Materialize from git fails if slash in branch name [message #878442] Tue, 29 May 2012 06:06 Go to next message

My attempt to materialize from a git repository fails if an advisor node specifies a branchTagPath with a "/" character in the middle of the branch name (this is NOT with / as the leading character to specify a tag).

Has anyone else encountered this, or alternatively has anyone successfully used an embedded "/" in the branchTagPath for a git repo?

I'll file a bugzilla if no-one reports this as working for them.

This is Buckminster 1.4.0, by the way.

This is a bug. Slashes in the middle of a name should be allowed for Git branch names. A leading slash can never be
allowed though since this signifies a tag rather than a branch. In retrospect, using a slash for this was a bad choice
of character but it's hard to change at this point.

Please file a bugzilla.
