Description John Arthorne

2011-12-22 10:52:49 EST

I created a branch containing a slash character (bug367426/content-assist), and discovered the Orion Git client can't handle it. For example on git status page I get:


http://localhost:8080/gitapi/commit/bug367426/content-assist/file/d/?page=1&pageSize=5

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 405 (HTTP method GET is not supported by this URL)

Using slash in branch names is a common naming convention for topic branches in Git. For example see bug 362363 where they are discussing using the convention "userid/topic" for branch names.

We already have bug for that. The same problem with branches with #.
