way of feature request
Hi, what is the way or what is the best way, when I want to add a feature request? What I am looking for. IMHO I can find in OS Unix, Linux, Windows, MacOS X for every file the creation date, modification date and last touch date and I want (feature request) that these informations are stored in the repository for every file. And I want to have the option that I can configure that this date informations are rebuild for every file when I checkout, update, import, merge or whatever in a repository. bye Claudius Landesbank Baden-Wuerttemberg Anstalt des oeffentlichen Rechts Hauptsitze: Stuttgart, Karlsruhe, Mannheim, Mainz HRA 12704 Amtsgericht Stuttgart

use-commit-times = yes
Hi, we have our Client configured with the setup use-commit-times = yes is it possible with a svn or svn-admin command to modify this commit-times in the repository? bye Claudius Landesbank Baden-Wuerttemberg Anstalt des oeffentlichen Rechts Hauptsitze: Stuttgart, Karlsruhe, Mannheim, Mainz HRA 12704 Amtsgericht Stuttgart
ModificationDate after commit
Hello, we have at the moment a little problem with svn and the modification date of files we want to commit. we use a software with a lot of EXE-Files where the developer company uses the modification date as version information. So this informations are important for us. the software we get from this company is imported into a vendor branch (for every patch or hotfix delivery a new vendor brnach) and when we check out we see the correct modification date in our file structure because we activated use-commit-times = yes. After imported the sent software we want to merge this with a branch or trunk and commit the changes. After that the modification date is lost. What can we do that the modification date we can see on file structur is also stored in svn and is also possible to see after checkout/update? thanks for help bye Claudius Landesbank Baden-Wuerttemberg Anstalt des oeffentlichen Rechts Hauptsitze: Stuttgart, Karlsruhe, Mannheim, Mainz HRA 12704 Amtsgericht Stuttgart
Antwort: RE: ModificationDate after commit
Hello, we asked 2002 for an other version controlling identification, but the company won't change the ModificationDate-Version-Identification. With CVS wir imported the files and the modification date is stored and could be checked out. Now we move to svn and I thought that we can use there some features (merge and commit). To get the repository date we found a property, but without the possibility to store/save the modification date from a file in my WC into the repository by using commit/merge I have only the chance to Import the files to the repository. In this case the correct date is stored in the repository. At the moment I don't know why this works, I have to ask my technical guy. The recommended practice within the windows world is not known by everybody so I have to look for solutions. But I see that there is an issue #1256 created 2003 which is waiting for programming where absolutly matches my problem. bye Claudius Landesbank Baden-Wuerttemberg Anstalt des oeffentlichen Rechts Hauptsitze: Stuttgart, Karlsruhe, Mannheim, Mainz HRA 12704 Amtsgericht Stuttgart | || || || || | Thomas Hemmer | | them...@go-engineering.de | || | 13.01.2010 14:50 | | ---| | | | | | An| | 'Claudius Sailer' claudius.sai...@lbbw.de, users@subversion.apache.org | | Kopie| | | | Thema| | RE: ModificationDate after commit | | | | | | | | | | | ---| No chance for that, sorry. Anyway, version information should rather be stored within the resource area of the PE file instead of abusing the time stamp for this purpose (provided that you are really talking about Windows, as the term EXE-Files implies). Perhaps you might ask them to use the VERSIONINFO statement in their resource script in order to achieve that. This is the recommended practice within the Windows world.

Antwort: Re: ModificationDate after commit
we have this problem only with our EXE-Files and there we have 1200 of them. It will be difficult to handle these manually. I also found #1256 and red the history. poor situation for a development team. I have the benefit that we don't use date informations for merge, diff or whatever. we will see forward for issue #1256 ;-)) and we are looking forward for other solutions (workarounds) like we had with CVS. The hint with the property is something we will have a look on it.

What can we do that the modification date we can see on file structur is also stored in svn and is also possible to see after checkout/update? As you've discovered, Subversion does not store the modification date/time in the repository. It stores only the commit date/time. The request to have Subversion store the modification date/time was filed years ago; I wouldn't count on it getting resolved soon. http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1256 When you check out, file modification dates are either now (use-commit-times in your Subversion client's config file is off) or the commit time (use-commit-times is on). If you have this feature turned on, you could manually set the svn:date property of the merge revision to the date of the original revision, but note that if this causes your revision dates not to be in chronological order, it means you cannot use Subversion's date-based revision search feature; it will happily return a result revision to you, but it might not be the correct one. http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.tour.revs.specifiers.html#svn.tour.revs.dates Note also that the revision date of course applies to every file committed in that revision. If it's important that different files in a single revision be shown to have different modification times, then this won't help you. You could merge each file one at a time and set that revision's svn:date to that file's desired modification time
