RE: SVN and file modification date

Hello:
Thanks for answering, but it did not help me. I already tried it.

I downloaded that patch, installed it on 1.2.3 version (with simply
changing pathes to 1.2.3 from 1.2.0rc2)
Then I recompiled SVN, started it, but it still clearing my modification
date.
I took my one-year-old file, add it to repository, click "commit" (I use
TortoiseSVN), and when I did "check out" from another machine -
modification date was wrong.

May be I did something wrong?

You didn't search the mailing list. :-)

You need the meta-data patches/branch for that.

See http://svn.collab.net/viewcvs/svn/branches/meta-data-versioning/ for
the branch; see
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=subversion-dev&m=111459962412224&w=2 for
patches against 1.2.0rc2 (which apply with a small fuzz also against the
released version).

Or - depending on what you want to do - for simple versioning of
"opaque"
files (ie. not program sources, but programs, machine installations,
versioning of /etc and so on) fsvs might be better suited
(fsvs.tigris.org).

Regards,

Phil
