Description Kalev Lember 2013-05-23 14:40:37 UTC
On an up to date rawhide system I get:

$ git svn rebase
'tempfile' can't be called as a method at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Git.pm line 1114.

This is with git-1.8.2.1-4.fc20.x86_64

Comment 1 Evangelos Foutras 2013-05-26 20:54:14 UTC
FYI, this is fixed in Git 1.8.3.

From the release notes:

 * Recent versions of File::Temp (used by "git svn") started blowing
   up when its tempfile sub is called as a class method; updated the
   callsite to call it as a plain vanilla function to fix it.
   (merge eafc2dd hb/git-pm-tempfile later to maint).

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2013-09-16 14:00:03 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 20 development cycle.
Changing version to '20'.

we now have git-1.9.3 in f20, so this should be fixed for some time now.
