RE: Automated nightly build ... only when updated

Wouldn't "svn info svn://server/repos/some/dir" do the trick? Just
check the "Last changed Rev" or "Last Changed Date" values. IIRC, the
"last changed" fields are updated whenever anything in the subtree is
updated.

Subject: Automated nightly build ... only when updated

Hi,

I have a very simple nightly build script that performs an update,
rebuilds everything, and then emails out a report with the build
results. This runs every night which is a bit annoying if the project
has not been updated. Is there way to build a script that only performs
the build and emails the result if there has been an update? I did a
quick check on svn return codes, and could not find anything useful.
Any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Peter
