the problem is needing a dirty hack
(building a list and swapping the svn executable for COMSPEC when using
gradle's exec command)
on windows, because, on windows, exec does not return the correct exit
value.
It always returns 0
For example, my current work around looks a bit like this:
if (System.getProperty("os.name")?.toLowerCase()?.indexOf("windows") !=
-1){
svnExecutor = System.getenv("COMSPEC")
svnCommandExtras += ['/c', 'svn']
}
else // no extras needed for linux
svnExecutor = 'svn'
result = exec {
executable = svnExecutor
ignoreExitValue = true
args = svnCommandExtras + ['export',
"${svn_repo_root}/path/settings.gradle", file.getAbsolutePath(),
'--username', "${svn_user}", '--password', "${svn_pass}"]
}
god help me if I need to execute other executables other than svn
