[Monotone-devel] "almost certainly a bug in monotone" while doing cvs-import

[hendrik]

Well, I tried doing a cvs_import, with the command line

mtn --db=../trywhole.db --branch=cm3.try.2 cvs_import address@hidden cvs/cm3/  
>cvs-monotone-conversion-log4 2>cvs-monotone-conversion-errors4

using mtn version monotone 0.48 (base revision: 
844268c137aaa783aa800a9c16ae61edda80ecea)

on a Debian i386 testing/squeeze system
and got an error log cvs-monotone-conversion-errors4 containing an 
immense number of lines 
mtn: vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
mtn: vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvbvvvvvvvvvvvvv
mtn: vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv

mostly v's, with an occasional b thrown in, ending with

mtn: vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
mtn: vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Do you need the whole dump file?

The cvs-monotone-conversion-log4 merely contains

enter passphrase for key ID address@hidden (599ffffe...): 
enter passphrase for key ID address@hidden (599ffffe...): 
enter passphrase for key ID address@hidden (599ffffe...): 

because I was a little slow realizing that I had to enter a passphrase.
I didn't immediately see this message on stdout because I had redirected it.
