Re: meld with svn



Hi (again),

I tried various available versions of helper scripts but all of them fail with the same error code when I invoke meld during the svn merge operation. I would like to see ANY meld user post his working helper script here, so I can narrow down the problem.

Thanks.

Hi,

I am using meld v1.5.0 with sven v1.6.17 on Ubuntu 11.04. I have the following script (meld-svn.sh) in my .subversion/config file:
 


#!/usr/bin/env python
# svn merge-tool python wrapper for meld
import sys
import subprocess

# path to meld ($ which meld)
meld = "/usr/bin/meld"
log = False
f = open('/tmp/svn-merge-meld.log', 'a')

def main():
    if log:
        f.write("call: %r\n" % sys.argv)

    # file paths
    base   = sys.argv[1]
    theirs = sys.argv[2]
    mine   = sys.argv[3]
    merged = sys.argv[4]
    partial = sys.argv[5]

    # the call to meld
    cmd = [meld, mine, base, theirs, merged]

    # Call meld, making sure it exits correctly
    subprocess.check_call(cmd)
 
    try:
        main()
    except Exception as e:
        print "Oh noes, an error: %r" % e
    if log:
        f.write("Error: %r\n" % e)
    sys.exit(-1)


But when I invoke meld during the svn merge, I get an error:

The external merge tool exited with exit code 255

Would appreciate any help to get this working.

Thanks.
