What do you guys think of the new Ankh SVN /w Tortoise SVN? This is my first time using source control and all I used it for was the very basics. It worked well... At first... Somewhere along the way everything got really screwed up and I had to uninstall it. It seems like you have to use it a certain way or everything will screw up.....
Has anyone else experienced this? I have uninstalled and reinstalled TortoiseSVN as well as followed a suggestion I found online about turning off the icon overlays but Explorer on Windows Vista will still crash when I perform certain operations like pulling up the context menu (i.e. Right Click), hitting the delete key, hitting Ctrl+C ...
Any time an issue comes up like a merge conflict or something similar, it really slows me down. Can someone explain to me how to force-resolve conflicts? For example, a buddy of mine made an edit to a file on the repository and committed. While he was doing that, I had already renamed that file and made many edits to it on my working ...
Hi, TortoiseSVN seems to fail to update my working copy when I issue an update command. If I do an update to revision and make sure that fully recursive is selected, then it picks up the changes. Additionally, when I checked out the copy from SVN, fully recursive was selected. How can I get a normal update to pickup all of the chang...
I have an SVN repository that I use for storing both code and data files (binary & text). I have noticed slower performance as the repository has grown.

Using TortoiseSVN on Windows, how do I delete files from the repository that have already been deleted on the file system? I would expect them to show up as "missing" or "deleted" on my next commit, but that doesn't seem to be the case. On Linux/Mac, I just run this command: svn st | grep ^! | cut -b7- | xargs svn delete -Chris ...
Hello, I use subversion with TortoiseSVN on projects at work and my personal ones. I was wondering what is considered best practice in terms of being able to setup your repo so that doing a SVN Checkout and VisualSVN for Visual Studio will get you all that you need to compile ... but I want to be able to mark certain files so that t...

I'd like the simples tool to help my workflow, something in between a basic revision control system and a sync tool.

One of the ascx file saves very slow in source (html) mode but other files in same project are working fine. I have deleted this file from my working copy and created a new file with the same name but it is also very slow in saving. I have also created a new ascx file and pasted script of corrupted file in this new file and here this scr...
Hi, I'm new to SVN but have used Clearcase for years. My issue is I have some changes on a branch which I have merged back to trunk using TortoiseSVN "Reintegrate a branch" feature. Now when I look at the version tree I don't see any edge being rendered from the tip of the branch to the tip of the trunk, which I would expect to see. I...
I am using tortoise SVN for a project that I'm working alone and I have committed (by mistake) a huge file to my repository (a VC++ Intellisense Database). Now I want to remove this file from my repository to facilitate its backup. Removing the file from my project and doing a commit (obviously) do not solve my problem as the previous v...

I'm used to VSSConneXion, and love the feature 'Review Changes' where I can go through every changed file and comment the change while looking at it: Now I'm trying to get used to SubVersion and Tortoise. Is there a similar feature available? I can get a list of changed file, and I can diff each file for changes, but I can't find a wa...

When build is done, then this file is parsed and the file with corresponding rev number is taken and renamed to a standard file name . and final build is done. How to get...
Most everything about the subversion eco-system makes me happy; however the reminders to upgrade to newer versions of the tools gets annoying. Is there any way to turn these off if I am rolling the client to hundreds of workstations? I know I can dismiss the dialog box and tell it not to remind me but I want to never show the dialog bo...
I've read about the svn move command but haven't been able to use it the right way... Here's my situation: I have a project with 5 components. Right now, I've made separate Repositories for each component and they all have a flat structure. I'd like to move all these components into a single repository so that I'd finally have a structur...
