NotesSubversion

These are my notes on using Subversion.

svn add --non-recursive adds a directory without adding its contents.

add skips over directories that are already under version control. To include every unversioned object in the working copy, use svn add * --force.

cat dumpfile svnadmin load /path/to/repo to import from an svn dump file.

To undo changes that have been committed, you can use merge like:

svn merge -rBASE:690 nnimap+fsf\:INBOX.SCORE

This reverts back to r690 of that file.

And I think one way or perhaps two; it doesn’t matter // as long as one can slip by, and easily // into the questioning but not miasmal dark. // Look, here is a stance--- // shall you cover it, cape it? I // don’t care he said, going down all those stairs // makes a boy of you... //

-- John Ashbery, from "From Estuaries, from Casinos" (Hotel Lautréamont 1992)
