Hi,
I've been tracking Cogito. This problem occurred with Cogito version
1e2673d606dd39dc44b4eed2204ba349a448bc4d
I have a directory tree with several layers of subdirectories and about 1700
files. I tried to convert it to a git repository with 'cg-init'.
The first thing I noticed was that not all the files and subdirectories had been
added. Doing a cg-status listed many files with '?' in front of them.
I tried adding these files with "cg-add */*", "cg-add */*/*" etc, followed by
"cg-commit", and this seemed at first glance to work. I was able to reduce
the number of files reported by "cg-status". But eventually "cg-add" would
say there were no files left to add, while "cg-status" would still list many
files unadded. It seemed that "cg-add" would only selectively add files.
At that point I blew away the .git directory and gave up on repo-izing that
project for now.
I can reproduce this problem easily. Please let me know if you need any more
information.
Be well,
Zack

I think an ls -l of the repo would be useful... if it's not that big.
If it is, you may have hit the limitation of the length of command line.
If it's so, repeat the commands.
However, if I'd want to add everything to the repo, I'd do:
cg-status | sed "s/? //" | xargs cg-add

It's over 2000 lines, I'm not sure if that's considered big. But it's just
regular files and directories with regular-length names. Here's a sample:

I did that when I first saw the problem, and although it did seem to add a few
dozen files at a time, eventually it refused to add any more files, even though
cg-status reported many files still as '?'.
However, if I'd want to add everything to the repo, I'd do:
cg-status | sed "s/? //" | xargs cg-add
But shouldn't cg-init take care of that for me automatically when I create the
repo?
Be well,
Zack

Dear diary, on Sun, Jun 05, 2005 at 07:56:34PM CEST, I got a letter
where Zack Brown [off-list ref] told me that...
Depending on how I check, I get very different lists. I'll include both in this email.
If I do the 'cg-init' on the full source.cogito directory, then do a 'cg-clone'
into a new source.cogtst directory, here is the result of a comparison:
Hmm. That's very strange, I can't see what could be the problem. If you
try cg-init multiple times, do you always get the same list of files
missed out? Can you spot any error messages while doing cg-init?

I figured it out.
I made a temporary copy of the directory, and kept doing
$ rm -rf .git
$ rm somerandomfileordir
$ cg-init
$ cg-status
It turned out one of my files had a "'" in the name, i.e.:
$ ls
Zack's_file
$
I removed it, and all of a sudden cg-init worked perfectly.
Is that a Cogito bug? I would expect git to handle any filename the filesystem
itself can handle.
Be well,
Zack

The error is the second-to-last line. It partially succeeded originally

The bug is in cg-add, which doesn't use -print0 and -0.

I just tried with fd787bb8d89cdacedc16cfef9dc4feb0cf843def
which is a few patches later than the one you list.
The problem seems to be fixed. Many thanks!
