It can be done this way, but that's not a requirement. One can also tag
'trunk', or any other branch.

I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to achieve? The .svn
directories (and contents) should not be accessed directly. That's what
the SVN client is for.

It is easy to manually remove data from the "auth" directory, see

I use the SVNIndexXSLT option to point Apache to an XSL stylesheet.

Re: svn status does not detect a modification if the same file was touched

I seemed to remember subversion behaved like git in this regard, using a
checksum (as shown in 'svn info') as an indicator, rather than raw file
size. Oh well, I'm pretty sure you know first-hand how it works. ;-)

Subversion uses a hash of the file content to determine if it has been
modified. Changing the modification date in the working copy, as you did
with 'touch', does not alter the content, hence the file is considered
unchanged. This is deliberate.

Don't use network based file systems. Really, don't.

Set up the new server as a mirror (with local data store, in new format,
not yet accessible to your users) of the existing server, use svnsync to
replicate the data, over hours or days if necessary. It does not matter
how long it takes to sync, since the existing server can continue to
operate, and you can synchronise in portions if required. From the docs:

  Also noteworthy is that svnsync performs careful bookkeeping that
  allows it to be safely interrupted and restarted without ruining the
  integrity of the mirrored data.

Once you are ready to switch, close user access to the old server, run
svnsync one final time, change DNS names, and have the new server accept
user connections.

> Do users need to create a new working copies?

That is a necessity whenever the repository UUID changes.

Why would anything be wrong with Subversion? Apparently something is not
going as expected in your own script, causing bash to exit.

Scripts always have to be adapted to local needs. On some systems, the
path for bash might be different, or bash might not be available at all.
That's each user's own responsibility.

Planned release date for mod_dav_svn compile error fix (SVN 1.7/Apache 2.4)

2012-04-19 Thread Ralph Seichter
Hi list,

in February, Mario Brandt started a thread about a compile error against
Apache 2.4.x (see http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2012-02/0486.shtml).

subversion/mod_dav_svn/util.c: In function 'dav_svn__log_err':
subversion/mod_dav_svn/util.c:630:20: error: 'dav_error' has no member named 
'save_errno'
subversion/mod_dav_svn/util.c:631:28: error: 'dav_error' has no member named 
'save_errno'

A patch was suggested and discussed with Daniel Shahaf. As far as I can
tell from the mailing list archives, no release date has been named for
the fix, or have I overlooked something?

There are numerous fine MUAs out there which will gladly sort your
incoming mail and prevent inbox clutter by providing folders. You might
also be able to use Sieve for a server-side solution.

 Please change over to a threaded forum, so I can participate without
 resorting to email.

Mailing lists are superior to forums because all relevant information is
delivered without user interaction, while forums must be actively
visited. Besides, forum software widely varies in usability, while each
user can freely choose his personal favourite e-mail client. Also, mail
can be stored locally and is available offline, if the need arises.

 Is this something Tigris can change?

I hope Tigris will never consider abandoning mailing lists for a forum.
