I am trying to install Git-core with svn to my Mac unsuccessfully by $ sudo port install git-core +svn ---> Verifying checksum(s) for db46 Error: Checksum (md5) mismatch for patch.4.6.21.3 Error: Target org.macports.checksum returned: Unable to verify file checksums Error: The following dependencies failed to build: p5-svn-simple subve...
Using SVN or Git the thought had occurred to me to use the directory structure as a meta data place holder. Each team would have a directory in a shared repository for their code. The more I think about it though the worse the idea seems. The reason it appears like a bad idea to me is that teams are not static entities. Teams can van...
When I merge stuff in my repository Subversion wants to add/change a lot of svn:mergeinfo properties to files that are totally unrelated to the things that I want to merge. Questions about this behaviour have been asked before here on Stackoverflow.com, as you can read here and here. From what I understand from the topics mentioned abov...
When merging a couple of branches (using SVN 1.6.1) where a file has been added on both branches (and then worked on in those separate branches) I'm getting one of the new tree conflicts: C foo.txt > local obstruction, incoming add upon merge I need the changes from both branches, but the tree conflict doesn't give me the us...

This may be impossible, but I'm going to ask anyway. Without going into the details of why it's like this, I have two primary checkouts that I work in, one for the production release branch, and one for trunk. Each of them is a small collection of svn:externals references to sub-projects, with no direct content under the checked-out sv...
I have various files that I want to be ignored by SVN when committing. I know that I can go into TortoiseSVN and ignore them in various ways. I know that I can run svn propedit svn:ignore from the command line to do the same thing. The problem is that I have to have everyone on my team to do that, which is a pain. Is there a way that...
I need to manage XML documents in Subversion but don't want to manage the formatting which may turn out differently depending on who is editing the file. I see two solutions: Either format the file each time with a known formatting before checking in. Or give svn a diff program that actively dismisses formatting from the diff algorithm....
I've seen repositories in SVN that did not at least create a local trunk, branches, and tags folder on the client. So is are the default folders required for use with SVN (I'm using tortoise) or what? I don't see why some people have the folders but some do not in some implementations of repositories. ...
Is there something I can do or consider when working with Word files in source control/Subversion in order to minimize the size of the changes in the repository? Background For a project we have a Word document with our functional specifications with screen shots from a prototype in source control (Subversion). The Word file itself is ...

I recently had to change my development to another PC. I installed TortoiseSVN because I still had source code lying around that had still to be checked in SVN. But apparently the new installation of Tortoise does not recognize my source folders, although the '.SVN' folders are still there I see no overlay icons appearing on the files. ...
How do you track/manage your stored procedures, views, and functions in SQL Server? I'd like to use Subversion, but it looks like I would have to just save & commit the CREATE/ALTER statements. That might work okay for me, but I suspect I'd end up doing a lot of nagging. Is anyone using versioning with their databases? Is there a bette...
When updating from subversion repository using tortoise svn client I get error looking like that: Could not read chunk size: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. It doesn't prevent me from updating, just interrupts update process, so that I have to repeat update several times, before it is complete. What can...
I finally found an answer to my question when I wanted to post it! However I'll still post it, including my answer, in case it helps someone else: When converting from CVS to Subversion cvs2svn failed on some files with the message "xxx is not a valid ,v file" What's the problem? ...

I just asked a rtm worthy question about SVN. I've used SVN for several years and I manage several repositories used for different projects; apparently, I've been managing to get by with my simplistic mastery of SVN's client app. How do I get to the next level (of effective SVN workflow)? How do I learn to master the app when I don't, i...
The way we use Subversion is to work on the trunk, feature branches for significant features (> 1 days work) and release branches. We delete feature branches once they are happily merged but we want to keep release branches around in case they are needed for bug fixes and so on. Each of us checks out the root of the project as a minimu...
