I recently discussed with the kdesvn author, Rajko Albrecht, about the fact that kdesvn is currently unmaintained (and is on a SVN repo outside of kde.org).
This worries me, because my wife and her colleagues use it, and it will probably bitrot if nobody maintains it. Shall I import kdesvn into git.kde.org so that it can be maintained there? Or is the solution for the future, the SVN integration into dolphin? I gave it a try, and found it to be rather lacking. * A simple RMB / "svn update" in a large checkout creates a progress item with no details at all, there's no feedback for a very long time, until finally the "Subversion Helper" dialog pops up. kdesvn's similar menu action (in dolphin) has much nicer feedback. * With the new svn layout (no .svn subdir in every subdir, only one at the toplevel) there's no more svn operations available in subdirs (works with kdesvn's plugin). * But the main point is: kdesvn also provides a full mainwindow where one can perform more advanced operations such as moving files between dirs (and committing that to svn), etc. Are there alternatives I should consider, or is kdesvn the best solution and we should therefore ensure that it doesn't disappear? -- David Faure, fa...@kde.org, http://www.davidfaure.fr Working on KDE, in particular KDE Frameworks 5 >> Visit http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-devel#unsub to unsubscribe <<
