I have \trunk\root\ which contains folders ProjectA, ProjectB etc. I have creates branch of root -> \branches\task\root\ Now I've made considerable changes to the projects in task including ProjectB. However \trunk\root\ProjectB has also moved on to a point that makes all the changes in task\Root\ProjectB redundant. I would like to c...
Hi, I recently installed Visual SVN Server. I Put Repository on D:\Repositories and added some projects to the Repository via. Visual Studio 2008. D:\Repositories\reponame seems to be a little bit to small in size when comparing to my projects altogether. I need to make sure where the projects are stored in order to make a backup whe...
If you always sync a feature branch before you merge it back, why do you really have to use the --reintegrate option? The Subversion book says: When merging your branch back to the trunk, however, the underlying mathematics is quite different. Your feature branch is now a mishmosh of both duplicated trunk changes and private branch ...
We recently started using SVN Keywords to automatically append the current revision number to all our <script src="..."> includes (so it looks like this: <script language="javascript" src="some/javascript.js?v=$Revision: 1234 $"> </script>). This way each time we push a new copy of the code to production, user caches won't cause users t...
At regular intervals, I receive a new release of a vendor's software, delivered as source code in a compressed package, and I don't have access to the vendor's source code repository. We make changes to the vendor's source code between their releases. Our changes do not get incorporated into their releases, but I need to merge changes ...
Hello, I am new to Linux and I am trying to setup eclipse with subclipse plugin to access my svn repository which is hosted on a Windows server. Everything is installed fine. When I try to create a new repository location, I am not sure how to identify the location in sublipse. I have successfully mounted the windows share and I can b...
Consider software spread in two separate repositories, Pub and Priv. Pub repository is public. Priv is closed. An continuous integration server builds both Pub and Priv when either side changes. It then creates downloadable binaries from Priv that are available to users of Pub. Those binaries are labeled internally and on the file name w...
Dear All, I need to take the backup of one folder of my SVN repository. for this i have tried with svndump and svndumpfilter commands but of no use. Can any one pls. explain how to do this with an example. Thanks Mohan ...
Is there a way to search for a file in a subversion repository? Something similar to Unix' find command, with which I can find the location of a file in a repository. I know there is svn list, but this gives me a list of all the files in a directory. I want to find the directory a file is in. ...
Hi, I use Eclipse Subversion client to checkout my project from a svn repository. My coworkers has committed 2 new files which i can see on the svn remote repository but I can't get them when i update from the head. The 2 files are in the trunk, like me. Someone have an idea ? ...
Take folder files, inside an SVN working copy, running in Linux. The folder was set to be ignored, with the commands: svn propset svn:ignore * 'files' svn propset svn:ignore 'default/files' and a few other combination, all valid AFAIK However, the setting just doesn't kick it. If the repository is accessed with a dektop client (ie C...
I need to do the following: Write pre-commit hook in Perl Hook should check all files being committed for presence of some text, and fail if that text is not found Basically, I need an example of Perl hook that reads files being committed. I am really looking for some elegant solution with the least amount of code. Notes: Hook sho...
Perhaps this question is more suited for serverfault, but I'm going to try here first anyway... Is there was a way to detect when a user uploads a file to a server and automatically check that file into source control? This is on a Solaris 10 server with WebStack. I know that this is possible in reverse, however I'd really like to do ...
What is the best way to organize and develop a project composed of many small scripts sharing one (or more) larger Python libraries? We have a bunch of programs in our repository that all use the same libraries stored in the same repository. So in other words, a layout like trunk libs python utilities projects ...
I have trouble where, for some reason, SVN would only merge the newly generated template code to implemented code (thus overwriting whatever I had done), but not the other way around. For example, 1) I generate a file called SomeFile.java. I commit this to trunk. I also branch this to feat1/SomeFile.java 2) I work off of the feat1/Som...
What would be the best way to set up a read-only git mirror of an existing svn repository, and set up post-commit hooks such that whenever someone commits to svn, the git mirror is automatically updated? Mainly, I'd like to run git-svn clone just once, on the server, and then let people just check out from git without having to git-svn c...
So, my server administrator rolled back the subversion server from a backup. My working copy is at revision 1534, but the server is now at 1525, which yields some problems: $ svn up svn: Revision 1534 not found Of course, there is always the option to do a clean checkout, but is there an easier way to get my local working copy in sync...
I'm looking for a way to search a whole subversion server. I already got a piece of the puzzle to search within a repository. Now I need to do this for every repository. Update: I have to access this list from some unix shell script (perl, bash, etc.) ...
I've found myself down a rabbit hole and would like advice. It looks like Mac OS X 10.5.8 comes bundled with a pre-configured version of Apache 2.2.11 (located in /usr/sbin), PHP 5.2.10 (located in /usr/bin) and subversion 1.4.4 (located in /usr/bin). I have installed MAMP for MySQL 5.0.41 (located in /Applications/MAMP/...) which come...
Hello, everyone! How could I let SVN list all files which were ever committed to a repository (if possible, along with location and revision). More exactly: I need all ever existed paths. If someone knows how to do a fulltext search on the entire repository (including all revisions), this would help me even better. Example Let's say...
