Hi, if I update an ASP.Net application or even just a virtual directory containing XML files, ASP.Net will not serve any pages for that application until the update is done. Why? Can it be prevented with some .Net code? Does VSS behave better? My clients can't use the website while I update simple XML files. Very inefficient. Carl ...
Hi I've been trying to find some tutorials on writing hook scripts, and so far my search has been pretty fruitless. Can anyone point me in the direction of a good source? I've checked the SVN book, but can't find anything that detailed in there (although I may simply not have looked in the right place). any help is appreciated. BTW: I si...
Say I have a project that uses external dependencies which are imported from another repository using svn:externals. When creating a TAG, I don't want it to depend on an external repository. What is the easiest way to commit a TAG including the real code instead of a reference? ...
I always have problems renaming a directory in TortoiseSVN. It seems to be taking the correct steps, marking the original directory and directory files for deletion and adding a new directory with the new name. I try to commit and get conflicted state and wound up checking out my whole project again. Is this a known bug? My workaroun...
The situation is that I've spent some time messing around with some experimental code. I now want to move part of that code - about 500 lines - into another file, but I don't want to lose the history, as I would if I do a simple text-editor cut and paste. As close as I know how to get is separating the code out of the original file - sv...
So I followed the fogbugz guidelines to add some properties to my project repository. The only SVN property I changed was bugtraq:warnifnoissue. In the documentation mentioned above, it's set to false. I set it to true. If I use TortoiseSVN, when I go to check in a file, I will see the Fogbugz case number textbox to the above right of th...
I am new to SVN and I've poked around looking for an answer on this but I haven't found it yet so here goes: Using TortoiseSVN, I bring up the REPO browser and navigate to the root of the repository where I can view all the projects. Is there any way to navigate to a given project and then inquire whether there exists any working copy ...
How do I see the differences between revisions 1 and 100 of an open source project with TortoiseSVN? ...
I use and love Subversion and TortoiseSVN. However, there is one feature I sorely miss: I work on a big project whose source files are on an external server. Each time I click "SVN Commit..." from Windows Explorer, TortoiseSVN will search the whole tree for changes, which takes a lot of time. However, many of the changes I am about to c...
I'm sharing documentation with people not programming oriented. We agree we need a documentation repository but they don't like TortoiseSVN as it lacks some features that they consider key issues: Lock of files in such a way that everybody knows is blocked (more like VSS) To see files that are being changed by other people, even though...
I can right click any folder tied to SVN and say "Show log" it works. If I do the same thing for a file it says dir/subdir/subsubdir/default.aspx path not found error.. I couldn't figure out why.. ...
Let's say I have a user's object, I deleted a property and all things in the web project that used this property (admin pages that updated the property, data layer etc etc). Now I was told that we need that property, looking at Subversions log it seems the correct code is 3 revisions back. How can I go back, then somehow get any update...
We have certain configuration files which we want to be in version control as they specify project's default settings: search path, conditional defines etc. Unfortunately these files are also used by the IDE (Delphi 5) to hold temporary information. The IDE continually updates the files during development which causes Tortoise to flag th...
I have a folder under SVN control. And Since I will be creating files on a rapid basis, I want certain file types to be added, and certain file types to be ignored automatically, right after the moment the file is created. An example would be I want to commit a folder that contains sln, csproj, and cs type of extension to the source con...
I have installed svn console client from these binaries - subversion.tigris.org/getting.html#windows - 1.5.6, 1.6.4, 1.6.5. But no release seems to work. Just it can't checkout from any repo (code.gjangoproject.com; code.google.com): svn couldn't connect to server. There is bug on debian - http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bu...
I'm trying to create and follow best practices for versioning control and came across a reference to atomic commits in subversion. Since I've never heard of this action, I have a few questions about it. What's its purpose? When should it be used? How is it different than a normal commit? Is it available to TortoiseSVN users? If so, h...
Hi all, When updating my checked out directory with TortoiseSVN, some subfolders are listed as "Skipped" even though I know there are updates. Even if I try to update that folder alone it will say "Skipped", but still sit there and download MBs of updates. Has anyone else seen this? -Cole ...
I'm currently using TortoiseSVN to do a merge of two branches and I've found that its not smart enough to handle a specific merging senario. In one branch I have a method as follows: MyMethod(parameter1, parameter2, parameter3) In the other branch I have the same method as follows: MyMethod(parameter1, parameter2, parameter4) Tort...
I use Tortoise svn along with about 20 others at our site and all have an ongoing issue with it. Whenever you choose any command (update, commit, or ANY item of the right-click menu) there is almost always an initial lack of repsonse from the software. That is, it hourglasses for a few seconds and then does nothing. So you repeat the req...
I installed Tortoise SVN and configured it with Aptana Studio. When I right-click on the folder that I have added into Tortoise repository, it shows the Check-Out option, but not the Check-In option. Why? Even in Aptana IDE, it is not showing Check-In. ...
