Esoteric Subversion Commands
Posted by Chris Blackburn
Make a file executable, aka. set the execute/executable bit on a file using subversion:
svn ps svn:executable true path/to/filename
Ignore a file or file glob:
svn ps svn:ignore "*.pattern" path/to/directory
Merge two repositories:
svn merge --ignore-ancestry "$prod@HEAD" "$branch@HEAD" "$path"
example:
@svn merge svn://svn.cbciweb.com/svn/fakepath/trunk svn://svn.cbciweb.com/svn/fakepath/branches/stage /home/cblackburn/src/ruby/fake_project@... after the merge don’t forget to commit.
