171,converting darcs' darcs to git results in a corrupted repo,vmiklos,lele,"Hi,

Here is the config I used:

$ cat config
{{{
[DEFAULT]
encoding-errors-policy = replace

[sandbox]
source = darcs:sandbox
target = git:sandbox

[darcs:sandbox]
subdir = darcs
repository = /path/to/sandbox

[git:sandbox]
subdir = git
repository = /path/to/sandbox.git
}}}

Where sandbox is http://code.haskell.org/darcs/big-zoo/darcs-repo-2008-10-31.tar.bz2

I started the conversion in non-verbose mode, it converted 6422 of 6548 changesets and exited without any error. As I guessed, the result does not match the original repo.

Given that the repo is public, I hope you can reproduce the error.

Sadly I'm not sure where the error occures, the conversion took 373 minutes on my machine.

$ darcs --version
2.1.2 (+ 266 patches)

$ git --version
git version 1.6.0.1

I am using darcs from the darcs repo (and not the latest release) as I had other problems and the suggested fix on the mailing list was to use the version from the repo.

If I missed any important info, please let me know.

Thanks.",defect,new,major,VersionOne,tailor,0.9,,,
