Our repository size are increasing on daily basis, we were planed and removed unused tags in SVN. Tags are very cheap copies that take hardly any space: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.branchmerge.tags.html But still the size is not increased. And also whatever I have removed all those files are still persist in earlier version. Then there is no use of my removal. Correct. deleteing stuff in subversion does not remove the data, just removes the items from subsequent revisions. That is one of the main features of source code control... Suppose, I would like to do permanent removal in SVN, how can it possible and how to do permanent removal in SVN? You can dump the repository, run it through svndumpfilter and then reload the filtered dump into a new repository. http://svnbook.red- bean.com/en/1.7/svn.reposadmin.maint.html#svn.reposadmin.maint.tk.svn dumpfilter http://svnbook.red- bean.com/en/1.7/svn.reposadmin.maint.html#svn.reposadmin.maint.filteri ng If I do permanent removal, how I can take those files in case if it is require for future reference. Whilst filtering your dump, also create a different dump file with the stuff you don't want, then you can load it somewhere else in future if you want to. Please advise me with good practice. Your suggestion is more use to me. Personally I chose to go the multiple-repository route from the start, creating new repos under a parent path for all new projects. This makes it a lot easier to move stuff around (so long as the projects are not too intimately related, of course)... I have to say that I do not consider 100GB to be hugh these days (although disk prices have gone up somewhat recently due to the flooding in Thailand) but 1000GB disks are still relativley cheap?

Newer versions of Subversion store revisions in repositories more efficiently, but will not rewrite old revisions stored by older versions. For maximum space savings, dump and load, as Thorsten said below; this way, all revisions will be stored in the most efficient format. Depending on your current repository format, the repository can be packed and repository sharing can be used, some kind of deduplication which can reduce repository sizes if a lot of comparable or even identical files are checked in. To get maximum benefit of this a complete dump and load cycle of your repository is needed. http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.reposadmin.maint.html#svn.reposadmin.maint.diskspace The feature is called *representation* sharing, by the way.

Re: 'svnadmin verify' failed after hotcopy with 'svnadmin: E160004: Revision file (r2255) lacks trailing newline'
Daniel, Is your answer based on the knowledge of the code of the subversion server? Here are some details: 1. It is not Unix [cp(1)], the problem was on Windows 2. The disk looks fine (I ran chkdsk and looked at the SMART data). No errors in the Windows log files. 3. The svn repository did not change since the problem was detected and I compared the corrupt hot copy to a correct one. There are 7940 files in each. Of these, the contents of 28 files are not the same (file sizes are ok). These 28 files are of various sizes but the first one (2255) is rather large - 1.5 MB. The repository size is about 1GB. The data in the rev files of the bad copy is corrupted from positions 0x1000 (first and second file), 0x4000, 0, 0x1000, 0, 0, 0x4000, 0, 0, 0, 0x4000 etc. The corrupted file numbers are not sequential (2255 corrupted, 2256-2270 ok, 2271 corrupted). 4. Some antivirus software is running on the system. 5. The 'svnadmin hotcopy' which produced the corrupt copy returned 0 (success) to the script that called it. 6. The system might have been heavily loaded at the time the corrupt copy was made. It looks unlikely that 28 files were corrupted and no errors were logged by the OS. Do you still think is was a disk issue? Thanks, Dmitry PS The server is VisualSVN 2.5.2 (Subversion 1.7.2) on WinXP SP3.

hi folks,
Recently, we encountered a problem when checking out directories
frequently. But I am not sure whether is an issue or not.
Suppose that there is a svn address
https://10.38.90.34/app/tools/tags/ts/ts_stable_101_PD_BL, it's a tag
for https://10.38.90.34/app/tools/ts.
And there are some subdirectories under ts, let's call them ts_a, ts_b, ts_c...
So we can use command 'svn co
https://10.38.90.34/app/tools/tags/ts/ts_stable_101_PD_BL ./ts' to
checkout ts.
But, some times, one or more subdirectories were not checked out successfully.
What's really amazing is that the 'svn co' operation returned 0 and no
error message prompted, like that the subdirectories missing did not
exist.
I write a script to reproduce this problem, it happened about one or
two times in 1000 times.

Re: Fwd: svn miss to checkout one or more subdirectories and no error message
Subversion 1.6.5 is old. Is that the client or the server? Does the
problem happen with more recent versions? Are you using neon or serf?

You have a desktop which is pretending to be a server, and it may not be as reliable as a true server. Especially under stress.

[bug?] local file not shown as modified, if eol-style differs
Hi, consider the following steps: - checkout a file from SVN that has svn:eol-style=CRLF - verify that the file has CRLF line endings - convert the file to unix line endings using dos2unix, recode, etc. - verify that the file has LF line endings Now you observe the following: 1) svn diff shows nothing 2) svn status shows nothing 3) even after svn update, the LF line endings remain The only command I have found to actually restore the CRLF line endings is svn revert. I'm using subversion 1.6.17. Isn't the behaviour of subversion kind of odd? I mean, I wouldn't have set eol-style to something other than native if the line endings wouldn't matter to me. It is expected, that svn diff shows nothing. But it's odd that svn status doesn't even inform me that the local file has been altered - especially if the line endings of that file matter, I kind of depend on subversion to tell me about it. It would be another nice feature if subversion would not only ignore the line endings, but also restore the proper line endings (according to svn:eol-style) on demand (for example during an update). If restoring the line endings is not the responsibility of subversion, than what sense does it make to set eol-style to anything else than native? Regards, Sven

If you make a new hotcopy of the repository, is that corrupted as well? No. I've only got a corrupted hot copy once in the last two weeks (backups are daily). Before that the repository was hosted on another WinXP system with an earlier version of the Subversion server. I only added the call to verify the hot copy to the backup script recently so I do not know if the problem ever occurred with the repository on the other system. I'd be interested to know if svnadmin employs some memory buffer to hot-copy. The offsets where data corruption starts look like multiples of 0x1000 which is 4K. The NTFS cluster size on the disk is exactly 4K. If svnadmin just calls the OS to copy each file the problem should either be in the OS or the disk.
Re: Possible bug in 1.7: svn cleanup can't recover after a failed update (with 1.6 it was possible)
-dev@ list Johan, thanks for your help. See my comments below. Can you try if the following helps? $ svn update -r0 offendingdir Do the '--set-depth empty' trick (or '--set-depth exclude' ?) My bad, I should have mentioned that we had tried that after googling the issue, and before sending the email, unsuccessfully (svn: E155037: Previous operation has not finished; run 'cleanup' if it was interrupted) This is the reason why I believe the local repo is in a non-recoverable state, because any command request a clean up, but a clean up fails. Even if the above workaround does the trick, I still agree with you that this is a legitimate issue (it would still be very hard to recover). I think you should file this in the issue tracker [...] OK, I'll wait a couple of days in case someone has more insights... issue tracker at tigris.org is still the current one).[...] Good to know! I wasn't aware of this... I'll post it there. Thanks again for the help, Regards,
Applications for SVN.
Hi all, I'm installing some versions control system at work and I'd like to have so suggestions about it. We've decided to use SVN, but it will be nice having some web application that it will allow developers to create and manage their own projects. It will avoid svn commands manually execution for any new project we create. It will be perfect if there is some web server application which allows projects management, installed in same machine as svn server. Then, the developers could create and manage their projects from any machine by web browser. I really don't know if there is some software with this feature. I've looked for some, I found viewvc and svn-web-admin. You advice me use one of them or any other? I will appreciate your help. Leonardo

I'm using subversion 1.6.17. Isn't the behaviour of subversion kind of odd? I mean, I wouldn't have set eol-style to something other than native if the line endings wouldn't matter to me. It is expected, that svn diff shows nothing. But it's odd that svn status doesn't even inform me that the local file has been altered - especially if the line endings of that file matter, I kind of depend on subversion to tell me about it. It would be another nice feature if subversion would not only ignore the line endings, but also restore the proper line endings (according to svn:eol-style) on demand (for example during an update). When you changed EOL characters, did the file timestamps change?

RE: Space Constrain
Our Subversion server is RedHat Linux. We have lot of repositories which is maintaining in Linux server. Each repositories taking huge size in our server. Our Maximum size limit is 100GB, but the size almost reached 98%. We are in trouble when we are using repository in Tortoise SVN. We are getting space constrain issues. For temporary purpose we deleting unused repositories in Server. Even though the size in increasing daily basis. Can anyone suggest me, how to save space. Is that any good way to keep it SVN server without space constrain? Is that any way to compress and reduce the repositories size without any impact? Please advise me with good practice. Your suggestion is more use to me. I think the main way to keep repos small is to NOT put binary files in it. Of course, depending on your usage that may not be practical. I think the majority opinion is hard drives are cheap. I know some people here have recommended some binary versioning systems that only maintains a certain number of versions back and delete older ones. I don't recall the names. Someone else can chime in with one or two. You could also implement something like that yourself with a build script. Store your binaries in a folder tree with a latest that is a symlink of the most recent version of the binaries. This way your references and such don't need to change for every version. Another option is to store binaries in a separate repository that you can archive and recreate monthly or quarterly, or whatever. Then you can use externals in your projects to reference them. BOb
RE: switch to ignore files that have not been checked in?
I'm trying to add properties to a bunch of files that have a common file extension, but are not the only files in the directory/directories. I would like to run something like: svn propset svn:needs-lock '*' *.png *.jpg *.vsd The problem is that I have a number of temporary files in the working directory that match the pattern but are not and should not be checked in. The problem with using the convenience of shell patterns is that subversion aborts as soon as it processes a file that is not already checked in. It also aborts even if a file or directory has the svn:ignore property set. I don't know of an easy way to match all the files that match a shell pattern and are also already checked in. (Which would be a clunky workaround for not having the following:) I'd like to use a switch such as: svn --ignore-non-checked-in-files propset svn:needs-lock '*' *.png *.jpg *.vsd Does such a switch already exist? Such a switch would tell subversion commands to silently ignore files and directories that have not been checked in. The opposite already exists. If I run svn add *.png, the svn add command runs, but complains harmlessly if a file has already been checked in. svn add does not halt if it encounters a file that has already been checked in. Can you not just do a clean checkout and run the command. This way there won't be any un-versioned files. BOb

No problem detected. If you make a new hotcopy of the repository, is that corrupted as well? No. I've only got a corrupted hot copy once in the last two weeks (backups are daily). Before that the repository was hosted on another WinXP system with an earlier version of the Subversion server. I only added the call to verify the hot copy to the backup script recently so I do not know if the problem ever occurred with the repository on the other system. I'd be interested to know if svnadmin employs some memory buffer to hot-copy. The offsets where data corruption starts look like multiples of 0x1000 which is 4K.

This really, really, really looks like a hardware problem or an OS-related corruption. I agree with Andy Levy - Windows XP is not a good OS to use as a server; it's 10 years old and they still haven't bothered to fix bugs that I can invoke on a daily basis (most commercial backup programs will cause a Windows service to go into an infinite loop). Upgrade if you possibly can. Linux is free and runs on cheap hardware, so I recommend it rather than try to find a Windows version that is inexpensive but can still act as a server. The fact that the problem is intermittent also points to something outside of Subversion. -- David Chapman dcchap...@acm.org Chapman Consulting -- San Jose, CA Software Development Done Right. www.chapman-consulting-sj.com

For collabnet or wandisco, I went to their website briefly and did not get the open source project. I guess that they mainly focus on providing a client side serviece. I could be wrong.

You run the testing cycle on a local git working copy, where local changes can be made, recorded, and discarded. You then push the binaries, when needed, to the Subversion repository. Most binaries in an auto-build or development environment are not worth keeping. This allows you to publish only those binaries that you *want* to be reference binaries, in a more flexible fashion than most Subverson repositories, especially because the working local branches and tags need never be published to the main repo and clutter it up. I've used this successfully for environments where a central Subversion reository was mandated by policy, history, or the desire for centralized source control.
