I have two branches for different clients which have the modifications onl...
We have a 3.5 Gb SVN repository recently migrated from a 6 Gb one. We keep all our in-house made software and there a lot of small shared components. We also do a lot of tagging. Projects keep a copy of it's binary dependencies, mostly libs. We cannot move to GIT right now. The first impression on our developers was that Subversion is v...
I'm working with an SVN setup with a lot of repositories. I'm trying to consolidate some by moving the trunk of one into the branch of another (the old ones are themed versions of the new one, minus some code fixes I'll be applying later, so it makes sense to me). Short version, I want to go from RepositoryA/trunk to RepositoryB/branches...

We (small team) currently have our Visual Studio projects on a network drive (no version control). I would like us to start using version control, so I thought I'd install Subversion and put all the projects into an svn repository. Now the question is: Where should we put our working copies? Option A: On the local hard drive. Advantag...
I am using Tortoise SVN. I had checked in a crapload of code recently (one commit). In a 3 hour meeting they decided to scrap a bunch of my code and that feature. My boss wants me to put Subversion back in place with the old code for that area of the application. I'd say there were about 3-4 files affected. Meaing in that last commi...
Lets say I commited a new .cs file. Boss says roll it back but I don't want to loose that file locally. If I to a revert back to revision on that file in the revision that I checked this file in at, will it delete it from my local copy? what happens exactly? ...
I have been working on a branch for a while, and deleted a directory (folder) that I do not need. Next, I tried to merge from the trunk to get any changes. In the process of this merge, the SVN complains about tree conflicts. As a result, when I tried to commit the changes to my branch, SVN did not allow me to do it. It seems that the di...
Well this file was put in the repo by mistake and was deleted and added to ignore list. However, because it once existed, my repo is now > 4GB in size and some SVN functions take years to complete. I would appreciate any help and tips. (I'm on XP if it matters) ...
I have a folder where I keep checked-out version from Aptana Subversive SVN plugin. I have another folder where the checked-out copy from Eclipse resides. Both, Aptana & Eclipse, are using the same repository. Though the repository is the same, but I am using two different working folders. Sometimes I use Eclipse to work with the same se...
How can I copy a folder from one existing Subversion repository to another without preserving history, and in such a way that preserves relevant svn properties (e.g. preserve svn:ignore, svn:eol-style but ignore svn:mergeinfo). To use svn export followed by svn import would not preserve svn properties, so this is not good. We are curre...

I am running a subversion server with access via http using webdav. I have noticed that when I access the repository with a browser, sometimes the pdf files in the repository show up as plain text (as if you viewed the pdf with a text editor like emacs, vim, or notepad) instead of being downloaded, or opened with some pdf reader. If you ...
How can I test if a file is identical in all branches that it exists in? Even pseudocode to build a script would be helpful. Thanks. EDIT: I had to perform this operation on about 900 files across 5 branches. Long story. It turns out the easiest thing to do was to just check everything out, and use standard command line tools to do the...
I hope someone can help here, we're having an incredibly annoying time with Visual Studio 2008 and Visual SourceSafe 8. Basically, when anyone involved with the Web Application Project attempts to add a new "item" (eg. a CSS file) they get the following error: An error or user cancellation occurred during checkout. Some files may no...
Tricky question: I need the following to happen: 1) Before you click commit, tortoisesvn should insert a legal notice comment to the code files being commited. I am talking about client side event ONLY. 2) Svn:keywords are not going to work because those keywords need to be in the file already. May be there is a way to write plugin fo...

When creating a new project in ProjectLocker, by default it makes the project private, and you have to explicitly add people to the project. What if you simply want to make the project public. Seems like you should be able to do it, but the UI is unclear. ...
