I have created a feature branch off of the trunk for my project and the feature branch requires some project file configuration changes for it to work.

I've just added a new user to a SVN repository. They have read/write perms on the repo. They also have file perms (up to Modify, including Write and Create) on the Repo directory. When the user tries to add a file to the project, or commit a file, they get a 405 response (note: not a 401). They seem to be authenticating correctly, but ...
I have a few files that were part of an update that were mistakenly committed to the main trunk before they were ready. Is there a way to 'undo' this checkout and roll the repository back a version, while still keeping the changed file in my checkout? I'm using tortiseSVN ver 1.6.5 on Windows XP, if that makes any difference. example:...
I have two checkouts of one trunk of a project via SVN. One is the 'Feature Checkout', which includes work on new features/upgrades, that will rolled out to production code every few months. The second is the 'Support Checkout', which is for any small day-to-day bug fixes that arise. My Feature Checkout already contains a lot of code th...
I posted this question on superuser.com but I wasn't sure if it was appropriate there.. Anyway: Hi, I'm coming from a TortoiseSVN background and decided to give TortoiseHg a try.. One thing I got really used to with TortoiseSVN was the SVN Repo-Explorer, which worked quite similarly to Windows Explorer.. However, when I tried to use T...
I've got a website project under version control that relies on files from an unversioned directory on the same server via Symbolic Links. I'm currently storing the symbolic links in the repository. The idea is that if someone checks out a working copy on to the same server they can edit and test the working copy of the project before c...

I'm using the VisualSVN server, with TortoiseSVN and AnkhSVN in Visual Studio. I have a Trunk to which some devs on other teams are commiting various small changes on a regular basis. I have a Branch on which a fairly major new development is being built. As a regular weekly routine I've been merging the Trunk into this Branch. All s...

I have read Branching / Tagging twice now. I cannot seem to grasp this idea. I want to have a a good understanding of branching, to prevent errors to the main line. Since I am a visual learner, can anybody diagram the concept of SVN Branching? Or is it possible in plain English to describes the concepts? lets say i have 3 developers...
I'm using TortoiseSVN for the version control on my project. I have been working in a branch of my repository without trouble. Then I tried to create a sub-branch of my working branch (i.e. project_repository/branches/original_branch/sub_branch). That created a directory for my sub-branch in the original branch's folder structure. (Oops....
If I have a development area that I deleted files from a certain folder/directory, when I import them back into the repository on the server, is svn supposed to remove the deleted files on the server too? For example, I have directory "home" in home I had index.php. This is all on my development machine. At the moment it matches my sv...

However I want to evaluate the software. I wanted to try out the externals feature but I'm stumped at the first hurdle. If I enter svn:externa...
I've inherited a Subversion repository that has several years worth of feature branches merging to and from trunk. It started as a 1.4 repo, went to 1.5, and is now 1.6. Lotsa history. Unfortunately, it's developed some cruft, and reintegration merges no longer work. I was looking into it, and it appears that this has something to do...
