#5514 Code browser does not show latest SVN revision
Originally created by: kambi
This issue affect at least 2 of my projects using SVN repository:
-
Project castle-engine, go to https://sourceforge.net/p/castle-engine/code/ , and you can see that it redirects to https://sourceforge.net/p/castle-engine/code/12030/tree/ . And indeed 12030 is the last revision number. However, the directories below show only a very very old commit:
~~~~
branches 2007-08-01 kambi [r1874] * DirectionInsideFrustum...
tags 2007-07-21 kambi [r1820] * Tagging 1.0.0...
trunk 2007-08-05 kambi [r1897] + make install command
~~~~
So it seems like the last visible commit is r1897 done 5 years ago. This is very bad for me, it makes code browser broken and it makes an impression like the project was inactive for 5 years....
- Another, unrelated (but also maintained by me) project is pasdoc. Code browser https://sourceforge.net/p/pasdoc/code/ redirects to https://sourceforge.net/p/pasdoc/code/1328/tree/ , but instead of actually showing the latest 1328 --- it shows earler 1308 revision.
I cleared the browser caches and observed it on various browsers, both logged-in to SourceForge and anyonymous. So it doesn't seem to be an issue with some revision remaining "sticky" in my cookies.
This was also mentioned in [#5238].

I forgot to mention that the repositories work fine when accessed, e.g. this output is correct:
So it doesn't seem like a problem of SVN repository, only the code browser shows something wrong.
Looks like a duplicate of [#4935] to me. Do you concur?

Yes, it seems [#4935] observes the same behavior.
I can also definitely confirm that the information changes (seemingly) randomly, that is: even without any commits to the repository, the code browser seems to switch from time to time to showing other revision. For example, my https://sourceforge.net/p/castle-engine/code/ shows now:
So now the last commit shown in 7081. 3 days ago, when submitting this bugreport, it was showing 1897. The real latest commit is still 12030, so it's still wrong. No commits were made to the repository during that time.
So I'm not sure whether the comment (made in [#4935]) that "[#4691] is probably the root cause of this." is right. In my case, information changes randomly, regardless of repository contents. And also, this is about SVN repository, where the ordering of commits is after all trivial (unlike git and such).
I hope this helps you guys to solve the problem :) And BTW, happy new year and thousand thanks for all the hard work you do at SourceForge!
