Buildbot's SVNPoller requires a recent SVN, but doesn't say so...

Description

Hiya,

Tis is a minor bug that may bite others:

I've been seeing this in the logs while trying to setup Buildbot 0.7.7 on suse 8 w/svn v1.2.1:

2008-05-27 16:41:51+0100 [-] SVNPoller polling 2008-05-27 16:41:51+0100 [-] SVNPoller failed 2008-05-27 16:41:51+0100 [-] _finished : [Failure instance: Traceback (failure with no frames): <type 'exceptions.IOError'>: got stderr: "Subcommand 'info' doesn't accept option '--xml'\nType 'svn help info' for usage.\n"

]

I don't know when the --xml option was added to 'svn info', but apparently it wasn't in v1.2.1 ;-). I've installed a newer svn (1.4.6) and the problem went away.

This could be a simple documentation fix.

  • Status changed from new to closed
  • Resolution set to wontfix

Given svn 1.5 is out now, I think this is probably moot.
