Comment 1 Peter Pis 2004-05-05 13:03:38 UTC 
Steps

1. Invoke Include in VCS Group | <Default> on some node with, e.g.
[Current] status for VSS.

In VCS group tab the node (file) shows up, but with (Broken Link). No
VCS command can be invoked.
Comment 2 Jiri Kovalsky 2004-05-05 13:27:00 UTC 
I am not convinced this is true P1 issue because VCS groups are not
that heavily used. According to phone call with Peter I am downgrading
the priority to P2, which is more appropriate.

Anyway, this is _regression_ and does not have _any_ workaround so
please try to fix this functionality ASAP.
Comment 3 Martin Entlicher 2004-05-05 16:07:32 UTC 
Thanks Jiri, I agree that this is not P1 (no dataloss).
It's a regression caused probably by the new buildsystem infrastructure.
Comment 4 Martin Entlicher 2004-05-05 19:26:13 UTC 
This seems to be a problem in deserialization of DataShadow.
DataShadow.checkOriginal() checks whether the filesystem is in
Repository. But there are no filesystems in Repository in promotion D.
Comment 5 Jesse Glick 2004-05-05 22:54:04 UTC 
Probably dupe of issue #42091.

Verified.
