Hi I have a Helpdesk application that contains modules that can be downloaded and installed separately as required / preferred by the users. The structure is very similar to many software such as Drupal, which modules can be loaded/unloaded easily. I'm using a single SVN repository for this Helpdesk application and create different tag...
Is there any way to have something like svn externals for files stored in source control (Subversion preferably but I'd be interested if it's possible or easier for other SCM systems). Here's what I mean. Say I've got a whole bunch of SQL scripts and these have to be merged into one big script for packaging each release. It would be goo...
I've been doing all my work in Git and pushing to GitHub. I've been very happy with both the software and the site and I have no wish to change my working practices at this point. My PhD adviser is asking all students to keep their work in SVN. I've found tons of documentation and tutorials about to pull down an existing SVN repo into g...
I am about to start a project (.NET) and need to decide between TFS and SVN. I am more used to SVN(with tortoise client), CVS and VSS. Does TFS have all features available in SVN Have any of you switched from SVN to TFS and found it worthwhile? Also it looks like we may need Visual Studio if we need to work with TFS. [Edit] Money is n...
I have some repositories on a svn server which include an Eclipse project. In those repositories it is put the bin folder because I have some properties files and I couldn't run the program without putting them in that folder. Now when I checkout the project, import the project in Eclipse and build it the svn entries for the folder bin...
On Mac OS X Leopard - when I try and access a remote repository from Terminal it always asks for: 1. Password 2. Username 3. Password (again) with the message: "Authentication realm: http://svn.myserver.com:80 Subversion" I've checked and my credentials are being stored in Keychain and SVN has access to them. Why won't it use them? ...
This is something I've come across twice in the past month and I'm not even certain how to phrase this as a Google query. I'm actually using SVN for all of this, but it seems like this should be a general versioning problem. We have two projects and one of them is dependent on some of the other's code. Due to API issues, it is not pra...
I'm looking for a succinct and well-written tutorial on using svn:externals. I already know how to use them in a basic way myself, but I want a good article that I can link to when answering questions like this one that come up recently: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/662898/what-to-do-with-multiple-projects-depend-on-the-same-s...
I am building a target in nant that branches our project. It creates a branch in SVN, checks out that branch, updates various files within that branch with the new provided version number, checks it all in. The SVN branch works fine the first time (using the copy command URL->URL) , but if it is run a 2nd time, it copies the trunk to t...
I attempted to add a new project to an existing svn repository and ended up screwing it up royally - the wrong directories got included, including some very large files, causing me to cancel part way thru... I'd like to remove the directory from subversion completely and try again. As I understand svn delete records the deletion but kee...
I've setup a new SVN repository, running SVNServe, in the conf file, anon-access = none. SVNServe faithfully does that correctly, but when I try to browse the repos using TortoiseSVN, it just says access is not allowed. Shouldn't it ask me for the user name and password instead? How do I get TortoiseSVN to ask me for the login details?...
I made some changes and commited them (to version 2), and found out that they introduced new bugs to my program some minutes later. So I switched to some of the files to an older version to get some of the files back to version 1 on my local platform. Since then I have made a lot of changes I don't want to lose, and I have used commit (v...
Hi, I am trying to make our subversion repository accessible via multiple URLs. To do so, I was thinking to use the LocationMatch directive. My configuration is: <Location ~ "/(svn|repository)"> DAV svn SVNPath /opt/svn AuthzSVNAccessFile /etc/subversion/access </Location> The above configuration does NOT work ... Strange thing...
At work we have a very large code-base that we commonly export for a web application to ensure everything is up-to-date. If we develop test code it is always done in a branch in order to make sure it's not conflicting with the trunk which could unexpectedly cause a bug to get released. My question is whether it's possible to do an SVN ...
The company where I work has been trialling scrum on a project and is now looking to roll scum out to three or four different project teams. We are envisaging that these teams will work in separate feature branches (we are using SVN). We are not sure if the different teams’ sprints should end simultaneously or if we should stagger the ...
I'm using NetBeans 6.5 and I have some javascript files that it claims are binary files and won't display annotations. svn propedit shows that the svn:mime-type is text/javascript and to display the annotations on the command line I have to run "svn annotate --force file.js". ...
I have multiple website projects in a single repository each of which have a copy of WordPress. Updating WordPress means updating all project folders and keeping redundant copies. This is useful for my rsync scripts which sync the entire folder. It also gives me fully working local copies of the site. There are a number of ways I can se...
svn doesnt commit a library like MySql connector, so when i commit my project it is not uploaded to the server, how can i do this, i how to sync another resources like pictures ...
I have been using Git for some time now to manage my own personal projects. I didn't really think about how I used it. I usually commit all the changes whenever there is a milestone not really thinking. But after reading a blog post that mentions how you should right your commit messages, I realized that I don't really know how to prope...
I am using Google code svn and have a repository setup. Inside the repository I am including TinyMCE and now I want to upgrade all the files in this folder. The problem I am having is if I checkout locally and then download their new version and replace the folder it wipes out all my svn files. So in effect removes it from version cont...
