Bring back svnkit16! :-) [message #931800]

Hi,

the latest Buckminster Subversive headless feature imports svnkit17.
However, that version introduced changes that make it incompatible with
older working copy formats (e.g., I can no longer determine latest
revision from a working copy checked out by an older svn command).

Is there any way to publish a different subversive headless feature that
would import svnkit16? Same as the current feature but with a different
id so that the user can choose at installation time to use the one that
imports svnkit16.

Thanks!

This problem is not confined to Buckminster Subversive headless. When some of us started using the Eclipse Juno (4.2) IDE, we noticed that Buckminster Subclipse (which we use) requires Subclipse 1.8/SVNKit 1.7, which means it uses a new working copy format (the one used by subversion 1.7). Of course, the svn command line client installed on our machines is 1.6! This means that we canlt use the command line against anything checked out by Buckminster.

If you want an svn 1.6-compatible client, the simplest way is to install the Indigo (3.7) rather than the Juno (4.2) flavour of Buckminster. It works ok for us.

Makes you wonder though, why the people behind SVN doesn't care about backward compatibility. I just took for granted
that they did.

Git anyone?

SVN kills from the other side of the grave...

So glad I am no longer using SVN - constant source of pain and grief.

For the poor souls that still do, can they drop just the buckminster
bundle requiring svnkit17 and install the older SVN support? (My guess
is that won't work, and they are then stuck with an older Buckminster).

Would it be possible to add a feature like the attached? Installing this
new feature instead of the standard headless subversive support seems to
do the trick for me. I can create a bugzilla if there's any interest.
Thanks!

Hi Peter,

Yes, please attach this to a bugzilla. It seems like a good solution.

Thanks,

For Subclipse, we require org.tigris.subversion.subclipse.core which in turn requires 1.8. Subversive handles this
differently and will allow a choice of 1.6 and 1.7 underneath. The best solution in the IDE is therefore probably to use
Subversive when a mixed environment with 1.6 is required.

Buckminster will install fine in a 4.2 IDE with a Subversive installation which in turn uses SVNKit 1.6.

Thomas Hallgren
