"This version of Bitkeeper doesn't support repositories with short keys" #5

Open sskras opened 1 year ago

sskras commented 1 year ago

I cloned the Git repo https://github.com/ricarkol/lmbench2. It seems to have some BitKeeper bits: image

But when I run bk log, it returns me this:

$ bk log

Should I use earlier BitKeeper version? Mine is 7.3.2:

$ bk version
BitKeeper version is bk-7.3.2 for x86-win32
Built by: cyg_server@win7-vm.bitkeeper.com in /build/bk-7.3.2-wscott/src
Built on: Sat Sep 23 2017 13:29:46 FLE Daylight Time (6 years ago)
Running on: x86-win32,Windows_10_Enterprise-64

I run on Windows, the MSYS2 environment.

I expected to recover the bk history from this. Am I doing something wrong or is it a bug?

That is a very old repository. Current versions of bk won't be able to read it. We removed support for short keys in bk-7.2 which was released 10 years ago.

Not sure where to access the current lmbench bk repository.

@wscott, thanks for pointing the specific version. Will try to downgrade.

I just did git clone https://github.com/ricarkol/lmbench2. The BitKeeper dir is inside.
