Joel seems to think highly of daily builds. For a traditional compiled application I can certainly see his justification, but how does this parallel over to web development -- or does it not? A bit about the project I'm asking for -- There are 2 developers working on a Django (Python) web app. We have 1 svn repository. Each developer...
We're starting a new project in Python with a few proprietary algorithms and sensitive bits of logic that we'd like to keep private. We also will have a few outsiders (select members of the public) working on the code. We cannot grant the outsiders access to the small, private bits of code, but we'd like a public version to work well eno...
Sometimes when a team member adds a file to a subversion repository it doesn't get updated in the other team members working copies (once they request an update). We have to copy the files from the repo browser to the working copy, delete them in the repository and then re-commit them in order for it to work properly. It happens random...
Hi there, I need to create a script that backups a couple of files on a SVN repository during the night, since the files are secure I can commit them without entering a username (is that even possible?) or password. Possible solutions I came up with: - creating a dummy user without password or with a known password but this poses a se...
I work with a team, and we use Subversion. In the morning I want to see exactly what was changed since the last build, is there a way to get a list of files that were modified between changesets? Update Using tortoiseSVN please ...
I wanted to know the frequency at which different shops are backing up their repositories. I have heard some even go to the extent of every 5 minutes to prevent from having to worry about after a restore, going through everyone's local Projects to find and merge in any uncommitted changes that are missing after a restore. How big is y...
I'm using CC.Net 1.4.4.83 to build my project. I also have some scheduled tasks that independently run builds on the same box using the same working copy. Due some hard-coded paths, we can't use a separate working copy for both build processes. I noticed that sometimes both the scheduled tasks and CC.NET would attempt some sort of SVN...
Hi all, Summary: I'm having some svn trouble, and after "debugging" it for a while, I'm not sure where to go from here. I figure someone else might have run into this problem before. The problem appears to be that I'm behind a transparent proxy my ISP uses, but this doesn't explain all the facts. Details: I'm having trouble connecting ...
I got latest from a restored repository. Took only the files from my collegue's PC, copy/replaced some files (no not svn files, I left those in tact) to that repository restore that I checked out locally. Tried to check back in and appeared to go through. But I updated then looked at history and they are not there. Why? ...
Using the SVN task from tigris I can't seem to find a way to just commit one file. Is there any way to do this without first having to checkout the folder in SVN? ...
Does anyone store their Repositories folder on a network drive that's backed up? Is there any issues anyone's had with that as opposed to lets say keeping it stored on the host server that is running Subversion's C drive? we essentially want to put our repo on another network drive (different than the server running Visual SVN Server) ...
I have a TortoiseSVN repository created at ip=ab.cde.fgh.123. I am trying to browse that repository from ip=ab.cde.fgh.124. I have given "svn://ab.cde.fgh.123/repo" in the address bar for repository from the other machine. But I am unable to browse the repo. Please help me. Thanks in advance. ...
Every coworker works on a copy of the same VPC and uses Tortoise to commit files. Some questions have arisen due the fact all VPC's have the same host-name and commit to the same repository. Questions about whether this will or not lead to corruption or conflicts of any sort in the repository. I initially believed that this would not po...
Where can I find a good introduction to using the subversion python bindings? I found one section in the svnbook that talks about it; and some basic examples from 1.3. Is there something a bit more thorough and up-to-date? ...
What's the best way to handle the Rails database.yml if multiple people are working on the project and database locations are different (the socket in particular). ...
I have a python project under SVN, and I'm wanting to display the version number when it is run. Is there any way of doing this (such as automatically running a short script on commit which could update a version file, or querying an SVN repository in Python?) ...
Scenario: I'm using svn:externals to grab Microsoft.Practices.ServiceLocation from CodePlex. However, referencing the csproj-file in my own project causes an upgrade from 2005 to 2008. This makes my copy of the project file different from the base copy, and I am unable to update the project from subversion. An update of ...\deps\Micro...
Some friends of mine and I were talking recently about version control, and how they were using VSS at their jobs, and were probably going to be moving off of that soon. One of them said that his company will likely be going with Team Foundation Server. Eventually, the conversation did get around to talking about some of the open sourc...
I'm trying to add a linux kernel to a svn tree, which has a .git subdirectory - which I don't want to add. Can anyone explain this behaviour - why does it NOT ignore the .git direcotry ? test2$ mkdir -p a/.git/blah test2$ ls a test2$ svn propset svn:ignore .git . property 'svn:ignore' set on '.' test2$ svn propset -R svn:ignore .git . ...
I want to start putting all of my non-code personal files (i.e., word docs, excel spreadsheets, everything but media, etc.) under version control. The main reasons I want to do this is so that I can scan for changes and have some some control before I check in the files to the repository. TortoiseSVN is perfect for this, however I'm lo...
