Re: subversion changes file permissions on commit
Does the file have any specific properties, such as svn:eol-style or svn:keywords?

Access Problem with Subversion
Hi all! I have a urgent problem with our subversion. I need to do a dump file, but I always get the answer, that I do not have access! But my user is administrator... Can you please help me?

I really need this export! At this point, it simply a file access issue. This really has nothing to do with subversion. If you have access to run the exe and write access to the target directory then you should be good. However, I think you need to specify the dump file name... svnadmin dump path_to_repo e:\backup\reponame.dump Not sure if that is the issue. BOb

Do you want to use `SVNParentPath` to serve a group of repositories without actually revealing the list of repo names? You should be able to do that be editing the style sheet to not list the actual names but then how are your users going to find their repos? I don't think so, because the XML data and the XSLT stylesheet are both sent to the browser which puts them together to display them; a user could easily circumvent a stylesheet by viewing the XML source directly. If you're using SVNParentPath but don't want to show the list of repositories, you simply don't set SVNListParentPath on. The directive Alias /repos /srv/svn/html matches all locations that *begin* with /repos; sounds like what you really want is to match only the locations /repos and /repos/ exactly. For that you should be able to use something like: AliasMatch ^/repos/?$ /srv/svn/html Or: RedirectMatch permanent ^/repos$ /repos/ AliasMatch ^/repos/$ /srv/svn/html If the index.html page in that directory references any assets (stylesheets, images) in the same folder they won't work because the AliasMatch doesn't know about them. You could either list those assets in the AliasMatch too, or just reference assets from elsewhere on your server.
Would reintegration still work the 2nd time after 1st reintegration only commits a partial list of changes
Hi All We like to reintegrate from bracnh to trunk and for unclear reasons some files are touched that we dont want to get into the trunk so that seems to indicate that the server thinks the password is correct, but there's some other error going on if we do a few reverts of a few files and directories before the commit and after our commit rev X to the trunk, and suppose we like to reintegrate using the same branch to the trunk, would reintegrate still work even after we apply --record-only rev X; We ask because we read somewhere on stackoverflow that if we do that, when we need to perform reintegration because of bad merges, then this subset of files in first commit would cause problems in 2nd reintegration even after applying --record-only on the branch Is there a problem with my scenario ? Thanks Sincerely
