Git Sync (Error: The branch attribute is not correctly formed)

[viceroypenguin]

I have been using the 4.2 development branch and successfully using git sync to sync Plastic and Git.  Up until yesterday, I was using 4.2.28.387 and all was working fine.  Yesterday, I upgraded to 4.2.30.429 and now I am unable to get the git sync to work properly.  

 

The error message simply states "The branch attribute is not correctly formed", with no explanation of which branch or why such a branch might not be correctly formed.  I'd review logs files to see more, but I don't know how to turn on the logs for the client side.  

 

Please advise as to next step for further research?  Thanks, Stuart.

Hi, 

 

In order to enable client side log, check this article ( http://www.plasticscm.com/infocenter/technical-articles/kb-enabling-logging-for-plastic-scm-part-i.aspx ).

 

Is there any way to reproduce the issue? Are you using any git public repository to review the issue?

 

Regards,

Carlos

I have attached the log file generated by Plastic when attempting to sync.  

 

Unfortunately, no, this is not a public repository.  We are using Plastic and Git to develop for internal ERP software, so external hosting of the source code would be dangerous at best.  

 

I have also attached the results of the following query, run on the SQL DB of the repository in question, in the hopes that it will be useful as well.

 

select *
from objectswithattributes oa
inner join branches b on oa.sourceobjectid = b.objectid

 

Thanks,

Stuart

Hi,

 

Can you send me the sync-git attribute of any of the synchronized branches. You can check it in your branch Explorer --> Attributes tab.
