The following block starts at line 48 of pywikibot/version.py: _program_dir = _get_program_dir() if os.path.isdir(os.path.join(_program_dir, '.svn')): (tag, rev, date, hsh) = getversion_svn(_program_dir) else: (tag, rev, date, hsh) = getversion_git(_program_dir) I ran this on a machine where I am still using the SVN mirror and haven't installed git. However, "os.path.join(_program_dir, '.svn')" does not suffice to locate my .svn directory, because I checked out the entire "core" project, including both trunk and branches. The ".svn" directory therefore is in the parent directory above _program_dir, not in _program_dir. This causes my installation to be unable to import pywikibot.
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/113185/ should at least provide a workaround for this (the version will not be detected, but the bot should not crash...)
It does not crash anymore. Thank you :))
Decide to open it again as the version is still not able to be detected although it does not crash anymore.
