SVN - Version Control
Checking out a fresh copy from the remote repo,
svn checkout URL local_target_dir_path --username name@company.com --password password_for_repo
Add files to svn repo,
svn add file_path
svn add directory_path/pattern*
Exporting a file from SVN repo,
svn export -r 5 "file:///D:/svnrepo/repo1/CoolApp/cpp/app.cpp" D:\Projects\CoolApp\app.cpp `
--username YOUR_USER_NAME --password YOUR_PASS
Removing files,
svn remove file_path
Finally, commit, unlike git/hg in svn a commit pushes files to server as well,
svn commit D:\Projects\CoolApp --username YOUR_USER_NAME --password YOUR_PASS -m "my change summary"
Also we can do,
svn update
svn info
svn status
Running SVN Server Locally
We complete these parts with the help of svnadmin
tool.
I used to use "CollabNet Subversion" to accomplish this. The software placed svnadmin binary in C:\Program Files\CollabNet\Subversion Client
.
Using svnadmin
we are able to create repositories locally.
svnadmin create "D:\svnrepo\repo1"
Initial import of a project into this repo,
svn import D:\Projects\CoolApp "file:///D:\svnrepo\repo1\CoolApp" -m "Initial import"
Later, to checkout from this local repo,
svn checkout "file:///D:\svnrepo\repo1\CoolApp" D:\Projects\CoolApp `
--username YOUR_USER_NAME --password YOUR_PASS
If svn info
shows an outdated local repo, we should update the checkout,
svn update
