I have a series of python scripts with execute permissions in Linux. They are stored in SVN. If I then run svn up to update them, the overwritten files are back to 644 - ie no execute permissions for anyone. Yes I could just script it to chmod +x * afterwards, but surely there's a way to store permissions in SVN or to maintain them wh...

Our Subversion repository has several subdirectories containing shared files as well as subdirectories for each project. Projects are set up with relative svn:externals properties to pull in shared directories out of the repository and set them up as subdirectories. So, for example, our repostory looks something like this: client sha...
Imagine the following situation: A virus infected file was commited into a Subversion repository. A Anti Virus scanner runs on the server and also scans the Subversion repository.

I keep the main repository on a USB flashdrive. I recently came across the following error when trying to commit a current working copy (and both working copies,...

I don't really care of what scripting language it'll use (as long as it runs on windows). I tried creating su...
