Adding a subdirectory inside a repository's /tag directory

by stephentang@rocketmail.com-2 :: Rate this Message:

Reply to Author | View Threaded | Show Only this Message

Using SmartSVN 6.07, I am accessing a SVN repository at work that has this type of directory structure for the tags

/tags/RECO/1.0
/tags/RECO/1.1
/tags/RSLT/1.0
/tags/RSLT/1.1

Basically, inside /tags/ are different projects with release number
folders.  These were created through TortoiseSVN.

I am trying to tag the working copy of my /trunk to create a tag
called /tags/RECO/1.2

I highlighted my trunk directory in SmartSVN, and then went to the
Tag/Branch menu and selected "Add Tag"
In the dialog window, it asks for the name of the tag, but it will not
go beyond the /tags directory.  It does not recognize /tags/RECO/1.2.
If I try to type "RECO/1.2", the location field becomes invalid.

My Configure Tag-Branch layout settings are set so branches are branches/*. Tags are tags/* from the root.

How can I accomplish this with SmartSVN?

In TortoiseSVN, this is trivial.  I highlight my /trunk directory, and then right-click and select SVN->Branch/tag, and type in the directory where the tag resides.  If the folder does not exist, TortoiseSVN seamlessly creates one.

Thank you for your help.

Sincerely,
Stephen

In general such a tag-branch-layout is not well supported by SmartSVN.
However, if the number of projects is not too large, you can configure
multiple tags-directories, like "tags/RECO/*, tags/RSLT/*". Furthermore you
have to make sure that you have always checked out /trunk (i.e. the parent
directory of your "projects"), then you should be able to create tags with
name "RECO/1.0". These tags will contain snapshots of the whole trunk, but
this should do no harm. Btw, tag-branch-layouts have been discussed in one of
our recent blog postings:

Hi Marc/Support,
Thank you for responding.  /tags/RECO/, tag/RSLT/ were created by TortoiseSVN at work, so would configuring SmartSVN for multiple tag-directories interfere?

Also, can you point me to where I can find more information about configuring multiple tag-directories?  

Thank you for your help.

Hi Support,
Thanks for the URL.

I selected my project root directory and then select in the menu, Tag/Branch->Configure Layout.

The project root is in this format
svn://server/svn/projectName/project/group/
(I can't use actual names)

The trunk is trunk
The branches field is set to branches/*
The branches field is set to tags/*,tags/RECO/*

I checked out my project's trunk directory.  I then went to the menu to select Tag/Branch->Add Tag.  In the dialog window that appears, I tried typing "RECO/1.9" in the Name field, but the Location field ended up saying "invalid."  If I just type in "RECO" in the Name field, the Location field reads svn://server/svn/projectName/project/group/tags/RECO

Is there anything else I could be doing wrong?  (This is SmartSVN 6.07)

Thank you for your support.

The branches field does not match the pattern you originally provided as the desired tag directory:

tags/RECO/*

should be the value, as in Marc's earlier message.  I think the punctuation is getting in the way.

Hi Donald,
Thanks for replying.
According to SmartSVN's documentation:
http://www.syntevo.com/smartsvn/documentation.html?page=commands.tag-branch-layout

the comma is supposed to be in the field to separate multiple tags.  I'll see what happens when I remove the comma.

Re: Re: Adding a subdirectory inside a repository's /tag directory

I see what you are talking about, but I think the existence of the tags/* confuses the tags/RECO/* immediately following.  I thing the pattern should be one of tags/* or tags/*/* or tags/RECO/*,tags/REPL/*

This is a problem with specification by example.  There is no good means of generalising from the specific example if it doesn't exactly match your requirement.

Keep us posted.
Donald.

Hi Donald,
Thanks for replying.
According to SmartSVN's documentation:
http://www.syntevo.com/smartsvn/documentation.html?page=commands.tag-branch-layout

the comma is supposed to be in the field to separate multiple tags.  I'll see what happens when I remove the comma.
