svn log: --search and --limit interaction
Hello! I've noticed that Subversion 1.8 introduces very useful --search parameter. However, currently (version 1.8.4-SlikSvn-1.8.4-X64) --search is applied after --limit, sometimes effectively returning less entries than specified by --limit, even if more entries are available. I believe it's a bug. Your opinions? Best wishes, Andrey Paramonov -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
Re: servers ssl-authority-files with svn lib
Hi Stefan!
Thanks for your response.
You are right. Code would make things much clearer ;-). Sorry for that.
OK. So here is the constructor of my simple client.
CODE START:
SimpleSVNClient::SimpleSVNClient(const string configDir)
{
if(!aprPoolInitFlag)
{
apr_initialize();
apr_pool_initialize();
aprPoolInitFlag = true;
}
m_pool = svn_pool_create(0);
if(0 == m_pool)
{
...error handling...
}
const char* configDir_temp = 0;
m_configDir = configDir;
if(configDir.length() 0)
{
configDir_temp = configDir.c_str();
}
svn_config_ensure(configDir_temp, m_pool);
apr_array_header_t* providers = apr_array_make(m_pool, 8,
sizeof(svn_auth_provider_object_t *));
svn_auth_provider_object_t *provider;
svn_client_get_simple_provider(provider, m_pool);
*(svn_auth_provider_object_t **)apr_array_push(providers) = provider;
svn_client_get_username_provider(provider, m_pool);
*(svn_auth_provider_object_t **)apr_array_push(providers) = provider;
// add ssl providers
// file first then prompt providers
svn_client_get_ssl_server_trust_file_provider(provider, m_pool);
*(svn_auth_provider_object_t **)apr_array_push(providers) = provider;
svn_client_get_ssl_client_cert_file_provider(provider, m_pool);
*(svn_auth_provider_object_t **)apr_array_push(providers) = provider;
svn_client_get_ssl_client_cert_pw_file_provider(provider, m_pool);
*(svn_auth_provider_object_t **)apr_array_push(providers) = provider;
svn_auth_baton_t* ab;
svn_auth_open(ab, providers, m_pool);
if(0 == ab)
{
...error handling...
}
// initialize m_ctx structure
svn_client_create_context(m_ctx, m_pool);
// get the config based on the configDir passed in
svn_config_get_config(m_ctx-config, configDir_temp, m_pool);
// tell the auth functions where the config is
svn_auth_set_parameter(ab, SVN_AUTH_PARAM_CONFIG_DIR, configDir_temp);
m_ctx-auth_baton = ab;
}
CODE END
And here is the checkout method of the class (SVNRevision is a wrapper for
the svn_revision):
CODE START:
long int SimpleSVNClient::checkout(const string url, const string
destPath, const BMSVNRevision revision,
const bool recursive, const bool
ignoreExt, const SVNRevision pegRevision)
{
int ret;
apr_pool_t* pool = svn_pool_create(0);
if(0 == pool)
{
...error handling...
}
const char* int_path = svn_path_internal_style(destPath.c_str(),
pool);
svn_revnum_t revnum = 0;
svn_error_t* err = svn_client_checkout2(revnum, url.c_str(),
destPath.c_str(), pegRevision.getSVNRevision(),
revision.getSVNRevision(),
recursive, ignoreExt, m_ctx, pool);
ret = revnum;
if(err)
{
...error handling...
}
svn_pool_destroy(pool);
return ret;
}
CODE END
The whole thing crashes when svn_client_checkout2 is called.
In between I set the login of course:
CODE START
void SimpleSVNClient::setLogin(const string username, const string
password)
{
m_username = username;
m_password = password;
svn_auth_baton_t* ab = m_ctx-auth_baton;
svn_auth_set_parameter(ab, SVN_AUTH_PARAM_DEFAULT_USERNAME,
m_username.c_str());
svn_auth_set_parameter(ab, SVN_AUTH_PARAM_DEFAULT_PASSWORD,
m_password.c_str());
}
CODE END
Bye, Kai

Hi there!
I am using the binary package of Subversion library version 1.7.9 in
my
software project.
I have written a simple client that I use in an other software to
simply
checkout from a repository and update it to a specified revision
automatically.
Due to the certificate of the server, that must be accepted by the
client, I set the ssl-authority-files to a local certificate file.in
the
servers file of subversion.
I tested if it works right with the Tortoise svn-client and it does
the
job. The entry is something like ssl-authority-files=
C:/svn.hostname.de.crt
If I try to checkout with the library the whole software crashes
without
any error messages.
It seems the entry in the servers file ,makes my simple client
crashing.
As I mentioned the Tortoise works fine with the entry
ssl-authority-files.
The simple client library works fine, when I accepted the certificate
permenantly in the Tortoise before I checkout with the lib.
Do I need to activate something in my library to ensure the proper
usage
of the servers file entry

I believe it's a bug. Your opinions? Hello Андрей, This is because there is no server-side support for --search yet. --search filtering is done within the client. However, --limit does have server-side support, so the server sends log entries only up to the specified limit. The client can apply its --search filter only to entries sent by the server. Protocol and server-side changes would need to be made to improve this situation. This is possible, but so far, nobody has done the necessary work. As usual, we welcome patches.
MOD_DAV_SVN + SVNSERVE_WRAPPER + file system rights
Hello I know this topic has been discussed many times but... I am very happy with the SSH + 'svnserve' access to my repositories, however due to firewall issues I need access through HTTP as well. What I do not want is to set up a 2nd authentication / authorization database. Here is my current config HTTP config: [ ... LoadModule authz_unixgroup_module libexec/apache22/mod_authz_unixgroup.so ... AddExternalAuth pwauth /usr/local/bin/pwauth SetExternalAuthMethod pwauth pipe ... Location /subversion/ AuthBasicProvider external AuthExternal pwauth AuthName Subversion AuthType Basic AuthzUnixgroup on Dav svn Require file-group SSLRequireSSL SVNParentPath /usr/local/svn/ /Location ] 1. Any user accessing Subversion has to be authenticated against the Unix password database. Works. 2. Before we hit the Subversion module I would like to authorize the user against the file system. Does not work. I have repositories laid out on the file system under '/usr/local/svn/' like this: drwxrwx--- 6 root backup 512 Feb 9 2012 backup drwxrwx--- 6 root common 512 Feb 9 2012 common drwxrwx--- 6 root news_alert 512 Jun 14 2012 news_alert ... Each repository's group is the collection of users who should be able to read and write it, plus the Apache's 'www' user. This works fine with 'svnserve', enforced by Unix. How could I convince Apache to check the directory access rights before it hits MOD_DAV_SVN? There are 2 flaws at the moment: 1. 'Require file-group' checks against '/usr/local/www/apache22/data/subversion/common' and not '/usr/local/svn/common'. 2. It also checks each path components of, for example, '/subversion/ppt/!svn/ver/48/trunk' and not only '/subversion/ppt/'. Any idea how to fix this? Any other approach to the problem? Cheers B.
Contingency Planning
Hi Friends, I want a help to implement a contingency plannning, for SVN running on Apache and supposing my configuration is simple as possible on an vm machine, what is the best advice to strat the job? Best Regards
Re: Continuous Integration
I wish to create a web app and share it on SVN. I wish to use this SVN url for Jenkins Integration. I use Jenkins with SVN and it works just fine. You'll need the SVN plugin which is easily obtained through Jenkins. Do I need to take any precautions. For SVN, make sure it's configured for https:// and not http, unless it's internal. For Jenkins, make sure you enable security. By default it allows for anonymous read/write. You should also configure it for https rather than http, unless it's internal. Let me know if you have any specific questions.

I use Subversion and I’ve develop web sites whose code I’ve stored in a Subversion repository, but I haven’t used Jenkins. Perhaps you could explain what role you want Jenkins to play, and why you think it will be a problem.
compressed Subversion dump files are larger than uncompressed file
We are using SVN 1.7 and running in Solaris 10. Recently we've introduced incremental backup and the dump files will be compressed after the dump operation. The following are the commands that are used, svnadmin dump -q --incremental -r0:30700 /path/to/repos /path/to/dmp gzip -1 /path/to/dump But the issue here is the .gz file is double the size of dump file. Means, the dump file size is 500MB whereas the .gz file is of 850 MB size. I tried gzip -9 as well but that doesnt solve the purpose either as it compresses to an 650 MB file. Can anyone tell me what could be the issue here? Thanks, Sakthi
Re: Contingency Planning
I think it depends exactly on what you are trying to do. For starters, you could be backing up the db you are using with svn. But you are probably doing that anyway. Then you could have the backup server (vm/iron) ready to go. If the production svn server dies, you can apply the dump in the warm spare and be back in business. You will loose all commits up to the time of the last backup, but that is it. IMHO that would be the easiest procedure. Implementation is of course specific to your setup, requirements, and policies.

I am sure the entry is evaluated, because I get an error nmessage, when I enter a wrong file name. I hope you hava an idea. Thanks, Kai It is hard to tell where the problem could be without seeing the source code of your client. But here's a guess: Are you seeting up authentication providers properly? See the function svn_cmdline_create_auth_baton() in this file: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/subversion/libsvn_subr/cmdline.c
