Great, please see
http://subversion.apache.org/docs/community-guide/general.html#patches

You should discuss the approach you want to take to fix this on the
dev@ list before putting too much work into a patch. That way, if there
are any concerns about the approach they can get resolved upfront,
before a lot of work has been done. Please start a new thread on the
dev@ list to discuss your approach. Thanks!

Hi, Dev list , I want to fix random sort of svn status and svn diff, on
recent code of svn, it just put a sort somewhere, could someone point me
the directory in the source code, where is the code of svn frontend
commands like diff and status ? 

Thanks,

relation to minfo-cnt bug Re: predecessor count for the root node-revision is wrong message

[Daniel Shahaf]

Jason,

I've learnt yesterday something new about the minfo-cnt corruption bug:
it can manifest not only as absurdly high values (on the order of 2**70),
but as far smaller wrong increments too (such as increment of 172
instead of of 0 on one occasion).

Could you determine whether said bug has occurred in your history?  You
can do that by duplicating your repository using svnsync or dump|load,
running dump-noderev.pl on / of both copies at the same revisions, and
comparing the minfo-cnt values.

I would be interested in knowing whether they are equal between the two
copies.

Thanks,

Daniel

Who from?  Why?  What is the problem you are trying to solve by hiding the

Strictly speaking: "no" but you can use path-based control to restrict access 
which is almost the same.  Have you looked into that?

Before we go any further, please upgrade to the current release of
TSVN. There have been a number of fixes made since 1.7.1 and this may
be one of them.

Add generic MOTD to hooks scripts ?

[Phil Pinkerton]

Looking for a way to send or display a Notice like a MOTD ( Message of the day 
) whenever any repository is accessed.

For example there will be a major change in Repository locations. Some projects 
already have pre and post commit hook scripts. What I want to do is advise the 
user who accesses their Repository of that change.

perhaps adding an email or message to be sent automagically to whoever accesses 
the repository ?

"Wish list'  would be a script easily modified and propagated to all repository 
hook directories 

Ideas ?  Suggestions ( besides read the book  )

Thanks!

I've just reverted to the CollabNet build because I found that the
WANdisco builds have a problem with redirected output.

When the output of svn pl -v is redirected, the pathnames are printed
together before the properties, making the output all but useless.
I did not check if this bug affects other commands as well.

Re: Call svn cat for all files modified or added in a given revision

Hello all,

Using svn cat I can see the state of a file at a given revision.
As it turns out, I have had in the past some files that were commit with
inconsistent line endings and that are making analysis tools stop because of
this.

Can you change analysis tools to one that can handle this condition?

Alas no, it's what ohloh.net is using...


What I want to do is find which (file, revision) pairs are impacted so that
I can go back in the past and fix those invalid commits (using dump/reload).

However, I'm having a hard time finding a way to extract a list of modified
or added files in a given revision so that I could give that list to the svn
cat command that stops with an error when the above situation arises.
And then, once this works, I'd put all this in a loop going from the first
revision to the last one.

svn log --verbose -rX will give you a list of all paths touched in
revision X. You'll need to do some parsing to extract just the paths
vs. the other log data. If you're handy with XML, you can use svn log
--verbose --xml -rX and then use XPath to extract just the paths.

To parse the output of svn log --verbose for this project, look for
any line starting with one or more letters and/or spaces, followed by
a space, followed by a slash. From that space to the end of the line
is the path that was touched. The regex should be something close to
this:

\b[\w\s]+(\/*)\b

Thanks for the hints, I'll try to manage something out.

Sorry, not a feature present in Subversion. a) there are no hooks that are run 
when the repository is merely accessed (only hooks that run when the repository 
is modified); b) there is no way for a hook to send a message to the user 
unless it is an error message to report a failure.

Instead, communicate with your users via other means. Send them an email or 
instant message. Or post the notice on your web site.

I'd suggest filing a bug report there then. Depending on the analysis
being done, whitespace might be something that can be ignored or
relaxed to stop this from breaking.

Re: Subversion log format in Japanese

[Berin Babcock-McConnell]

(2012年03月21日 00:43), Stefan Sperling wrote:

There is this comment in fr.po:

# Hmmm... what about "%x" (preferred date representation in locale)
# instead?


Yes, I used %x when I fixed this on my system because it nicely produces 
most of what I wanted.  Unfortunately it doesn't produce everything. 
Nor does it appear to produce the right thing across locales (more on 
this below).




I don't really know either. This subject is new to me, too.

You're right that there is precedent for changing the format string
in localised text and also re-arrange the format specifiers (ko.po,
pl.po, and zh_CN.po).

So as a first step, we could fix the format string in ja.po as you
suggest. Do you want to send a patch for that?
See http://subversion.apache.org/docs/community-guide/general.html#patches
and http://subversion.apache.org/docs/community-guide/l10n.html for
background information about translations.

We could also investigate if %x is acceptable and works as expected
everywhere.

Choose whichever path forward you prefer :)


I reexamined the documentation for strftime() today and I don't think 
there is any one format string that will produce the correct result 
across all locales.  I also tried to have a look at actual output (using 
the date command though...) for %x, %Ex, %c, and %Ec for the locales for 
which Subversion has localizations and the results did not consistently 
match the localized human_timestamp_format_suffix strings...


So, it seems like we have no choice but maintain localized 
human_timestamp_format_suffix as is currently done.


With this in mind I will prepare a patch for the ja.po file (although I 
need to attend to some other things this evening so I expect to do this 
in the next day or so).


Beyond fixing the ja.po file, your suggestion for a new feature to make 
the format string configurable seems nice too but I imagine there would 
need to be some discussion on the best way to do this first...

OK, then I'm willing to assume there isn't already a similar report.

Yes please.

If you want, you could also contribute a regression test for this ---
see http://subversion.apache.org//docs/community-guide/general#patches
and subversion/tests/[cmdline/]README in trunk.

Problem with Python bindings to SVN 1.7.4 on Windows

[Brian Neal]

Hello -

I'm trying to upgrade a Subversion and Trac install running on Windows
Server 2003 sp2.

I've installed Subversion 1.7.4 from the .msi file found here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32svn/files/1.7.4/

I'm also using the Python 2.7 bindings found in that same directory
(svn-win32-1.7.4_py27.zip).

I've unzipped the Python binding into C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages.

Trac isn't able to load the bindings.

Here is a troubleshooting step and the output:

E:\Trac_Data>python
Python 2.7.2 (default, Jun 12 2011, 15:08:59) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win
32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from svn import client
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 1, in 
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\svn\client.py", line 26, in 
from libsvn.client import *
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\libsvn\client.py", line 25, in 
_client = swig_import_helper()
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\libsvn\client.py", line 21, in swig_import
_helper
_mod = imp.load_module('_client', fp, pathname, description)
ImportError: DLL load failed: The operating system cannot run %1

Does anyone have any ideas? I noticed there are no DLL files in the
libsvn folder in the bindings. In the past, with older versions of
Subversion, I've had to rename the libsvn/*.dll files to *.pyd to get
stuff to work. Now there is just *.pyd files in libsvn.

Thank you,
BN

I'm sure something similar came up last week, did you check the list archive?  
There was something about two files being missing in a similar scenario...

Also, have you tried copying *.pyd to *.dll to see if having both helps?  My 
understanding is recent versions of python (certainly 2.7) will only load .PYDs 
but something else might need .DLLs (I'm guessing here).  I seem to remember 
that with 2.6 I needed both.

I have solved my problem by copying libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll from
the Subversion\bin folder to C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\libsvn
folder. I got this tip via a google search on the Trac users list. I
don't understand this, but thought I would follow-up here on this list
in case it helps other poor dopes who have to run on Windows.

Thinking about this, I have the subversion bin folder in my path, I suspect 
that it is not in yours?  I assume therefore you probably use TortoiseSVN (and 
why not) which does not (AFAIK) need svn in the path so does not add it...

I'm doing all this work on the server side. Yes, C:\Program
Files\Subversion\bin is on the path. It is needed for Apache to find
the SVN binaries. It is strange that I also need to copy those 2 DLL's
to the Python bindings folder.

Thanks,
BN

Do you have another libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll in some other folder 
that is before Subversion\bin in your path ?

If that's the case and these are older versions there might be trouble.

Why yes, those DLL's do exist in an earlier folder on the path!

Is there anything that can be done to avoid a problem like that in the
future? Perhaps a note in the readme? I have noticed that Bitnami and
Collabnet dump all the SVN and Python binding DLL's into the same
folder. I'm not a windows / dll expert so I don't know if that is a
good solution or not.

Thanks for the help. And thanks very much for making those Windows
binaries available.

In many cases this is the preferred way of deploying DLLs, alternative
is to use WinSXS-technices, which needs support by the installation
packages. Deploying all DLLs of an application with the application is
the most easiest way, especially without installers.

That is a good solution.
You can always have the habit of downloading the zip file with the 
Subversion binaries (svn-win32-1.7.4.zip) and extract it (or at least 
the dll:s) in the same folder where you have the Python bindings.

Using info2 in perl

[Jim Searle]

I am currently using the perl api info and diff_summarize methods, but
I need to switch to info2 and diff_summarize2 since they support the
'depth' option.  But I can't figure out the correct syntax, does
anyone have an example?

Thanks,

% perl -MSVN::Client -le '$s = SVN::Client->new();
  $s->info2( "", 1,"HEAD",

 print "$target: ", $info_t->URL },

...
A/D/H/psi: file:///tmp/svn/r1/trunk/A/D/H/psi
iota: file:///tmp/svn/r1/trunk/iota

How I built this:

- Follow the docs of the svn_client_info2() C API (in doxygen, or in 
svn_client.h)

- Drop the ctx parameter

- Drop any baton parameters

- When in doubt about some object --- print it.  ref() and Dumper() help too.

HTH,
