[JENKINS-4289] Hudson subversion checkout causes files to appear modified if they have no revision history

Hudson subversion checkout causes files to appear modified if they have no

revision history

I found this issue when experimenting with the Hudson Maven Release Plugin. mvn

release:prepare would always fail indicating that changes were detected in the

working copy of the source. This should never happen since "Use update" is

unchecked for the project - a clean copy should be checked out. Verified this

by disabling "Source Code Management" for the project and using "M2 Extra Steps

Plugin" to execute a command line checkout of the code before the build. No

differences detected after this (but other problems using release plugin as a

side effect of the command line checkout - so not a good workaround).

When investigating, I determined that this was happening with all of my Hudson

builds, but I only detected it due to the maven release failing.

It appears that something is awry during change log generation after checkout if

a file has no revision history but contains an "$Id:$" keyword expansion.

Command line svn status will report there are local changes to any file that is

a new file with no revision history (newly checked in files) if run in the

Hudson workspace for that project.

A svn diff on one of the files results in the following - notice the discrepancy

of the keyword expansion "$Id:$":
