Re: directory problem on 'svn ci'

Well, if you wish: What i did is quite simple. I upgraded my subversion installation and committing stopped working as it used to do. I _know_, by sheer evidence of the svn-commit.tmp file being "physically" there, that it is created one directory level above where it was used to be created!

svnserve + SASL: Only works with plaintext 'userPassword', so what's the point?

I'm attempting to setup svnserve with SASL support on my Slackware 13.1 server and after some trial and error I'm able to get it to work with the configuration listed at the end of this post. You'll notice that the output of sasldblistusers2 shows my test user as having both an encrypted cmusas

Re: directory problem on 'svn ci'

You haven't actually stated what IS happening, just what you THINK is happening. (Most of your assumptions regarding what should/shouldn't be in cwd are wrong.) The short answer is, svn runs 'gvim /path/to/file' and then reads /path/to/file. The cwd isn't involved. Feel free to follow up with m

directory problem on 'svn ci'

Hello everybody, Today I encountered an unusual behaviour with my newly updated Subversion version (Win32, version 1.6.15): Just as always, a simple commit, using 'svn ci', still fires up my configured editor to edit a corresponding svn-commit.tmp file. The problem is, that this file gets cre

Agreed, but another benefit of any Unix OS is the ability to use symbolic links. They aren't in Windows and they give some added stability to some things you may do such as link a specific version name to a more generic name you use in the build script. This makes maintenance long term a lot e
