How to prefer ipv4 over ipv6?
Can one configure the subversion clients to prefer ipv4 over ipv6 when both route to the target server? I presume, if so, that it would be done via --config-option, yes? I'm on 1.7.5, with neon for webdav. I see that svnserve prefers ipv4 and has an option to instead prefer ipv6, but I haven't found anything for the clients, yet.

I was looking for a client invocation argument. The DNS has nothing to do with it. I have both v4 adn v6 routes to the 'net, but the v4 is faster. Support for the de-facto -4 and -6 args would be nice. I'll have to patch the src for it. Thanks for the confirming that. That will save me some time. -JimC -- James Cloos OpenPGP: 1024D/ED7DAEA6
snvsync issues
I occasionally get syncs which are stuck because something killed the process before it could release its lock. The only way I could get past that was to edit revprops/0/0 and remove the svn:sync-lock lines. Is there a command which will remove such stale svnsync locks? Neither svn, svnadmin nor svnsync seem to be able to do so. Or even to list such locks. Several of the remote repos which I'd like to sync fail part way through with errors like: svnsync: E210008: Error while replaying commit Git-svn is able to clone such repos, including the commits which svnsync cannot replay, so it doesn't seem to be due to any corruption. Is there any way past the error, without alternate access to the remote? -JimC -- James Cloos OpenPGP: 0x997A9F17ED7DAEA6
