How to tell Subversion to display binary files using an external program?
- by lamcro
I have some code which, like java, is stored in a binary format, and I have the applications to display and modify this code setup in the Subversion's config file.
But when I run svn diff for these file, Subversion prevents me
===================================================================
Cannot display: file marked as a binary type.
svn:mime-type = application/octet-stream
I can still view them, but only with the --force argument
Since all the files in the repository are of this binary code, how can I permanently force subversion to open the files for diff or edit mode?
