Re: triggering svn update on remote machine

> I've got a problem with triggering update on remote machine. I've got bunch of svn clients and few users who request ability to trigger svn update on client machines. All machines have tortoisesvn installed. Doing that by hand, machine by machine, is out of question - there are tens of client machines. Also doing that at specific time interval is not acceptable - client machines are not to be updated unless forced by user, when forced must run svn update at once and user must be able to check whether there were problems or not easy way. Everything on windows. Any suggestions? I don't feel like spending time on writing custom daemon for that. There must be an easy way.

TortoiseSVN is a GUI app, so it intended for interactive use. If you
want to do some sort of scripted update then you should be using the
subversion command line client instead. As for how to trigger such a
script remotely, that is an exercise for you. In most places being
able to execute code remotely without the local user being involved
would be considered a security flaw, so it is not a feature you are
going to see built into subversion.
