We're looking at moving from a check-out/edit/check-in style of version control system to Subversion, and during the evaluation we discovered that when you perform an Update action in TortoiseSVN (and presumably in any Subversion client?), if changes in the repository that need to be applied to files that you've been editing don't cause ...
We have an intranet site backed by SVN, such that the site is a checkout out copy of the repository (working folder used only by IIS). Something on the site has been causing problems today, and I want to know how to find out what was checked out to that working folder in the last 48 hours. Update: If there's an option I need to turn on...
We encountered a problem with using Subversion on Windows. A developer committed a file foo.Data.sql and later another developer committed a file called foo.data.sql. Naturally, this caused a problem on Windows clients (all clients are Windows in our environments) because files are case sensitive in Subversion but not in Windows. We man...
I'd like to automate TortoiseSVN as part of a commit process. Specifically I'd like to dynamically create a log entry for the commit dialog. I know that I can launch the commit dialog either from the commandline or by right clicking on a folder and selecting svncommit. I'd like to use the start commit hook to setup a log entry. I thoug...
I would like to move a file or folder from one place to another within the same repository without having to use Repo Browser to do it, and without creating two independent add/delete operations. Using Repo Browser works fine except that your code will be hanging in a broken state until you get any supporting changes checked in afterwar...
SVN externals allow you to make an SVN folder appear as if it's at another location. A good use for this is having a common folder shared across all of your projects in SVN. I have a /trunk/common folder in SVN that I share via several different project. Example: Project1 : /trunk/project1/depends Project2 : /trunk/project2/depends ...
We have a rather large svn repository. Doing svn updates are taking longer and longer the more we add code. We added svn:externals to folders that were repeated in some projects like the FCKeditor in various websites. This helped but not that much. What is the best way to reduce update time and boost SVN speed? ...
I am using VS2008 and Resharper. Resharper creates a directory _Resharper.ProjectName. These files provide no value for source control that I am aware of and cause issues when committing changes. How can I get SVN to ignore them? I am using TortoiseSVN as my interface for SVN. EDIT: You guys are fast. ...
I'm running VisualSVN as my SVN server and using TortoiseSVN as the client. I've just renamed the server from mach1 to mach2 and now can't use SVN because it's looking for the repositories at http://mach1:81/ instead of the new name http://mach2:81/ Any idea how to fix this? ...
I've renamed my server and am trying to get to the VisualSVN repository via TortoiseSVN. In this post Gordon helped me find the right command - thanks Gordon. Now VisualSVN is asking me for a username and password. I don't recall setting one and if I did I've forgotten it. Any idea how to reset this username / password? ...
I recently was working with a subversion project that checked out code not only from the repository I was working with, but also from a separate repository on a different server. How can I configure my repository to do this? I'm using the subversion client version 1.3.2 on Linux, and I also have access to TortoiseSVN version 1.4.8 (bui...
I have setup a repository using SVN and uploaded projects. There are multiple users working on these projects. But, not everyone is working on all projects and require access. I want to setup permissioning for each of the projects with users. How to achieve this? ...
I'd like to know what the currently checked out revision number is for a file or directory. Is there a way to do this in TortoiseSVN on Windows ? ...
What is the best way to run your suite of unit tests after each commit? I'm particularly interested in the case that you do all of your features/changes in branches and keep your trunk stable. My source control is SVN and I use tortoise SVN as my client. Is there an SVN event or something along those lines that I can call a .cmd/.bat...
I've got an open-source app that is hosed at code.google.com. It is cross platform ( Linux / Windows / Mac ). I uploaded the code initially from a WinXP machine using TortiseSVN and it seems that none of the "configure" batch files that are used for the linux build have their "execute" bits set. What would be the easiest way to set the...
Guys, I am seeting up Apache server with TortoiseSVN for local source code repository. Currently on trial purpose I am setting only two users. Is it possible for administrator to set up some thing so that file get compulsory locked once its checkout (copy to working directory) by some one. Abhijit Dhopate ...
I'm trying to setup a new computer to synchronize with my SVN repository that's hosted with cvsdude.com. I get this error: Here's what I did (these have worked in the past): Downloaded and installed TortoiseSVN Created a new folder C:\aspwebsite Right-clicked, chose SVN Checkout... Entered the following information, clicked OK: U...
I am setting up Apache server with TortoiseSVN for a local source code repository. I have observed that if someone deletes a file using TortoiseSVN it will get deleted from everyone's view and the only log will be their in log history. I feel it is dangerous that any user can delete a file if they have read/write rights (accidentally or...
At work, we have a windows server 2003 with IIS and Subversion installed. We use it to publish and test locally our ASP.NET websites. Every programmer has Tortoise installed on his PC and can update/commit content to the server. Hosting the repositories is working fine. But the files kept in those repositories needs then to be copied to...
My boss asked me to setup a subversion server for him to use so that he can share all his documents across different machines in sync and still be able to access them when there is no internet connection. I have this up for him, but now he's requesting that the 'create date' file attribute be preserved. I explained that since he downlo...
