Hello,
I manage a large subversion repository, and I am interested in upgrading to
1.5. However, it will not be possible for me to upgrade all our user's svn
clients at the same time, since they are managed indvidually by the users
themselves.
My concern is this:
1. We begin using subversion 1.5's merge tracking feature throughout the
repository.
2. A user with an older subversion client does some (legacy-style) merge
operations on the repository.
3. The svn:mergeinfo on the server is then incomplete/corrupt?
I tried to look for how subversion 1.5 handles this mixed client server
version situation, but it is unclear. The documentation states that merge
tracking is only supported if both server and client are version 1.5, but
does not state what happens if an earlier client attempts to perform
(legacy-style) merges against a 1.5 server and repository with merge
tracking information in use by others.
If this scenario is not supported, is it possible to deny access to a
repository from clients earlier than 1.5?
Thanks,
David
