Developers notes: SVN

Thursday, December 1, 2016

There are 2 svn connectors:

Tortoise and Eclipse plugins for SVN by default use JavaHL and that does not work over DA by default!

Direct Access goes over IPv6.

Subclise for Eclipse can be set to use SVN Kit or JavaHL as client.

By default SVN Kit goes over IPv6 but tortoise is using JavaHL and those two are incompatible. Errors like

revert C:/projects/internal/backoffice-sso

    svn: E200030: Index not exists: I_NODES_MOVED

    Index not exists: I_NODES_MOVED

or

An internal error occurred during: "Refresh SVN status cache".

Can't overwrite cause with org.tmatesoft.svn.core.SVNException: 

svn: E155010: The node 'zzz_project' was not found.

Get version that supports IPv6.

Latest version, 1.9.5 does not have ipv6 version and does not work!

Download and install SlikSVN (https://sliksvn.com/download/)

Install Subclipse in Eclipse via update site, I have used version 4.2.x where update site is https://dl.bintray.com/subclipse/releases/subclipse/4.2.x/

After, verify SVN interface that is in use (Preferences - type SVN) is SilkSvn.

Subclipse 1.10.13 does not use SlikSVN as connector! I guess versions are incompatible: Subclipse uses JavaHL 1.9.3 and installed SlikSvn uses 1.9.4
