[Subclipse-users] Re :Re: [Subclipse-users] Problem with new file and path in patches

When you say "Subversion 1.5 enhanced the API for us so that we can produce relative path patches." does that mean the second problem of absolute paths occuring in patches should not happen? If yes, then which configuration parameter needs to be tweaked to achieve this or do I need to upgrade by Subclipse versionThanksHimanshuOn Thu, 10 Apr 2008 14:09:39 -0400 users_at_subclipse.tigris.org wrote On Thu, Apr 10, 2008 at 1:54 PM, himanshu ranavat wrote: > I am facing two frequent problems at work and cannot find a way to approach > the problem.

We run the Subversion diff API and it creates the patch. I have never experienced a problem with new files in patches, so am not sure what your #1 could be. #2 is a limitation of the API and the way it is executed. Subversion 1.5 enhanced the API for us so that we can produce relative path patches. The Apply Patch wizard provided by Eclipse can handle full paths in the patch though. That being said, when the paths are relative it is a lot easier to apply them so we were happy to get this API change into Subversion. -- Thanks Mark Phippard http://markphip.blogspot.com/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@subclipse.tigris.org For additional c!
