Hello.
Well can I? :)
Yesterday I experimented with svn becourse I am searching for a
possibility to make versioned backups of my home directory (well, under
Mac OS X). And here is the problem. svn add complains about Umlaute,
and decided to leave a .svn directory well, just everywhere, even
inside every Application (inside the bundle, which technically is a
directory).
To make the matter short, I am just searching how to delete all these
(masses) :)
So what can I do to archieve my aim? I want to commit each file type,
files and dirs with a prefixed dot (and would be glad to even archive
resource forks).
To emphasize my wishes I will tell in a few words why.
I have a custumer (well one I am helping with his computer and earning
a few Euros) who is a old, sick (ill) by brain desease und heart
attack, not handicapted but restricted and he tends to delete a lot of
things by accident. Emails from his inbox, letters, and so on. No file
is really safe :(
I am experienced in perl and I could write a script for a cron job
commiting every changed document (I am quite shure that svn does this
part for me) every 15 minutes. I am shure I will be able do even delete
parts of the revisions which reached a certain age to keep the
repository as small as desired.
Is it technically possible to do this, I mean I don't want to start
scripting if svn cannot commit resource forks or files with dot or
certain binary file types (and of course Umlaute).
Any Ideas greatly welcome.
Greetings,
Robert Welz
