TeamCity Subversion labelling

Question

I'm trying to label a build that is made of multiple checkouts like this:

+Root
+-trunk
+--Folder1
+--Folder2
+-Tags
+--ProjectA
+---Build-123
+----Folder1
+----Folder2

where 123 in Build-123 is the build number.

I'm trying to achieve this by using the following labelling rules:

/Root/trunk/Folder1=>/Root/tags/ProjectA
/Root/trunk/Folder2=>/Root/tags/ProjectA

And this labelling pattern:

BUILD-%system.build.number%

I was hoping that TeamCity would create the BUILD-123 tag and copy the contents of Folder1 and Folder2 into it. However I get the following error:

Failed: Failed to set label 'BUILD-123': Svn labeling failed: Cannot copy 'Root/trunk/Folder1', 'Root/trunk/Folder2' to the same directory 'Root/tags/ProjectA/CO-BUILD-123'

I'm using TeamCity 5 with Subversion 1.6

Answer 1

This seems to be a limitation on SVN side. The only solution I've found is to call SVN directly to create the destination folder first (mkdir) then use svnCopy to copy each source into that folder.

Hello,

Please read TeamCity's docs about it:http://www.jetbrains.net/confluence/display/TCD5/VCS+Labeling#VCSLabeling-Subversion

I suppose you need rules like /Root/trunk=>/Root/Tags/ProjectA or /trunk=>/Tags/ProjectA

depending on where you repository root is.
