Repository Version Check Feature Request

	Repository Version Check Feature Request by Leif Mortenson-3 :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Hi, First of all Tortoise SVN is a great tool! Thank you for all your hard work. First a little background to describe the issue. My development machine is a Mac OSX system running VMWare with a Guest Windows XP system. I have my Mac User directory shared with windows as a mapped drive. I have repositories checked out both to my Windows drive and the shared Mac drive. The repositories on the Mac drive are checked out and updated from the Mac command line, but I view the files in Windows. The problem is that every once in a while, I will accidentally do an update to a Mac repository from within Windows. Instantly before I can cancel, Tortoise SVN upgrades the version number of all of the .svn files. If I then go back to Mac and attempt any SVN operations, I will get the following error: --- svn: This client is too old to work with working copy '.'; please get a newer Subversion client --- On Mac, svn -version returns: Subversion command-line client, version 1.4.4. My request is: Would it be possible to add a check in Tortoise SVN where it will prompt the user for confirmation before updating the .svn files when the version difference is a major one? Thanks in advance, Cheers, Leif ------------------------------------------------------ http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4061&dsMessageId=2416001 To unsubscribe from this discussion, e-mail: [users-unsubscribe@...].

Sorry, but no. That check and the auto-upgrade is done inside the subversion library. You have to ask the subversion core developers on the subversion mailing list.

Does this help? http://subversion.tigris.org/getting.html#osx It might be quicker than negotiating a chnage to the Subversion libraries. - Mark. ------------------------------------------------------ http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4061&dsMessageId=2416076 To unsubscribe from this discussion, e-mail: [users-unsubscribe@...].
	RE: Repository Version Check Feature Request by Bob Archer :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message I'm curious why you don't upgrade your Mac client to match the version of TSVN you are using. That seems to be the easiest solution. BOb > -----Original Message----- > From: leif@...

That seems to be the easiest solution. Actually, the easiest solution is to not share working copies between OSes in the first place, since that's very publicly known as the opposite of a "best practice" (is "worst practice" a proper buzzword?). >> -----Original Message----- >> From: leif@...
