Description
I was trying:
source:../show?rev=vc_port
But the ? was transformed %3F
So maybe there is another on how I can specify a branch with the source referencing?
It got transformed so try this
source : "../show?rev=vc_port"
- Status changed from New to Closed
- Resolution set to Invalid
- Status changed from Closed to Reopened
Sorry I wasn't clear enough, but with my git repository it doesn't work the syntax you are suggesting.
For example in my case I would be able to do
source:/branches/vc_port/README.txt
It opens the link but I get the following error:
404
The entry or revision was not found in the repository.
Back
I found the solution to link to a file in a specific branch of the linked git repository:
source:"../revisions/branch_name/entry/path/to/the/file"
Simply replace branch_name by the name of the specific branch and replace the path of the file at the end.
You
must put the quotes around the path, otherwise the .. will not be parsed correctly.
