More SVN praise

Sunday, 11 November 2007 15:08 by jakew

I’m reconnecting my working copies to the new server and it couldn’t be better. On my workstation I’m using Tortoise SVN (http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/) which provides a nice explorer shell plug-in. With it you can just right click on files or directories and do SVN type stuff off the context menu.

In this case, to relocate your working copy’s source from one server to another you do the following:

  1. right click on the root directory
  2. choose “Relocate…” off the menu
  3. Enter the new URL for the repository

The only issue I had was that I needed to redo my password on the new server. Once that was done it just worked.
