Description tora3 2005-07-17 10:21:13 UTC
Could you please remove conflicts in the local working directory from which 
the automation tool converts updated files in the CVS system into decorated 
files for the Web site?

Problem:
Current top page of ja.ooo, http://ja.openoffice.org/index.html ,
has been contaminated with unexpected marks like  
<<<<<<< driver.c
    exit(nerr == 0 ? EXIT_SUCCESS : EXIT_FAILURE);
=======
    exit(!!nerr);
>>>>>>> 1.6
that points conflicts described in the document of CVS at 
http://www.gnu.org/software/cvs/manual/html_chapter/cvs_7.html#SEC40

What a staff did: 
A staff just did 'cvs commit' as usual. Its log is available at 
http://ja.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=cvs&msgNo=2330

Instructions might be: 
 cd local_working_directory_for_the_tool
 cd ja/www
 mv index.html index.html.backup
 cvs update index.html

Hi, 

i do not want to blame anyone, but this problem probably comes from a 
defect in the tool that automatically produces static web pages from HTML 
source files held in the CVS system. 

It may be racing. (i am not sure how the tool works. This is my guess.)
The tool repeatedly checks out index.html with "cvs update" command. 
Meantime, the tool checks out the same file with the same command right 
after a user checks in index.html with "cvs commit" command through 
ssh ip tunnel. 

There might be a possibility that two "cvs update" commands 
concurrently run against the same file index.html. 

What would happen if racing occurs? One "cvs update" command will attempt 
to get a revision 1.1 of index.html but the file could be updated by 
another "cvs update" command that would get a revision 1.2 of index.html 
during the first "cvs update" command is processing.
In that case, the first one will result in the status of conflict and will 
insert marks of the conflict into the file index.html, which are considered 
to be solved by hand.

Japanese Native Language team has been waiting for prompt actions since 
last week because it happens in the top page of OpenOffice.org web site. 
Your help will be greatly appreciated. 

Best,
Tora
