I've just downloaded and installed SVN Tortoise, but no commands appear on the menu. How is that possible? Did you restart your machine? Update: I ran into the same problem myself! It happened when I installed version 1.6 over 1.5. When I restarted my machine, I found Tortoise entries in Start Menu but not via context menu. When I clicked on "Settings" an error message appeared. So, I uninstalled 1.6 and installed it anew. Now it's working again! Yes, available through context menu. I believe it's a bug. I was having the same issue on Windows 7 64-bit. I reinstalled a number of times, but

I've noticed an immense delay (just sitting there doing nothing) since upgrading to the latest version of windows while using tortoiseSVN to compare any file to its base version [TortoiseMerge] . I was on the fast track and got the fall creators update about a month ago and noticed this too so i reverted back and it went away. After it hit RTM I thought this was fixed but apparently I was wrong. What do I mean with very slow? Before fall creators update: <1 second After: A minute or 2, as long as it takes..and that's just for comparing 1 file. I just go read an article or something and wait

When setting up an instance of the excellent TortoiseSVN , I find myself repeating its settings, for example, 'default checkout folder' and 'global ignore pattern' (as well as many others such as the linked tools). This is a pain. Where is the latter stored? I've found the former around the registry key [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TortoiseSVN] , but 'global ignore pattern' is missing. A text search of the user tree doesn't find it either. Where is it? From the Readme of Subversion, which seems to be installed with TortoiseSVN anyway: File locations ============== Typically, Subversion uses two

I understand that the "SVN checkout" command will do the initial get of file(s) from the Subversion repository and bring them locally to your working directory/copy and that the "SVN update" command will get changes to file(s) from the repository if changes have been made by others. It seems to me though that an "update" is just a special case of a "checkout", that is, when a checkout occurs, it's getting all files since none yet exist locally and hence ALL of the files have "changed", and that behind the scenes these commands are doing largely the same thing. I assume the commands exist

I have a branch which I am doing the changes seperately. Other team mates doing the changes in trunk. Scenario is, now I want to give a release including trunk updates + my branch updates. Since I haven't done the complete module yet, I don't want to merge branch to the trunk. Instead I want to create another new branch from trunk and then merge my branch changes to that new Branch. So that I can have the new branch fully updated with my branch updates + latest trunk updates . I'm using tortoise svn merge and this is what I did: Let's say in trunk there is a newly added file : A, which is not

I'm using TortoiseSVN and Visual Studio 2008. Is there any way to update my project's assemblyinfo.cs with svn's version in every build? For example, 1.0.0.[svn's version] -> 1.0.0.12 You could use the SubWCRev tool which comes with TortoiseSVN (also available separately). Either run it from a command line or use the COM-Object it offers. The SubWCRev command line tool replaces keywords inside a file with information from your svn working copy. An example is shown in the docs. I do this in my build script : <SvnInfo LocalPath="."> <Output TaskParameter="Revision" PropertyName="BuildRev" /> <
