Hi Mark,
I've never used SVN myself, but have you tried the <svn-update> task in
NAnt-contrib? Might be easier that <exec>.

Subject: [NAnt-users] <exec> and <regex>
Hi.
I'm new to nant, and I'm trying to port some java/ant tasks we'd done to it.
Since we use svn as our source control, I'm having to do the update with
exec. To get the revision updated to, I'm sifting through the svn output.
Under ant, I redirected the svn output to a property using a filterchain and
then looked for certain patterns (turns out to be in the last line).
Just stumbling along here, it seems that I have to direct the svn output to
a file in nant, then use loadfile to get it into a property then use a
<regex> on the whole thing. Is that the best way to do it?
I was having the damnedest time getting it to deal with the fact that the
property now had multiple lines in it when the regex was applied. I put
options="Multiline" but it still couldn't find anything if I had $ in the
pattern. That seems more of a C# pattern issue, but I thought I'd ask about
the general approach.
Thanks
-Mark
