How to intelligently change branches in subversion?

I'm out of the office working on a large codebase and the time has come to change branches. I cannot checkout the whole project from scratch because my connection is flaky, the vpn client is even flakier, and together they cannot handle the larger commits. Since the branches are very similar, I should be able to ask subversion to tra...

Subversion: Copy repository users from existing to new project (SASL Database)

Is it possible to copy the sasl (which contains username + pw) database from one repository to another?

SVN: set properties on directories only

In SVN is there any way to set (bugtraq) properties on all directories in a tree without checking out the whole tree? I can't set properties in the repository directly without setting hooks. Even if I could I'm not sure this would help - you can't set recursive properties with Tortoise, and I suspect it wouldn't be straightforward with ...

How to Execute Subversion Post-Commit Trigger Without New Changeset?

I'm trying to troubleshoot a post-commit hook script issue. I need to be able to try different solutions and see if they fix the problem by having Subversion run through its post-commit trigger -- this is critical because the problem lies with the particular user account running the post-commit script and its environment.
