Details: Tortoisesvn client (latest version) Windows Vista. Yesterday I wanted to add an external directory. I made a mistake with the external path (I wrote an error in the url) and now I am constantly getting these error messages: External failed , could not resolve hostname. This is correct because I made a mistake in my external...
Hi, I am looking to set up our web application shop to start utilzing svn better. Currently we have programmers making changes into trunk which then directly affects production... yes I know - terrible! I want to set up seperate branches so that there is a branch that we use to make fixes. Then we can promote to the QA branch and then...
I logged into a subversion repository using TortoiseSVN client (Vista) anonymously and now it does not let me log in as any other user. Since I logged in as anonymous it did not cache any user credentials and so the "Clear Authentication Data" button is disabled under the TortoiseSVN settings window. Since it is disabled there is nothing...
Hi, I am using AnkhSVN in Visual Studio. How can I delete all files from SVN as I delete them from Visual Studio (files ARE NOT included in projects). Ideally I would like to do: Press "Show All Files" In Visual Studio (shows the files not included in projects). Delete selected files (the ones not included in projects) from VS...
My coworker has a problem with the way that svn update works, but I'm not sure why, so this question has two sides. First, how to solve his problem the way he wants, and second, should I try to convince him that the way TortoiseSVN does things now is the best way (and if so, how)? His Ideal Use Case Right click->SVN Update SVN pulls i...
After going through tutorials on getting started with Tortoise I am finally starting to get it, the confusion for me is after going through the setup process: 1) I create my SVN repo 2) I have my directory where I work, lets say it's called "My Site" 3) I use tortoise to rightclick my site and import them to my SVN...good so far I thi...
I have a subversion server on my local network and access it using the 192.168.1.x address. The problem is that when I leave my house and need to update svn on my laptop, I now have to use an external address. I've been using the svn relocate command to switch between external and internal addresses, but this is cumbersome. Does anyon...
I'm creating a patch on trunk and, when applying it to another branch, get "The patch seems outdated" error. I didn't find a resolution on Google. The trunk has just been merged to the branch. I'm using 64bit TortoiseSVN v1.63 on Windows 7. ...
Are there any tools out there, free or otherwise, that will show, in a graphical fashion, merges from one branch into another? What I have in mind would be similar to TortoiseSVN's revision graph, but with additional notation and lines to indicate merges from one line of development into another. If such tools exist, which do you prefe...
We've got a pretty complicated repository here, and I'm trying to get the most out of our recent switch to Subversion. We generally have things setup like this: parent_dir (unversioned) ->module1_dir (versioned) ->module2_dir (versioned) ->module3_dir (versioned) ->etc And so forth. Where modules1-x are generally various modules all...
Hey everyone, Everywhere I go on google I get the same answer to this problem but it is the wrong answer for me. Originally I installed Subversion 1.5.6 for windows (i run Windows Server 2008) on my server and i made a repository for a project. Then I used a Tortoise client version 1.6.X on my laptop to update the project. Everything wa...
I'm probably reading too much into ignore, but other than not showing up in the list when you commit, are there any other feature/benefits associated with ignoring a file? ...
My repository looks like this: trunk doc src etc... I want to grab the entire contents of src and get the other directories as needed in the future. If I do a sparse checkout of trunk with "Just this item", I can get all of src by going into the Repo-Browser per the TortoiseSVN documentation (under the section "Checkout Depth". I...
I am use tortoiseSVN to synchronize our code. But recent I found that there is something that is not so convenient. When i modify a file, let's say a.jsp, and my colleague might also modify this file, a.jsp, and this may result in conflict, and any one of use need to checkin the his code first, and the other one will need to update ...
Sometimes Tortoise requires me to do cleanup for no good reason - meaning I didn't abuse / kill it / stop it in the middle ... IMO this is "normal opertaional flow" and shouldn't require a manual cleanup. Is there a way to not show these cleanup requests to the user but rather just do them silently under the hood and present a consisten...
This is a really basic question - but I can't find the answer or make it work. I have a Fogbugz account - myaccount.FogBugz.com. - username: fred; password: jim I have a repository on Fogbugz: TestRepository. What is the url I use on TortoiseSVN to connect to this repository? eg https://myaccount.FogBugz.com/svn/TestRepository does not...
In TortoiseSVN 1.5.1 I've noticed a curious pattern. If I change one line in a versioned file and then view difference the diff will highlight not only the changed line but also the last line of the file (though the last line hasn't changed and the colors in the highlight display that correctly). Is there any use of this curious highlig...
I have a networked repository that i used to checkout files to my local working directory. That works fine. What i would like to do now is to take either the repository or local version and push that to a new repository. How can i do that? I'm basically trying to get my repository copied out of my network and into an online svn (project ...
Working on three different computers at two different locations, on projects that are in subversion, I once in a while forget to check in stuff at one location, so that I cannot work on the latest code, when I want to continue working on the project at another location. I am sure other have had similar problems. What are some things I ...
I ignored a file in TortoiseSVN by mistake. How do I reverse this and add the file to my repository? ...
