mmm ... meant "are going to shift your focus..."

Also, please don't take the post to be overly hostile.  I truly do
wish you the best, and hope that all is well with the Sofa team ;-)

Re: Current state of the application

Another nudge for the dev team.  I have enjoyed using Versions, and
purchased it based on the activity that I saw around the product and
the apparent polish that Sofa exhibited in their efforts.  I even
stuck my neck out by recommending Versions to a number of folks who
have also made the plunge and purchased the software.

A rough timeline, or a note saying "we're still around, but have lost
some momentum due to X..." would be nice.

Hey, Sofa!  Please let me know at least if I should continue to
recommend Versions, or if you is going to shift your focus elsewhere.
It's only fair.

Connect to subversion 1.5.5 or higher

2009-03-12 Thread Matthijs

Do more people have problems connecting to subversion repositories
using svn 1.5.5 or higher?

With the current release of Versions I can't connect to that version.

Re: repos and trunk, branch and tag

I've read a lot about tagging and branching in this group and I may be
as confused as some others but I used Versions to create a local repo
(on a large jump drive).  Part of my confusion was that the Versions
"Create a new local repo..." menu pick doesn't create 'trunk',
'branch' or 'tag' folders.

The result is that I have, essentially, a trunk with no branch or tag
siblings.

(1) Can I add those after the fact (I've not done it yet for fear of
losing history), and continue in a more conventional manner.


You certainly can—just create the directories in the proper locations  
and commit. However, when I tested local repository creation, it  
didn't create a "trunk" folder at all, just a repository with the  
standard root-level directory. This being the case, what you'll  
probably want to do it create 3 directories at the root level,  
entitled "trunk". "branches" and "tags". Commit those 3 directories to  
the repository. Now move everything else at the root level into  
"trunk" and commit.


You needn't fear losing history—Subversion stores versioning data for  
directories as well as files, so you can `svn move` a directory (or  
move it in Versions) and retain all the history.



(2) Would it make sense for Versions to create that folder structure
(or offer an option to do so)?


Although the trunk/tags/branches paradigm is the standard, many people  
use a different repository layout for organizing multiple projects,  
etc. Some people may not even care about tags or branches for their  
repository. Since not everyone uses the same layout, the current  
approach is most flexible, perhaps at the cost of some potential user  
confusion. As stated above, though, the structure can be changed at  
any time. This means that if a new SVN user happens to create a  
repository "the wrong way", this can be easily remedied later when  
they realize they want to change the structure.


If you're still nervous about history, create a new repository, add a  
few dummy commits, then add the trunk/branches/tags and move files as  
suggested in step one. Just make sure you do all the changes through  
Subversion (either in Versions or with the svn command, not just  
dragging in Finder) and you'll be fine.
