trac-bzr plugin does not work with trac 0.12multirepos (multirepos branch)

[Jean-Luc Geering]

Installed latest trac-bzr plugin into latest trac from 0.12 multirepos branch.
Could add a repository with type 'bzr' in admin console, but cannot browse it.

bzr://bzr.pkgcore.org/ferringb/trac-bzr/ may be of interest... hacked together support for multirepos awhile back, although I wound up having to tear out a fair amount of trac-bzr internally in the process.

[Martin von Gagern (gagern)]

I'll mark this as a whishlist item for now, as support for Trac 0.12 would be nice to have, but isn't our main aim. If someone has a branch that could be merged with current trac-bzr trunk to address this issue, request a merge and I'll have a look. Until then, things will have to wait until either Trac 0.12 actually gets released, or I find enough spare time to look at this.

[Pieter Scholtz (pieterscholtz)]

Apparently a first beta version of Trac 0.12 is coming soon: http://trac.edgewall.org/milestone/0.12, so perhaps it's good time to bump the priority of this issue. Sadly, the trac-bzr multirepos branch on here does not work with later revisions of Trac SVN. Trac 0.12 with multiple Bzr repositories would be really great.

[Martin von Gagern (gagern)]

Will try to have a look one of these days, but no promises.

Feel free to report individual issues as you find them, tagged with trac-0.12, and preferrably of course with a branch fixing them.

[Martin von Gagern (gagern)]

lp:~trac-bzr-team/trac-bzr/trac-0.12 should at least ensure that what used to work so far will continue to work with trac 0.12, i.e. you can have a single bzr style "repository" which contains multiple branches managed by the trac-bzr plugin. Please give it a try.

I haven't tested the multi-repo support at all so far, but I assume that might require some more work. If we need https://blueprints.launchpad.net/trac-bzr/+spec/multirepo to make this work, it will have to wait for trac-bzr 0.4.

[Pieter Scholtz (pieterscholtz)]

Thanks Martin! I installed the trac-0.12 branch of trac-bzr and it seems to be working perfectly now. I added two branches from two different bzr repositories, so it seems like multiple repositories are working. Will report issues if I find them. Thanks again for the good work.

I just installed the trac-0.12 branch (r109). I have Trac 0.12 and a single-repository setup (although I get the same results when I change it to multi-repository). Mostly it works fine, but resynchronization fails:

$ trac-admin . repository resync '*'
Resyncing repository history for (default)...
TypeError: sync() got an unexpected keyword argument 'clean'

Not sure where to go from here (I don't get a traceback) but I'm happy to help troubleshoot.

[Martin von Gagern (gagern)]

Andrew, does r110 solve the issue for you?

[Andrew Schulman (andrex)]

Yup, it does:

$ trac-admin . repository resync '*'
Resyncing repository history for (default)...
0 revisions cached.
Done.

Thanks!

There is one thing I don't get, though. In the repository browser, at the bottom of each page is a button that says "View changes...", with a hint of "Select revs and paths for Diff". When I click on this button, I always end up at "Error: no such changeset ... No changeset in the repository" Is this a known problem?

Wasn't known to me up until now. Affects trac 0.11 as well. Please file
a separate report for this. Thanks.

[Andrew Schulman (andrex)]

Done: #604085.

[Martin von Gagern (gagern)]

trac-bzr 0.4.0 does support Trac 0.12. Please open new items if things don't work as expected, or if you see urgent need to treat each bzr branch under some root as a distinct repository and want to list all of these automatically.
