[Xen-devel] Missing/wrong tag in xenbits' qemu-upstream-unstable.git ?

[Dario Faggioli <dario.faggioli@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Building Xen via OSSTest in standalone mode is failing for me, with the
following message:

make[2]: Entering directory 
`/home/osstest/build.standalone.build-amd64/xen-unstable/tools'
if test -d git://xenbits.xen.org/staging/qemu-upstream-unstable.git ; then \
                mkdir -p qemu-xen-dir; \
        else \
                export GIT=git; \
                
/home/osstest/build.standalone.build-amd64/xen-unstable/tools/../scripts/git-checkout.sh
 git://xenbits.xen.org/staging/qemu-upstream-unstable.git qemu-xen-4.4.0-rc1 
qemu-xen-dir ; \
        fi
Cloning into 'qemu-xen-dir-remote.tmp'...
fatal: git checkout: updating paths is incompatible with switching branches.
Did you intend to checkout 'qemu-xen-4.4.0-rc1' which can not be resolved as 
commit?
make[2]: Leaving directory 
`/home/osstest/build.standalone.build-amd64/xen-unstable/tools'
make[2]: *** [qemu-xen-dir-find] Error 128
make[1]: Leaving directory 
`/home/osstest/build.standalone.build-amd64/xen-unstable/tools'
make[1]: *** [subdirs-install] Error 2
make: *** [install-tools] Error 2

What I'm doing is:

 $ ./standalone-reset
 $ ./sg-run-job build-amd64

which wipes the build box, so I don't think I have stale files, config,
etc. The commit responsible for having this looking for a
'qemu-xen-4.4.0-rc1' tag is:

$ git show d84a6e2f
commit d84a6e2fa077d07f91ac72c3d8334b75b45fcba2
Author: Ian Jackson <ian.jackson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

    Update QEMU_UPSTREAM_REVISION
    
    Switch to specific tag, for 4.4.0 RC1 release.
    
    Signed-off-by: Ian Jackson <Ian.Jackson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

However, looking here: 
http://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=staging/qemu-upstream-unstable.git;a=tags
there does not seem to be any such tag:

staging/qemu-upstream-unstable.git
6 months ago    qemu-xen-4.3.0  qemu-xen-4.3.0  tag      | commit | shortlog | 
log
8 months ago    qemu-xen-4.3.0-rc1      Xen 4.3.0 RC1   tag      | commit | 
shortlog | log

What am I missing or doing wrong?

Thanks and Regards,
Dario
