I have a svn repository, R, that depends on a library, l, in another repository. The goal is that when someone checks out R, they also check out l. We want l to still be in its own repository so that l can be updated without dependence on R. I don't know much about external svn links, but I believe that when depending on a svn-based li...
Has anyone implements Subversion with Siteminder as authentication provider ? If yes, would it be possible to provide an overview of how the whole setup is done ? Since I am using only HTTP authentication, I think it would be easier to integrate with SM, but I am not able to find much help on this on the net. Is there any pitfall with ...

I've renamed my server and am trying to get to the VisualSVN repository via TortoiseSVN. In this post Gordon helped me find the right command - thanks Gordon. Now VisualSVN is asking me for a username and password. I don't recall setting one and if I did I've forgotten it. Any idea how to reset this username / password? ...
I recently was working with a subversion project that checked out code not only from the repository I was working with, but also from a separate repository on a different server. How can I configure my repository to do this? I'm using the subversion client version 1.3.2 on Linux, and I also have access to TortoiseSVN version 1.4.8 (bui...
I cannot seem to compile mod_dontdothat on Windows. Has anybody managed to achieve this? Edit: I've tried compiling the file according to the readme on the site and I've tried to add extra libs to reduce the link errors. Ive got the following installed: Apache 2.2.9 Visual Studio 2008 ActivePerl apxs-win32 from ApacheLounge Subversio...
Given the case I made two independent changes in one file: eg. added a new method and changed another method. I often don't want to commit both changes as one commit, but as two independent commits. On a git repository I would use the Interactive Mode of git-add(1) to split the hunk into smaller ones: git add --patch What's the eas...
What do folks here see as the relative strengths and weaknesses of Git, Mercurial, and Bazaar? In considering each of them with one another and against version control systems like SVN and Perforce, what issues should be considered? In planning a migration from SVN to one of these distributed version control systems, what factors would...
I read git manual, FAQ, Git - SVN crash course, etc. and they all explain this and that, but nowhere can you find a simple instruction like: SVN repository in: svn://myserver/path/to/svn/repos Git repository in: git://myserver/path/to/git/repos git-do-the-magic-svn-import-with-history svn://myserver/path/to/svn/repos git://myserver/pat...
As the local subversion czar i explain to everyone to keep only source code and non-huge text files in the repository, not huge binary data files. Smaller binary files that are parts of tests, maybe. Unfortunately i work with humans! Someone is likely to someday accidentally commit a 800MB binary hulk. This slows down repository o...
Is there a way to call an external script or program from Flash CS3 every time it builds a SWF file? I'd like to add subversion information using subwcrev - the SVN keywords don't work because they only update when the version class file is updated. ...
I've configured (at least I've tried to configure) Lighty to enable the WebDAV plugin when I go to a certain URL. I don't get any errors, so it seems to be working. How, then, do I configure it to serve my subversion repositories (of which I have many)? ...
I have setup a repository using SVN and uploaded projects. There are multiple users working on these projects. But, not everyone is working on all projects and require access. I want to setup permissioning for each of the projects with users. How to achieve this? ...
How do you ensure, that you can checkout the code into Eclipse or NetBeans and work there with it? Edit: If you not checking in ide-related files, you have to reconfigure buildpath, includes and all this stuff, each time you checkout the project. I don't know, if ant (especially an ant buildfile which is created/exported from eclipse) w...
Hi all. I'm on laptop (Ubuntu) with a network that use HTTP proxy (only http connections allowed). When I use svn up for url like 'http://.....' everything is cool (google chrome repository works perfect), but right now I need to svn up from server with 'svn://....' and I see connection refused. I've set proxy configuration in /etc/subve...
Hi, I have some code documentation in MS Powerpoint 2003 that I'm revision-controlling in an SVN repository. I'd like to auto-insert the latest revision number into this document whenever I open it. I am using TortoiseSVN. I've been able to google up a macro or two that might work but wanted advice from experts. :) Thanks! ...
In subclipse, the Team > Update menu option performs an "svn update -r HEAD". I want to run "svn update -r [revision number]" but can't find a menu option which will let me update to anything besides the HEAD revision. ...
I'm running in a windows environment with Trac / SVN and I want commits to the repository to integrate to Trac and close the bugs that were noted in the SVN Comment. I know there's some post commit hooks to do that, but there's not much information about how to do it on windows. Anyone done it successfully? And what were the steps you...
Can anyone point me in the right direction on this. From reading the FAQs at cruisecontrol, it appears that you should develop in the same environment as you produce. But i have Windows XP (which only runs IIS 5.1) on my dev machine and the server is 2003. Thanks ...
What is the best (or as good as possible) general SVN ignore pattern to use? There are a number of different IDE, editor, compiler, plug-in, platform, etc. specific files and some file types that "overlap" (i.e. desirable for some types projects and not for others). There are however, a large number of file types that you just never ...
