How to download an svn archive from a trac tree?

There is a project which had an svn server that is down now, but the trac-browser is still available. Is there a simple way to acces that tree as if it was an svn server? Preferably I'd just donwload the whole repo via git-svn, but a wget solution for the current revision would also be great (the trouble with the latter is that simply cr...

Tortoise SVN problem: Folder that's no longer in Repository is showing up with a caution icon.

I'm using Tortoise SVN on Windows 7. I've got a folder that got fouled up (probably b/c I renamed it outside of SVN). I've read the SO article about obstructed folders/files, and that folder is now not listed in the Repository but it's still showing up with a warning icon (when I do a Cleanup Tortoise reports that it's "not a working d...

How can I ensure that all my hudson build slaves check out the same svn revision for the daily build?

My workplace uses Hudson for its daily builds, with several build slaves (one Linux, one Windows, one Mac) checking out our full codebase from svn and building our app at midnight each day. This all works fairly well. There is an occasional problem that happens though... sometimes a developer will be working late, and will check in a c...

configuration files in version control while deploying

I have a particular problem with config files and deployment. When I deploy my project, it eventually moves to two different branches: staging and production (using SVN here) I make the branch from my local working copy of the project. What this ends up doing is overwriting staging and development's copy of the config files, so I manual...

Eclipse, Subversion and relocating of projects

Hello, I use Eclipse 3.5.1 downloaded from Yoxos under Ubuntu 9.10. I had to correct some problems : - GTK bug (export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1) - sqlite3 (I replaced the version of Ubuntu by a fresh one from the site and compiled; before I got a crash each time I get a hint about a function) But I still have one with subversion : I r...

Howto fix subversion «!» status.

The subversion manual states: '!' Item is missing (e.g. you moved or deleted it without using svn). This also indicates that a directory is incomplete (a checkout or update was interrupted).

i need to merge a file from a branch to trunk with svn merge

I'm not allowed to use cherry pick, and they only want specific changes from one file (possibly 2) from one bug fix branch to the trunk. The bug fix branch is an older release, so we don't want to merge the entire thing; just the new additions to the specific file. I used cherry pick once before in a similar and even messed that up :) . ...

Need help with SVN: Trunk/Branches/Tags structure

We are currently using SVN without Trunk/Branches/Tags structure.

Is it true in Mercurial (hg), the same as Git, that a revision you committed may only have code not modified by you? (a merge)

Seems like in SVN, when you do a merge, there won't be a revision checked in by you. All your "commits" should only have code that is changed by you. But in Mercurial, that's not the case. Your "merge" commits are committed by you, but they usually contain changes that are made by other people. And if that commit triggered an error i...

svn; utilize lazy copies for existing versions (branches) on initial commit.

Hey guys, I'm moving to subversion. I have 2 different websites based on the same codebase with heavy differences (they differ about 15%). Sites both have >10K files. When I develop something for 'A', I sometimes synch 'B' with changes, or changes may be specific to 'A', or vice versa. So I think it will be logical to have them as two ...

Subversion equivalent to Git's 'show' command?

I like how you can see what went into a git with git show rev I haven't found an equivalent in Subversion. It seems Subversion wants you to do a diff between two commits to get anything reasonable. Am I mistaken, or is there an equivalent to git show in svn to just see what went into a commit? ...
