How do I take a range of commits in my SVN repository and combine them? For example, revisions 4-10 exist in the repository and I want to combine them into a new revision 4 that contains all the changes in the previous 4-10. I don't want to break any existing tags, which were created via svn copy. This is because the repository was pr...

SVN is running on a Windows Server environment We are running SVN Server version: svnadmin, version 1.4.4 (r25188) compiled Jun 8 2007, 18:49:42 ...
What recommendations do you have for a Subversion client that supports Microsofts standard SCC API? So far, I've found two possibilities: TortoiseSVN SCC. Seems neither mature, active nor supported (no release since Jan 2005) SVN Plugin from PushOK. Commercial, with pricing hidden behind a login page. Neither of these seem particula...
Right now, whenever Rails is updated and I upgrade the frozen version in my application (by installing the new gem and refreezing it), in order to commit it into my repository, I need to do two steps: first delete the old version, and second add the new version. This seems to be because when the new version is frozen, the old version (al...
If I'm using svnmerge to track changes for a branch and I want to rename the branch (by doing an svn mv), will this cause any problems with the way the changes are tracked? Is this a safe thing to do? ...
At the company I work for we use subversion and TortoiseSVN to manage our source code. Each project is branched off the trunk. When we need to integrate the different projects for a release, we create a release branch that contains the code that will be integrated, tested, and deployed to production. Typically we only have one release br...
Hi, In a svn working directory, I can make some changes in files in the working directory remove all the changes I made by 'rm all the source files in that directory, but keep my .svn directory) retrieve what the trunk supposed to by using 'svn update' and svn will download all the source back to my working directory. Is there an eq...
I have a SVN repo on my server which contains a working version of our prototype. Currently we have the repo checked out, and are using our local dev environment (LAMP) to access the proto, make changes and then commit it. What I want to know is how to maintain a live working version of the repo in the LAMP stack, so that when we make c...
I have a main line of development and a branch. On the main line, a new directory has been added to SVN, with some files in it. It also contains directories called bin and obj, which are in my global ignore pattern in TortoiseSVN. Whenever I try to do a Switch on my working copy from the trunk to the branch, I get the error "Left loca...
I watched the YouTube presentation Tech Talk: Linus Torvalds on git a few weeks ago and one remark seems to be stuck in my mind. In this presentation (around minute 33) Linus says something along the line of "Some people clone a SVN repository, do merging (=headache in SVN) and then push the result back to SVN.". The thought that I ha...
I am in the processes of setting up a 4 to 6 person development team (3 countries). Basically what I need is a subversion scm to integrate with visual studio and a project management (tasks, wiki etc) web tool. Are there any pros and cons about using "FogBuz + Beanstalk" OR just use "Assembla" for my source code and project management?...
I understand the basic concept of a branch and merge. All of the explanations I've found talk about branching your entire trunk to create a branch project and working on it and then merging it back. Is it possible to branch a subset of a project? I think an example will help me explain best what I want to do. Suppose I have an applicati...
In tortoise svn, is it possible to merge two revisions within the trunk (not two branches)? ![alt text][1] ...
In my repository, I store several external libraries. When a new version of a library is available, I do the following tasks to update it in my repository: checkout my old version of the library recursively remove everything but .svn directories copy the new version of the library svn status to see the changes add new files and directo...
I know there is TortoiseCVS, but I'm wondering if there is an easy way of sucking down source code in a CVS repository, just using SVN tools (without having to install CVS tools). Since SVN seems to have taken the preferred spot in OSS, I have to believe somebody has written a tool that will map CVS databases to SVN repositories. EDIT ...
I use Tortoise client to checkout/commit my changes to SVN. But I found this little difficult because I'm not able to find List of all files that are changed in my local copy. Is there any short cut or something that I overlooked? I'm new to SVN. FYI. ...
Which would be a more appropriate repository to host a small, XCode, Objective-C based project? Both appear to offer SVN, which XCode likes. The documentation and issue tracking systems would surely accommodate a small project. A Google search surfaces a number of opinions preferring Google Code, but the motivations seem to be somewhat 2...
I am working on a project in a subversion repository with a strict check-in policy which includes: Every commit to the trunk has to be reviewed by another developer and this must be mentioned in the commit message. While working with git-svn I am making many incremental git check-ins that aren't reviewed. Their git commit messages refle...
Let's say I have a text file to commit using Subversion. Prior to commit, a pop-up window will appear consisting of the files to commit and a message box wherein I may place my comments regarding the changes for said file. First question, I'd like to verify if it is possible to place the message that I placed at the message box of the p...
