I have a directory structure in svn like this: Project A branches tags trunk Project B branches tags trunk ... I want to checkout only trunk directories for all these projects. There are about 400 of these kind of projects so checking out trunk manually won't be an option. My first guess would be to use svn list, but my shell s...
We would like to move our code from the local SVN server to a hosted solution, how should we copy and re-import the code into the hosted SVN server. The main problem is we don't want to point to the older svn data files while re-importing. ...
Hi I've just upgraded from 1.5 of Tortoisesvn to 1.6 and most of my repos seem ok. But I have one where the icons are there as expected but when I try to commit a particular file I get there have been no changes. I've tried a cleanup and even trying to commit all the files but that just leaves the commit back hanging on Please Wait Che...
I have a TeamCity project setup that currently looks at the trunk of my svn project, checks that out, builds it, deploys it to a server and then runs some tests on that. I set this up so there would be 1 click deployment of services, however it can only be used from the trunk. I would like to setup the TeamCity project so that when giv...
I have a visual studio 2010 solution that uses a SQL CE fiel (SDF) for storing data in one of the projects. I am wondering, is it a good practice to add this SDF file to the source control so that whenever I make any changes in the database, I commit it to source control? Sometimes all i do is a name change for example, then I have to c...
Is it bad practice to have placeholder data in your source control repository? For example, when building a view is it ok to commit something like this: ... <span id="username">LoremIpsum</span> <span id="karma">999</span> ... ...or should I put the variable names in during design, and only view the work-in-progress view via some sort...
I need to search through all revisions of a Subversion repository to find file names and revision numbers that contain a particular string. I know that this will find occurrences in a dump: svnadmin dump $REPO_PATH | grep -i "Verdana" but the output is too cryptic. The output will include chunks of binary files that match. I have bee...
Someone branched our trunk and now I need to checkout the new branch. I already have trunk checked out locally. Since its a huge repo with GBs of files, it will take forever to checkout the new branch. But since very few files have changed between the trunk and the new branch, how can I just copy my local trunk, call it the branch, then...
I will be hosting a java project on SVN which will need to be downloaded by other developers with the ability of that project to be compiled / packaged on their local machine. I would like to know what files are needing to be stored on SVN and which ones can be left out. I know the files that Netbeans creates can be left out and the bu...
Hey, we started working with development- and featurebranches and it is actually quite useful. But, as we do most of the bug fixes in development branches it often happens, that I work on several things at a time, waiting for them to be reviewed by our QA. Now I fear that I will forget to merge a changeset/revision back into trunk after...
I have one main line and a branch. There are changes made on main line and also in branch. Now I need to make sure all the changes made on branch are moved to main line. Since there are changes made in main line as well, what is the best way to merge changes (from branch to main line)? Is there a way to see the difference of the two file...
Good evening everyone. I am in the planning stages of restructuring our subversion process and deployment in the attempt to minimize code loss and production deployment issues. Our current system simply consists of creating a sub domain name on a random server to test with before pushing live which drives me nuts. I wanted to hear som...
So we used to use port 22 for our svn repository, but port 22 was recently closed by the firewall administrator, which forced us to use a different port. Anyway, it seems like Xcode doesn't play very well with custom port numbers, because as soon as you change the port number to anything, even 22, you get the following error message: ...
I know I should be working on a branch of my own but a couple of us are on the same branch of a project. One of the Dev's made a commit and I just wanted to update my local copy with the latest from SVN. Running 'svn update' I get this output: Restored 'index.html' U somescript.php Conflict discovered in file.xml'. Select: (p) postp...
We moved our projects (SQL Server and .Net) from Visual-Source-Safe to SubVersion. We have installed Tortoise SVN and AnkhSVN clients on the location machine. When I lock a file, the icon in Windows Explorer changes, but there is no indication in Visual Studio of any lock. Visual-Studio Windows Explorer How do I fix this? ...

Hey I've a svn repository with some php files and I want to run it over the browser. Just like a normal page. But if I go to the repo url (http://server-URL/svn) enter my username/pass, navigate to my php project and selecting the index.php it just shows me the content of the index.php but not the real rendered page. How can I run my pro...
Hi all, I'm on a small team of about 6 people. Most of the group is careful to make sure their commits don't break trunk and use short-lived feature branches when they need to work on something for more than a couple of days, so they can check in code without destabilizing things for everyone else. And then there's the other guy. He ...
