A long time ago I had the following directory structure in my SVN repository trunk/ data/ levels/ 1.level 2.level ... ... ... But I deleted the 'levels' directory long ago. Now I want to add a single text file called 'levels' to the 'data' directory, so it will look like this...
I used the wiki in a project hosted at Google Code. With this wiki all the changes you make with the web interface are committed in the subversion repository of the project. For example, if you create the ExamplePage page using the wiki web interface the underlying software creates and commits a wiki/ExamplePage.wiki file in the subvers...
We're looking for a way to include some sort of build ID automatically in our builds. This needs to be portable (VC++, g++ on Linux and Mac) and automatic. VC++ is what matters most, since in the other environments we use custom Python build scripts so I can do whatever I want. We use SVN, so we were looking at using the output of svnve...
When building a project I tag the source using the svn copy command. When viewing history for trunk I don't see a log message for those tags. I would like to see a log message for each of my release versions in trunk. I want to be able to easily see which changes were in each release. Right now I need to go back and find the revision...
I was trying to check out a project from SVN using Eclipse. I tried using "Checkout As" to make it into a "Java project from existing Ant script", but the project wizard requires the file to have already been downloaded. Is there a way to checkout the project into Eclipse as a Java project, without having to download it elsewhere first? ...
I use cvs to maintain all my python snippets, notes, c, c++ code. As the hosting provider provides a public web- server also, I was thinking that I should convert the cvs automatically to a programming snippets website. cvsweb is not what I mean. doxygen is for a complete project and to browse the self-referencing codes online.I think...
For my staging site I have a subversion repository that I update when I need to view the changes on the staging server. Instead of manually updating the staging server subversion folder every few minutes when I need to check something, I've got a script that automatically checks for any subversion updates. My problem is that each time an...
I use svn for a project im working on with a couple of other developers. Svn works fine for source control however we are all ways getting conflicts when we commit the dlls. When i do i resolve the conflict (which deletes my dlls as the diff program cant handle binary files) then have to rebuild to commit. How are you meant to resolve c...
I've created a SubVersion server on one of the machines in my workgroup. From my development box I'm able to access the repository and check in/out files without any problem. I've just installed TortoiseSVN and no matter what I do it won't connect to the repository on the server. I get the infamous error "No connection could be made bec...
What's the best practice for setting up a subversion repository on a linux development machine. External users need to be able to access a specific repository, but nothing else on the machine. I know one answer is to set up a dedicated repository, but I'm looking for a single machine solution: location of repositories, accounts, backup...
Is it possible to get statistics about each users contributions, total line count etc? ...
I'm trying to access a Subversion repository with an integration plugin in Eclipse 3.2.2. (Okay, so I'm using EasyEclipse Server Java, it's just easier than setting up all of those plugins every time I have to setup a new development environment...) If there is no solution to this, I'd just as soon get to setting up an environment from...
How can I get a fully recursive svn blame report for all non-binary files in a branch, where the output is in a single file in xml format and includes revision, date, author, filename & path, and the text of the line of the file itself? The entire output needs to be in a single file. It will be executed as part of the build via a CCNet...
I had never tried Continuum as a build server until recently when a project required it. I appreciate the integration with Maven builds however I have been unable to find a way to have Continuum build my projects on every Subversion commit (like CruiseControl). There are several issue/bugs reported related to this topic of triggering b...
This sounds like a manual question to me but I can't find it. Suppose we have a repo with files and directories in it that shouldn't be under version control but rather should be on the ignore list (such as Eclipse files .settings, .project, generated doc files - things that should never have been added and committed in the first place)...
I have a whole heap of legacy code that I checked into my SVN repository. I checked it in under my user name. I'd like to change the author of that commit to another user, 'legacy', in order to clean up the svn blame printouts. ...
Today I came across a problem where someone had accidentally committed a proj.user file to the SVN repository. When i came to update, it obviously caused issues. It got me wondering if there was any way that you can block certain file extensions to be committed to the repository. I do realise there is an ignore list but as far as I am...
A friend of mine works in a small team where the developers (Java and .net), who currently use SVN for their source control, are about to have MKS Integrity forced upon them. My friend would like to keep an open mind but I suspect that secretly he wants to stay with SVN. Is there anyone out there who would be willing to share their ex...
Is there a way to migrate SourceSafe with HISTORY into a SVN ? Ideally I'd like to use VisualSVN Server, but I don't really want to lose my SourceSafe history. If I have to I will though. ...
I'm starting out with SVN. I know the basic commands and understand the base principles. I was wondering if anyone has any tips or best practices for working with Subversion in a team environment. I can see the benefit of adding reasonably verbose messages when committing code, but are there other things I should bear in mind? Than...
