2.007
Branched 1 revision(s).
Clearly the tag was visible.

[11:04:42] <jelmer> ScottK: Can you file a bug?
[11:04:59] <jelmer> It looks like the problem is that the tag was added after the latest revision of trunk
[11:05:13] <jelmer> and since the tag is not actually of a revision on trunk it wasn't picked up by svn-import
[11:06:34] <ScottK> jelmer: That fits, since the last thing I did was branch and tag the release.
...
[11:10:16] <jelmer> ScottK: Looks like this is a svn-import specific bug, bzr branch copies the 2.007 tag without problems

Thanks Scott.

FWIW, doing a 'bzr pull' of a branch from its SVN parent doesn't pick up that tag either.

 $ bzr branch svn+ssh://svn.repoze.org/compoze/trunk compoze-trunk
 ,,,
 $ cd compoze-trunk
 $ bzr tags
 0.1 ?
 0.2 13
 0.3 45
 0.3.1 51
 <hack on new stuff>
 $ bzr commit
 $ bzr push

Now make the tag using SVN:

 $ svn cp svn+ssh://<email address hidden>/svn/compoze/{trunk,tags/0.4}

and try to catch up:

 $ bzr pull
 Using saved parent location: svn+ssh://<email address hidden>/svn/compoze/trunk
 No revisions to pull.
 $ bzr tags
 0.1 ?
 0.2 13
 0.3 45
 0.3.1 51

but a fresh branch does see the new tag:

 $ cd ..
 $ bzr branch svn+http://svn.repoze.org/compoze/trunk compoze-trunk2
 ...
 $ cd compoze-trunk2
 $ bzr tags
 0.1 ?
 0.2 13
 0.3 45
 0.3.1 51
 0.4 82
