How do I find the creation time/date stamp of a subversion directory node.

I'd like to be able to figure out when a directory node was created, NOT just when it was "Last changed". I can get the Last changed date with the following: svn info -R --depth immediates http://<path-omitted>/branches/ | grep -...

Handling external dependencies in a SVN repository

I'm new to SVN and am trying to find a workflow / SVN structure for my team that is as painless as possible.

getting tree conflicts when merging with Subclipse

Hi, I am using Eclipse 8.6 and Subclipse 1.6, and svn 1.6.x server. I created a branch, made some changes in both branch and trunk, and now I am trying to merge from trunk to this branch.

A sane way to rename a directory in subversion working copy

While somehow versed in VCS (regular svn, git and git-svn user) I can't seem to wrap my head around this peculiar SVN behavior.

SVN - reviewing changes made by a specific person

Losing SVN history on files during refactoring

During some refactoring, I'm moving files around. Obviously SVN sees this as deleting the file and creating a new one since the IDE doesn't trigger an SVN rename/move operation. However I thought the SVN server would be smart enough to detect it, but this is not proving to be the case... not all the time anyway. I'm using Tortoise SVN an...
