After a repository upgrade with svn version 1.5.1 (r32289) a few days ago, we now get the following error when committing: svn: Can't open file '/svn/mpfr/db/txn-current-lock': Permission denied No problems for read operations. The DB FS type is FSFS, and we have: vlefe...@ff-scm-prod:~$ ls -l

How bad would it be to use "nonstandard" merge techniques?

I'm managing a project that includes about a half a dozen developers and they have an existing SVN repo that most people have been using basically as a network share. PLEASE don't swamp me with all the "Well, they are just going to have to learn Subversion!" comments. I know what would be best bu

Anyone got a quick and dirty way to determine how long ago was the last commit? I want to change my build system to not start a build if there was a very recent checkin. That way if someone is checking in a group of changes, I don't end up kicking off a build in the middle and then having to wait f

Why does the 'entries' file get re-written when running svn up?

2010-08-10 Thread David Dabbs
