At the root of my d: drive, TortoiseSVN is showing the question mark decorators on all the folders. The d: drive is not a SVN working copy. How do I remove the decorators?
I am using TortoiseSVN and I have a SVN repository organized in this way:
folder1
folder2
trunk
tag
branches
folder3
trunk
tag
branches
folder4
folder5
trunk
tag
branches
I would like to know if there is a way to checkout only trunk directories, keeping the entire tree under the versioning control:
folder1
folder2
trunk
folder3
trunk
folder4
folder5
trunk
In this way I can update all trunks with a single update command on folder1, without updating tags and branches which can be full of data.
I am looking for an encrypted version control system . Basically I would like to
-have all files encrypted locally before sending to the server. the server should never receive any file or data unencrypted.
-Every other feature should work pretty much the same way as SVN or CVS does today.
Can anyone recommend something like this? I did a lot of searches but I cant find anything.
Hi,
I have successfully setup Subversion repositories using SVNParentPath. But I would like to control the view of repositories list based on user access permission. Example User A only can access repository A and repository B. So when he browse to SVN url he only can see repository A and repository B. Others repositories are invisible for him.
is that anyway to work it out?
Has anyone had any success importing TFS 2008 history into a new Mercurial repository?
The only possible solution I've found to date is to go TFS - svn - hg using tfs2svn and then using the Convert Extension but I haven't tried this yet.
So, after a while of researching what SVN system should I use, I end up creating a project in Google Code.. thing is, that ANYONE can habe access to my repository, and is NOT what I want :)
So, I'm looking for a "private Google Code" code hosting web.
I found out that Bitbucket and Assembla are good, but.. any opinions?
Thx!
I want to learn how to write shell scripts.
Particularly I want to write a svn post-commit script to upload files from a test server to a production server. I am sure I will want to write more as I get more into it.
I have very little linux/unix knowledge. Can anyone recommend a good book?
The only source control I ever used was SourceGear Vault on my local machine. I need to put a new project on a svn server I got at beanstalkapp. I installed tortoiseSVN and AnkhSVN. I successfully connected everything, I see 3 folders:
branches
tags
trunks
I created my project and I want to attach it to the server, which of these folders do I select? What is the use of the these folders?
Hi,
I am getting this error while while giving this command:
cvs2svn --trunkonly --svnrepo /path/to/new/svn /path/to/existed/cvs/repo
The error i am getting is
Error summary:
ERROR: No RCS files found
Are you absolutely certain you are pointing cvs2svn
at a CVS repository?
I'm pretty used to how to do CVS merges in Eclipse, and I'm otherwise happy with the way that both Subclipse and Subversive work with the SVN repository, but I'm not quite sure how to do merges properly.
When I do a merge, it seems to want to stick the merged files in a seperate directory in my project rather than overwriting the old files that are to be replaced in the merge, as I am used to in CVS.
The question is not particular to either Subclipse or Subversive.
Thanks for the help!
Is there a way in TortoiseSVN - without the regular svn client binaries being installed on the system - to detect an orphaned checkout's revision number?
"Orphaned" meaning that the source it was checked out from no longer exists.
I have CVS checkout files. I am trying to migrate into SVN repository keeping the history of CVS.How can I get the information for its migration from the CVS checkout files so that i can keep track of CVS repository?
I'd like to learn other people workflow when using either SVN or GIT.
Please describe your strategy to handle the following tasks:
Implement a feature
Fixing bugs (during development and deployed app)
Code Review
Refactoring code (post code-review)
Incorporate patches
Releasing the newer version of your app (desktop, web, mobile, would you treat them differently?)
Feel free to organize your answer not grouped by the tasks but grouped by whatever you think is relevant but please organize it by VCS/DVCS (please don't mix them).
Thank you.
I'd like to have a version control server (preferably SVN) accessible on the internet without having to host my own (linux) server. Setting up a home server ala DynDNS is not really an option.
Can you have non-public (maybe single-user) projects on one of the OSS project hosting sites? Or are there alternatives?
I had a look at Google Code. But that looked very public to me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated :-)
Hi all,
I am trying to get a latest version of a particular file from the repo. SVN UPDATE doesnt overwrite my local working copy.
Actually I have the latest version from the Repository (eg revision 98). After Checkout I made some changes to the file and now I want to get rid of those local changes and get the copy from the repository (which is still at revision 98). How can i do this on Linux machine???
duplicate: How do I sync the SVN revision number with my ASP.NET web site?
How can you automatically import the latest build/revision number in subversion?
The goal would be to have that number visible on your webpage footer like SO does.
Hi,
I'm in a team that all members have VS2008 installed on their machine, we have tortois svn as source control system.
Is there a solution that I can work with them with VS2010 installed on my machine? Or I have to install VS2008 to work with the other members?
thanks.
It sometimes happens to me that I forget to include a file in a changeset (i.e. a commit of a number of changed files that belong together, e.g. "Fixes bug #45")
I will usually just make a second commit with the same commit message.
Is there a clever and simple way to add the "latecomer" to the first commit somehow? Without svn dumping and svndumpfilter ing?
Why do build servers poll for changes instead of SVN firing off an event (or a post-commit step) that tells the build server to start a build? It seems terribly inefficient to poll for changes, especially when the number of projects increases and the polling period is set to a very low value (for example, 30 seconds).
I want to learn how to write shell scripts.
Particularly I want to write a svn post-commit script to upload files from a test server to a production server. I am sure I will want to write more as I get more into it.
I have very little linux/unix knowledge. Can anyone recommend a good book?
I have a task:
"Find base revision: select latest SVN revision that has message "TRANSLATION_BASE_EN_NO". If tag was found - get all the resources from that revision"
How can I read messages, and search for the revision I need?
I want to see a piece of code of course. In C# (vs2008)
Thanks
I tried to find out how to move my working copy. I know SVN move can be used to move files and folders inside your working copy but what about the working copy itself? I want to move it because I created a branch in a folder location that's different from my branch and had updated therefore all my .NET project references. So when I go to merge back to the mainline trunk I get a bunch of tree conflicts.
I'm trying to set up Subversion on Ubuntu Linux. It seems to be working, except that when I made one change and tried svn status, I found about 100 files had been changed, in the .metadata directory.
My ~/.subversion/config file currently contains the following line:
global-ignores = *.o *.lo *.la *.al .libs *.so *.so.[0-9]* *.a *.pyc *.pyo *.rej *~ .*.swp .DS_Store
What do I need to add to ignore the .metadata files?
The directory under consideration is used by Eclipse for Python development using PyDev, if that matters.
We are migrating from Clearcase to another VCS (probably either SVN or Mercurial). For companies that have made this transition, what factors did they find important in selecting another VCS tool, and what practices did they find eased the transition?
