Maintain git local branches when switching svn remote branches

I have been using git-svn working happily along, branching for whatever, rebasing from and dcommitting to trunk and then the powers that be decided that we are going to start working out of a branch instead of trunk. My question is how do I get branches that were spawned from master that was tracking trunk to rebase/merge into the new lo...

SVN access issue

I am having some difficulty accessing my svn repository. Cannot browse the repository, do updates and/or commits, basically nothing can be done. I get "can't open file /format permission denied" error. Other users are able to perform all operations normally. Is there a way some logging can be enabled to figure out what exactly has gone ...

Completely and utterly screwed up svn repo - how to start fresh

So I recently had a tree conflict when trying to merge a branch into the trunk. This cascaded into a series of events in which I scrambled to try and fix the issue, but now just can't really do anything (things won't commit, things won't update, etc.) How can I just say, okay -- go back to here and start fresh, or what other techniques ...

Can't get SVN exclusions in Hudson to work

MySQL stored procedures in SVN

What is the best way to save MySQL stored procedures and table structures in SVN? I have around 100 tables and 200 stored procedures, dumping all procedures in a single file makes no sense as it contains thousands of lines and hard to maintain.

Hi I have a framework based project that I'm using SVN to version control. I have a local working copy I use for development, a working copy on the staging machine that's checked out the latest RC tag, and the latest stable tag checked out on my production server.

Use LDAP for SVN user authentication

I have an SVN server, and I'd like to use our LDAP server for user authentication. Right now I'm specifying usernames and passwords per repository, which is working OK, but more people are deciding to use this server. And I really shouldn't have access to their passwords. I'd like to use LDAP to authenticate users, and I want to grant ac...

Is there a GitX equivalent for Subversion that allows command-line execution?

I really like being able to the command-line tool gitx from Terminal.app to open GitX and see the Git repository change log that I can scroll through, with nicely formatted diffs for each. Git and Subversion are fairly different, and I know a tool to view a log and diffs for a checkout of a part of the subversion repo certainly wouldn't...

Freeing up space in my SVN repository

I have an SVN repository hosted on a freemium site with a maximum repository size. As I approach this capacity I am aware of files I've checked in that I know I can remove permanently to free up disk space. How do I tell SVN that a file can not only be deleted, but it's history as well? ...

Transfer only revision history from Google Code to GitHub

We recently moved our project from Google Code to GitHub, but only wanted to move a part of it (up to say revision 600) so instead of using GitHub's built-in system to transfer an SVN repo over we just created the project out of a local project folder that was appropriate. However, I'd like to transfer over the revision history up to a ...

Do you store planning documents in source control? If so, where?

I'm working on a small, personal project and am using Subversion to manage the source code. I have a couple of small planning files - simple text documents explaining where I want to go with the project and some ideas worth keeping track of about what I've already done - that I think should be under source control as well. What I don't ...
