Hello I want to use Git and Github for the development of a project. But college requisites says that I must use a SVN repo of their own. I think it should be possible to develop using Git–Github and use the SVN as a mirror of the Git Repo. Nobody will commit directly to the SVN repo, only to the git repo. My question is, How to I do...
Hi there, I'm trying to checkout a external repository to my current working copy. This is my setup: Current Working Copy D:\working_copy\ External Path D:\external_working_copy\uploads Then I setup the svn:external property to D:\working_copy\: uploads file:///D:/SVN/external_working_copy/trunk/uploads then if I run up...
I have this shortcut in my vimrc: map cmt :!start TortoiseProc.exe /command:commit /path:"%" /closeonend:3 <CR> What this does is whenever I press 'cmt', vim will open the commit dialog for the file I'm currently editing with vim. What I'd like to do is write this command in such a way that if I put a number in front of it, it will o...
My company currently uses SVN for it's repository. In order to get better merging and local branches/revisions I've been using git-svn over a subset of the larger repository. My company was recently purchased and one of the services offered by the corporate mothership is centralized SVN or Perforce hosting. Given that neither Perforce...
I have a big repository, 100,000+ revisions with a very high branching factor. The initial fetch of the full SVN repository using git-svn has been running for around 2 months and it's only up to revision 60,000. Is there any way to speed this thing up? I'm already regularly killing and restarting the fetch due to git-svn leaking memor...
I have taught myself to use tortoise for svn changes but after "committing" the changes I was still relying on others to "push" the ssh so the changes reflect live on the server... I downloaded Tunnelier but dont quite know where to start to run that command line update ...
Hi all, How I got into a pickle: svn switch http://repo/project/rbanches/branchname/plugins/com.securemacprogramming.myplugin com.securemacprogramming.myplugin What this caused (in addition to "incoming delete on switch" in svn status): svn switch http://repo/project/branches/branchname/plugins/com.securemacprogramming.myplugin com....

I am trying to find a way to export a list of file names in a given changeset. I can access the info in TortoiseSVN very easily using the Log Messages. But I need to record which files have changed in a separate CM tool (not by choice). ...
The following issue is becoming increasing common: There are several developers working on a project which includes new files (usually images) Everyone says that everything is checked in and we freeze development. Unbeknownst to us, there are images which were not checked in. The user doesn't notice the missing files because they're ne...
In writing a pre-commit hook for subversion, I am in a situation where my call to svnlook as MESSAGE=`svnlook cat -t $TXN $REPOS $FILE` results in a returned value which consists of a single, continuous line instead of the properly formatted file(s) that changed in the attempted commit. This is problematic because the formatting of th...
Lets say I have project A on SVN server, and it has some large file. Lets say I create a new project B, but it is actually a copy of project A. I create it, import it on the SVN server (different folder / URL), and I start with a new revision history. The problem is, that new project has that same large file - can I somehow reuse that...
Hello, I installed and set up Redmine project management application. Now I need to setup its backups (which include database dump + "files" directory). But I have a question: Do I have to check in my Redmine backups into my SVN repository or not? ...
A few questions regarding this topic: 1) What's the largest development team (doing actual commits, not counting read-only) you've had on a single SVN repository? Did you have any issues? 2) What's the largest size team you'd be comfortable with on a single SVN repository? Is a different version control tool better for very large team...

While adding a new file to the working copy and committing it to the repo, we get the error Can't open file '/var/svn/mobilesync/db/txn-current-lock': Permission denied What is the issue and what can I do about it ? Is it a matter of a lock created by a previous proces...
Can I use git-svn without having the git-svn-id: entries appended to my commit message? I have found the svn.noMetadata option comes with a warning (emphasis mine): This gets rid of the git-svn-id: lines at the end of every commit. If you lose your .git/svn/git-svn/.rev_db file, git svn will not be able to rebuild it and...
Hi all, I want to introduce the following branching model in my project version1 -> version2 -> version3 -> version4 -> etc. so 1) There is no trunk 2) Each version is branched from the previous one Isn't going to be perfomance issue here linked to constantly increasing "branch depth"? Thanks in advance ...
I'm relatively new to Subversion. I'm familiar with the basic concepts and have used simple checkout/update/commit commands, but nothing more. I am starting a new project and would like to use Subversion. I work from a lot of different computers, so having a local svn repo doesn't make much sense. I do have access to a server. I do not ...

We have a very large existing site that we're going to do a completely brand new build for. Our client has their own hosted SVN repo they've paid for which we use to commit and update our working code. As a dev shop, we have our own SVN repo internally. I'd like to get this new build of the site in both the client's hosted SVN as well as...
