How can I manage multiple SVN repositories/trac instances easily? I have a bunch of projects that I want to consolidate into a single authentication scheme. Also, I want to be able to enable plugins for every project and configure a bunch of trac options for multiple projects all at one time. It would also be nice to be able to add and ...
Hi all, I have inherited a single project in svn: 30Gb in over 300 000 files. There are tons of binary files in there mostly in an images folder. Operations like updating the entire project can be dramatically slow. The team has evolved a process to only run update/switch on the specific folders they are working on and end up checking...
I'm working on a Flash project right now and I am having to force a designer into using our Source Control repository (SVN) to help manage and track the project. It's been a bit of an uphill battle to fully get him to embrace the benefits of source control, but it's coming along. I haven't had to use source control for a Flash project ...
I make a checkout of some branch or tag from subversion repository and then build the project with maven. Now, I'd like to get store current revision number and URL to some file. How can I do that? That is, I'd like to get revision number and URL of whatever branch/tag I have made checkout of. I know about buildnumber-maven-plugin but...
My workflow usually involves me making multiple changes to a file, each of which belongs to it's own conceptual unit of change across the project (= commit). What I would like to be able to do is to add certain diffs (either a whole file, or only certain lines of a file) to a pending commit (which would probably have to be named) and to...
I am using unfuddle to host some private projects, unfuddle is an excellent solution to being able to update and modify my sources through SVN anytime and when I feel like to even when I’m not home. The problem is at work we are behind a mandatory proxy which I cannot disable, keeping me from accessing my unfuddle repository through SVN...
I'm a beginner in svn. I know basic things like creating a repository, checking, updating, creating branches and such, but I have some difficulty in defining a structure for my repository when working with various cms. Let's suppose I'm creating a lot of components and templates for a cms, like Joomla!. These components are going to be ...
I'm an absolute newbie when it comes down to subversion and SVN (don't even know the difference). As I'm developing a pretty big website I'm looking for a way to take care of different versions (PHP, CSS, JavaScript files and MySQL database) and to make backups. I would like to use a web based system so I have an external backup. I'm not...
I've got a source code tree in subversion with several branches. I've just finished a fairly intense debugging session in an otherwise active branch and now need to merge the changes across to the new branch. The new branch was taken off trunk (which represents released code) recently, after all the development in the old branch (obvious...
I am a release engineer for a team of 35 programmers. We are working on PHP, Java, C# and SQL. We currently use Subversion, which has worked okay for about a year. We are going through a phase where conflicts are becoming more and more common. Our application footprints are growing, so performance is becoming an issue for checkouts and c...
Hi My company maintains two SVN repositories, Repository 1 and Repository 2: This repository has multiple projects in it, and is only accessed by the developers within the company. Access is through HTTPS and authentication is through the Windows domain. This repository has a single project in it, and is accessed by the developers wit...
I've arrived at the point where I realise that I must start versioning my database schemata and changes. I consequently read the existing posts on SO about that topic but I'm not sure how to proceed. I'm basically a one man company and not long ago I didn't even use version control for my code. I'm on a windows environment, using Aptana...
For many Subversion operations, appending the '@' symbol to the end of a file or URL argument allows you to target a specific revision of that file. For example, "svn info test.txt@1234" will give information about test.txt as it existed in revision 1234. However, when the name of the file contains an @, it is incorrectly interpreted b...
We have several large subprojects inside our main SVN project root. I commit and merge only my subproject when working with our release branches, mainly because it's faster. However, a colleague pointed out this reference to merging subdirectories in Version Control with Subversion (a.k.a "The SVN Book"): For long-lived release b...
Should i resolve myself to add third party and ajax libraries that i use in my project - tinyMCE editor for example (more than 1800 files) or fckEditor - when my project doesn't contain nearly as many files, just for the sake of compilation? or should i just find a way to add it to the build later? ...
I want to configure my computer so that say every half an hour it automatically commits the program I am working on. I am using a svn repository so even if it was just a script that ran 'svn ci' every 30 min that would be okay. The problem is that I don't know how to do that. Could somebody please tell me, or direct me to something, tha...
I have a problem that I am not sure of the best way to tackle. I have been working on a project that requires me to go to China to do the install and integration. My code has been under subversion since the start, since that was what I knew and had used in the past. I now have concerns that I may not be able to do any checkins while I am...
Subversion has multiple server types: svnserve daemon svnserve via xinetd svn over ssh http-based server direct access via file:/// URLs Which one of these is best for a small Linux system (one to two users)? ...
I mostly develop on windows. I'm the only developer, the only thing I'm confused about is how can I carry them with me where ever I go. I don't want them on some server on the internet. Because I sometimes have to work offline for days (or sometimes painfully slow connection). Mostly I carry the project on a portable device. So when I...
So here's an example of what I currently have RepoA - trunk -- directory_a -- directory_b -- directory_c I need to get directory_b out of the RepoA and into its own repository (RepoB). RepoA - trunk -- directory_a -- directory_c RepoB - trunk -- directory_b Is the best way to do this by cloning the master RepoA SVN directory to Re...
