Yesterday I finished the work on the partial repository sync feature on the
svnsync-folder branch. If someone has time to review the changes on that
branches before I merge it back to trunk that would be nice.
This is how it works:
- In svnsync init you can now specify a url to any path in the repository, ex.
http://repos/svn/trunk/www .
- During replay a filter is used that filters out all paths expect:
- /trunk/www
- /trunk (depth empty)
- / (depth empty) -> I have to check if propmods on '/' are actually
included, didn't test it but they should be.
- All revisions on the master of which all files and directories are filtered
out result in empty revisions on the slave.
- This works over all ra layers.
The filter has the same effect as not having read access to /trunk/www. This
means things like moving to /trunk/ww is converted to Add and moving from
/trunk/www is converted to Delete, I didn't have to change anything there.
Since changes to mod_dav_svn had to be made to make this work, the 'partial
replay' feature will only work with a 1.5 server. I added a 'partial-replay'
capability to find this out in a clean way. We return an error when a user
wants to sync a part of the repository on a 1.4 server.
The diff to review is:
$ svn diff http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk@28341
http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/branches/svnsync-folder
thx,
Lieven
