Tortoise Svn For Mac
New to Subversion? Versions makes Subversion easy. Even if you're new to version control systems altogether. Commit your work, stay up to date, and easily track changes to your files. All from Versions' pleasant, true to the Mac interface.
Update: The Command Line Tools for Xcode 5 include SVN 1.7.10.
I downloaded the latest version of Eclipse and Subclipse for my new work Macbook Pro. When I ran svn
commands in Terminal I received some odd messages. After some confusion, I realized Subclipse checked out the repository using SVN version 1.7. Unfortunately Mac OS X Mountain Lion runs SVN version 1.6.
I could have downgraded Subclipse. However, I had already checked out several repositories. Furthermore, I liked the smaller footprint of SVN 1.7. In typical lazy developer fashion, I went with updating SVN to version 1.7 for Mac OS X.
To give due credit, the foundations of this post came from a post on Building SVN 1.7. Although I expanded on it, I encourage you to read the original post. For completeness, I outlined the full process below.
Note: To compile and install SVN 1.7 you need Xcode with the Command Line Tools installed.
Download the SVN Source
Note: You may need to update the curl
command to download the latest SVN 1.7 source.
Build and Install SVN
The default SVN install on Mac OS X uses neon. neon allows you to connect to remote SVN repositories via HTTP and HTTPS. Lines 2-7 installs neon. Line 8 builds SVN using the --with-neon
configuration flag.
Using the New SVN
Your environment will still use SVN version installed with Mac OS X:
To use the SVN version you just installed, you can update your PATH
. Assuming you are using the bash shell, add or edit the following line in your ~/.bash_profile
:
You should now see the SVN version you installed:
Find this interesting? Let's continue the conversation on Twitter.
A comparison of Subversion clients includes various aspects of computer software implementations of the client role using the client–server model of the Subversionrevision control system.
Descriptions[edit]
TortoiseSVN, a Windows shell extension, gives feedback on the state of versioned items by adding overlays to the icons in the Windows Explorer. Repository commands can be executed from the enhanced context menu provided by Tortoise.
Cornerstone is a GUI for Subversion written with Xcode for MacOS X.
SmartSVN provides a similar Explorer integration, but also can be used as a standalone SVN client for different platforms. SmartSVN is available in three different editions: A free Foundation edition with fewer features and two commercial editions called Professional and Enterprise with the full feature set.
Some programmers prefer to have a client integrated within their development environment. Such environments may provide visual feedback of the state of versioned items and add repository commands to the menus of the development environment. Examples of this approach include AnkhSVN, and VisualSVN for use with Microsoft Visual Studio, and Subversive[1][2]for use with Eclipse. Delphi XE Subversion integration is built into the Delphi IDE.
It is common to expose Subversion via Webdav using the Apache web server. In this case, any Webdav client can be used, but the functionality provided this way may be limited. Alternative ways to serve Subversion include uberSVN and VisualSVN Server.
