I seem to remember being able to get TortoiseSVN to set the last-modified timestamp for files to the timestamp from the revision when performing an update. So if someone committed a file five days ago and I update it, the modified timestamp will be five days ago, not today. Where is the option? Shane Fulmer When I go to the Settings option in the TortoiseSVN menu, I see an option to "Set file dates to the last commit time." This may be what you're looking for. Invoke the Settings option Set the option sunny256 I am not sure if Tortoise uses the SVN client as a backend, but if it does, there is

I'm trying to svn update my SVN working copy with TortoiseSVN but the update fails, asking to perform the clean up first. However, the svn cleanup fails too stating that a \.svn\pristine\20\20long-namecbf.svn-base file cannot be found . I've already tried to release the lock but this does not work either. Any idea how should I proceed? You can use SmartSVN to restore lost pristine file. Download and install it. It's not free but 30 days free trial should be enough to repair your repository. Open your working copy in SmartSVN . To repair, select Modify > Validate Admin Area... Enjoy! chunguiw

I'm about to merge certain revisions from trunk into a release-branch. I've checked with mergeinfo how many revisions are eligible to get merged, and that were 42. Although it's definitely possible and not too hard to check each revision log and decide whether it should be merged or not. I would then check the logs with TortoiseSVN and use the command line svn merge -c rev1,rev2 function or -r for ranges of course. I was wondering if TortoiseSVN has a tool to make this cherrypicking a lot easier. I've googled for it, but found out that only probably TortoiseGit has it. Any other methods which

the idea is to use SVN (Tortoise) but, the thing is I dont have and dont want to use a server, cuz this will be used with only one person, is a college project. I have an old computer that I could use to make a server, the idea is to use it like a server. What documentation should I read, or what should I do to make it happen?... You can access the repository using file:// protocol so you will only need Tortoise SVN installed and nothing else. See this question in FAQ: Is it possible to use TortoiseSVN without a server? You can even have the repository in the usb device so that you can take

I've setup a new SVN repository, running SVNServe, in the conf file, anon-access = none. SVNServe faithfully does that correctly, but when I try to browse the repos using TortoiseSVN, it just says access is not allowed. Shouldn't it ask me for the user name and password instead? How do I get TortoiseSVN to ask me for the login details? Running SVN 1.5.6, TortoiseSVN 1.5.9 eglasius It probably has some authentication data saved, try: right click->tortoise->settings->saved data->Authentication Data-Clear. In some cases the "Clear"-Authentication data button remains disabled, then rename the

Scenario : An binary file needs a svn lock to modify. To modify, the file was first locked, modified, and then while committing, cancelled the commit using the "Cancel" button. Due to some reason, deleted the whole folder containing the locked file (including the .svn folder). Problem : I used "SVN update" through tortoise svn. All the files were updated. But the file which was locked previously does not indicate as locked with the lock symbol. Nevertheless, I modified the file and tried to commit. Error while committing : Server sent unexpected return value (423 Locked) in response to PUT
