I've setup Subversion following Jeff Atwood's article at Coding Horror: Setting up Subversion on Windows. I followed the steps exactly and I have SVNSERVE now running as a service on a Windows 2003 server in our LAN. I've also installed TortoiseSVN and I've been playing with it and trying to learn more about it so I can spread the usag...
I thought this would be simple, but I'm struggling. I want to manage Subversion properties recursively, so in a directory and all files and dirs that it contains. In this particular case I'm trying to delete certain properties recursively, but I'm interested in the generic pattern. Does Subversion provide a tool for this (like svn prop...
I have two feature branches: featureA and featureB. FeatureA is complete, but not merged into trunk because it's untested and we're not ready to test it yet. I'm working on featureB, and have realised that a change implemented in featureA is required for me to continue. What's the best approach? I think I have a couple of options: O...
I have two development trees v3.3, and v3.4 in one SVN repository. They both contain a project called test-harness. However, the v3.4 developers have wrecked the test-harness so we need the test-harness from project in v3.3 to overwrite what we have in v3.4. I want to retain the history of change made to 3.4 test-harness as it has some i...

Everything works well generally; however I'm getting a little frustrated with the TortoiseSVN file overlays (the little icons that show locked or modifie...

I am writing some C# code to perform multiple commits to SVN in one pass, much like the tool svnmucc. So far I've been using SharpSvn to do the rest of the necessary communication with SVN, so I'm thinking I can take advantage of it to accomplish the following: How can I get the credentials (username, password) that are used by SharpSv...

I'm trying to do a sparse checkout of a folder containing externals, but none of the externals are being checked out. This issue seems to indicate that this behavior may be by design, or at least that it isn't clear what the behavior should be. From my point of view, the obvious behavior is that externals are treated just as any other di...
Hi, I have a scenario in my project where I need to share a single file between multiple projects in the same solution. Back in my Visual Source Safe days (Shudder), I'd use the "Share" option to allow me to make changes to this file in any of the locations. Then once it was checked in I could guarantee that the other locations will get...
I understand the importance of using version control and I am trying to learn as much as possible so I can setup SVN for our company web development projects. Right now we all work from a single dev copy and it is messy at best. Many of our users work remotely and the dev server is on a slow internet connection. From what I have rea...
