[Be-devel] OS X git dirname/path bug

[Juozas Gaigalas]

running
	be set-root /Users/me/code/project
  will produce a "" path not found error.

like this:
-----------------
   File "/usr/local/bin/be", line 55, in <module>
     sys.exit(execute(sys.argv[1], sys.argv[2:]))
   File "/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/libbe/cmdutil.py", line  
105, in execute
     return get_command(cmd).execute([a.decode(encoding) for a in args])
   File "/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/becommands/set_root.py",  
line 57, in execute
     bugdir.create_bug_dir(args[0], dir_rcs)
   File "/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/libbe/bugdir.py", line 110,  
in create_bug_dir
     set_version(root, rcs)
   File "/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/libbe/bugdir.py", line 70,  
in set_version
     rcs.set_file_contents(os.path.join(path, "version"),  
TREE_VERSION_STRING)
   File "/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/libbe/git.py", line 52, in  
set_file_contents
     add_id(path)
   File "/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/libbe/git.py", line 39, in  
add_id
     invoke_client("add", filename, directory=git_repo_for_path('.'))
   File "/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/libbe/git.py", line 33, in  
invoke_client
     status,output,error = invoke(cl_args, expect, cwd=directory)
   File "/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/libbe/rcs.py", line 65, in  
invoke
     q = Popen(args, stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE, cwd=cwd)
   File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/ 
python2.5/subprocess.py", line 593, in __init__
     errread, errwrite)
   File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/ 
python2.5/subprocess.py", line 1079, in _execute_child
     raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: ' '
---------------------

doing:
	cd /Users/me/code/project
	be set-root .
produces a similar error (I can post it if people need it)

I was able to get be to work by modifying git.py like this:

def git_repo_for_path(path):
      """Find the root of the deepest repository containing path."""
      # Assume that nothing funny is going on; in particular, that we  
aren't
      # dealing with a bare repo.
      dirname = os.path.dirname(git_dir_for_path(path))
+    if dirname != "":
+      return dirname
+    else:
+      return "."


I hope this is helpful
