Re: Subversion 1.7 support?
Your words were well said and not too long at all. I for one have been using a competitor's product for quite a while but have been holding out hope that Versions will again be the svn GUI of choice. I actively watch for progress whether it is in what is said on this list or in new releases. What you said was encouraging. I will continue to look to come back if and when Versions meets my needs better than the competitor's product. I have been down the road of trying to support what ended up becoming abandon-ware (ZigVersion), and I am glad to hear that Versions is far from that.

Re: transferring license to new machine
For those frustrated by the lack of support for Versions these days there is an excellent alternative to Versions on Mac - Cornerstone http://www.zennaware.com/cornerstone/index.php Actually, Cornerstone is light years better than Versions. And no, I have no connection whatsoever with the developers of Cornerstone. I just gave up on Versions, switched, and am delighted.

Re: transferring license to new machine
I don't believe they are defunct, strictly speaking. However, I do seem to recall that Facebook purchased Sofa (the development company behind Versions) about 3 months ago. I would be stunned if that purchase did not considerably reduce the developers' commitment to supporting Versions and the other software developed, or at least owned, by Sofa. After all, Facebook certainly did not buy the company so that the talent in it could continue doing what they were doing before.

Re: Google Groups Alternatives?
I have a fair bit of experience moderating groups on Yahoo! Groups (I inherited all these groups from other moderators and am stuck with them as the communities that use them are unwilling to contemplate migrating to anything better). I find the spam recognition features capricious. The file management set up is annoying as well. I definitely would not recommend it for anything other than a social group that just wants to have a convenient group email system - and doesn't mind having the occasional member email labeled as spam for no good reason at all.

Re: Easier way of adding
I am a bit unclear on what you are asking: Do you want to know if there is a way to have Versions prompt you (automatically) with a message that there are unversioned files within the directory tree you have selected to commit and to have the prompt include the option to add all those files so they can be committed? The short answer to that question is no. So far as I can tell, Versions lacks this functionality, but Cornerstone has it. The fastest way to see such unversioned files in Versions is to have the Versions browser show "changed" files instead of "all." Then one has to select all the unversioned files, add them, and then you can finally commit. I agree that that is too many steps, but I don't see any faster way to do it with Versions.

Re: Quicktime files are marked as changed in Versions, after being opened only for playback by other applications
I am not familiar with the specific problem you cite. Nonetheless, you are probably correct in your guess about the header. One quick solution, annoying as it would be, would be to use the revert command (button) in Versions every time there is a change you know is not substantive (e.g. just a change in a header indicating that the video has been played again). This procedure should revert the working copy version to the version on the repository.

You can make the commit as fine grained as you like (down to a single file). Simply select those files you wish to commit and click on commit.

Re: VVersions not libAdMob.a not being added to SVN
Ah. Yes, my approach is the sledgehammer and yours is the flyswatter. Given the desire to check in a single .a file I would guess the flyswatter is much more appropriate. I am glad to have learned of the flyswatter myself.

Re: VVersions not libAdMob.a not being added to SVN
The problem is almost certainly outside of Versions purview. Your global-ignores list, which is not accessible from within Version (or any other subversion GUI I know of) almost certainly includes *.a (that is true by default on my machine anyway) To check, go to the config file for your username for subversion In your home directory: ~/.subversion/config (i.e. /Users/yourusername/.subverison/config) Because the folder name starts with "." the folder .subverison is hidden. It can be accessed most easily via the terminal (I use emacs, but you could use vi, and you can do the same thing in TextWrangler, BBEdit, or any other GUI that can see hidden files): 1) cd ~/.subversion 2) emacs config 1a) (or simply type: emacs ~/.subversion/config) 3) scroll down to line 94 or so (the exact line number may vary depending on your OS version etc. for all I know). You should find a line that starts global-ignores If this line is uncommented, then subversion will, by default ignore .a files. This is true not just for Versions but for all interfaces for subversion by default on Macs, so far as I know. 4) To enable subversion to see .a files simply remove the entry for *.a from the global-ignores list and save. You may need to restart Versions or simply hit Update to alert it to the change in the global-ignores list but this should do the trick.

Re: How to change repository location?
So far as I know this is because the working copy itself is pointing to the old location (inside those mysterious .svn folders). I don't know if Versions actually has the capacity to do "svn switch" I have always done this sort of thing on the command line using the command svn switch: See http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.ref.svn.c.switch.html for the syntax and method of execution.

Re: Versions Release Schedule
If it is still available, Zigversion handled merge fine for me. I miss it. The last stable version (1.2.3) was built against svn 1.4.x and svn 1.5.x, if memory serves. I had long thought of it as abandon-ware. However, the developer put up a pre-release of version 1.3 in December that worked with svn 1.6. I have it, but have been nervous about using it for my main client because it is a pre-release rather than a stable version. If you are desperate enough for the merge functionality though, you might try it on a sort of an emergency basis. Unfortunately, the zigversion website is not responding right this minute, so I don't know if that indicates that Erik finally abandoned the project or if it just happens to be down for a bit. It is free for academics so I don't actually know what it cost for the stable releases...

The subversion website is http://subversion.tigris.org (note there is no u but rather a second i in tigris).

Re: unable to install
My apologies if I have misunderstood your question, but it seems like you are asking a general question about where folders like Application Support lie... Mac OS X provides a standard set of locations for preferences and other supporting information for applications. Basically, any information that is not static and is needed for the proper operation of the application is supposed to go into one of two folders called "Application Support". Information that is specific to a particular user generally goes in: /Library/Application Support/ (actually the full path is : /Users//Library/Application Support/ ) - you can get there from your home icon. Click on your username/house icon, click on Library, click on Application Support, eh voila. Those that apply to all users typically go into /Library/Application Support/ you can get there by clicking on the hard disk icon in your sidebar and burrowing down through Library/Application Support/ There are some variations on that theme. For instance, all of the iWork applications are found under /Application Suport/iWork/ . User or machine-specific information that helps an application function is often in a folder with the application's name in one of the two Application Support folders. These folders should be treated carefully if you are unfamiliar with how it works, but in extreme situations wherein you cannot get the application to function at all, it makes sense to drag the application's folder from Application Support to the Desktop and restart the application. Don't just throw it away, until you know it is corrupted. If the problem resided in the Preferences, etc. the problem will be fixed but your information will not be in place. You can then try to restore the files that have your saved information in them. If the problem was not in the Application Support files then you should probably re-install and copy your information back from the Desktop to the Application Support folder. Many applications cannot function at all without properly set preferences, etc. Often, when there is a problem wherein an application refuses to function properly (or at all) the problem lies in a preferences file or in some other Application Support file. Most applications automatically regenerate a copy of their Application Support folder or any key files inside it with the default values when the folder is absent. Thus, moving the folder (or a corrupted preferences file) to the Desktop often solves the problem when an application simply will not function but leaves you with no saved information (e.g. bookmarks). Because this removes your saved information, one only resorts to this solution when one either has no choice or has a backup of bookmarks etc. as these files tend to contain all the user information you have stored on the computer related to that application.
