trac: revision log doesn't always see commits

[davidsarah]

I committed a patch to docs/write_coordination.rst​, with description "docs/write_coordination.rst: fix formatting and add more specific warning about access via sshfs." The revision immediately before this commit was r5236. The trac source browser shows the effect of the patch on the file, but it does not show the commit, either in the revision log (global or per-file) or in the annotated rendering of the file.

I suspect that the trac notification posthook sometimes fails, although there is no indication that it did in the darcs push output:

This might be either a clue or a red herring: the "default remote repository" prompt says "source@tahoe-lafs.org:darcs/tahoe-lafs/trunk", but that is not the repo I was pushing to:

davidsarah@shinier:~/tahoe/1.9alpha$ darcs push
Enter passphrase for key '/home/davidsarah/.ssh/id_rsa': 
Pushing to "davidsarah@dev.allmydata.org:/home/darcs/tahoe/trunk"...

Edit: oh, but that output might be from the invocation of darcs on dev.allmydata.org pushing to tahoe-lafs.org, not the local darcs. So probably a red herring.

This will probably be fixed by our move to git -- #1644.

Replying to zooko:

I think it was.
