sharing a svn repo

Fri, 04/03/2009 - 10:17 — abate

Recently I had few problems with a svn repository that is shared between multiple ssh users. I followed the instructions in the svn book and to solve the problem once for all I recreated the repo from scratch. Briefly:

svnadmin dump SVN > /tmp/dump
mv SVN SVN-old
svnadmin create SVN
chmod -R g+rw SVN
find SVN -type d -exec chmod g+s {} \;
chown -R root.cvs SVN
 svnadmin load SVN < /tmp/dump

hopefully this is gonna work.

svn db/current problem

Thu, 02/05/2009 - 11:32 — abate

A while ago one of my svn repositories became all the sudden inaccessible. It turned out that the file db/current got corrupted for some reason, leaving the repo in an inconsistent state.
The file db/current in a svn repository (using the FSFS backend) contains the largest revision number and the next unique node and copy ids. Googling around I found this old message [1] explaining the problem, but not providing any satisfactory solution.

This is a small script to generate code snapshots from the svn repository.
