Subversion

Index of All Documentation » Wing Pro Reference Manual » Integrated Version Control »


Wing's Subversion integration requires the svn command line executable to be installed separately from Wing. Please see http://subversion.tigris.org/ for information about Subversion. The svn executable may either be in your path or set with the Version Control > SVN > SVN Executable preference.

The Subversion integration works best if usernames and passwords are handled by an SSH agent. For details on this see SSH Setup Details and the Subversion documentation.

Using SSH is preferred because there is no safe way to interact with the svn executable to pass it a username and password. The --username and --password command line arguments can be used, but will expose the password to anyone on the system who can list process command lines. If there is no alternative, these can be specified in the Version Control > SVN > Extra Global Arguments preference.

Subversion defines the following commands, in addition to those documented in Common Version Control Operations:

Update updates the local copy with changes from the repository.

Resolved indicates that a conflict that arose during update has been resolved. Files that are in conflict cannot be checked in with commit until the resolved operation is completed.

Blame/Praise displays the the revision number and author for every line in a file.

Last Revision Diff shows the differences in the most recently committed change set for a file.

Update Project updates all the directories in the project with changes from the repository.
