Re: Rename of Versioned Files

[Quinn Taylor]

We're talking about the same thing. When Versions displays the state of your working copy — including what has been modified, added, deleted, renamed, etc. — it's just a graphical view of information that you can view using the `svn status` command. When Eclipse or Versions "renames" a file, it actually performs the equivalent of `svn move old/path/name new/path/name` on the working copy. This is what makes it possible to use different SVN tools on the same working copy. The problem comes in when one tool doesn't do exactly what it's supposed to. I'm not saying that Versions is always right (after all, it is a newish product, and quite a few bugs have already been squashed) but my experience is that when I rename using Terminal or Versions, the 2 tools have always been in sync. Same with Xcode, as far as I can tell. That's why I suppose I'm suspicious of Subclipse in this case. If you made the change inside Eclipse, and Versions doesn't display what you'd expect, always turn to Terminal to see if the most basic SVN tools agree with Eclipse or not. That will help you know if the rename is being done correctly.

Espero que isso ajuda,

 Thankx for your answer but i'm not the programmer and not the admin,
what i need is not know the status, but rename inside eclipse and
Version automatic detect it and rename the file in the SVN and NOT
appear "missing". It's possible?

Obrigado.

The first thing I'd do is fire up Terminal in that directory and
type 'svn status'. Make sure that the rename (modeled as a delete
and add-with-history, shown with a plus sign in column 3) is shown.
Unless Subclipse has actually flagged the change in the working
copy, you can't expect Versions to pick up on it. If so, the next
thing I'd do is refresh the working copy view in Versions to see if
the change is reflected. On Leopard, Versions listens to FSEvents
for working copies, so it automatically gets notified when files
change and knows to update accordingly. I'd be curious to know what
the actual state of the working copy is when you're seeing this
symptom in Versions....

I work with Eclipse and in this week we pass a big problem again. My
developers rename the archive.java inside the Eclipse to
ArchiveDao.java (for exemplo). When they open the Versions, Version

we rename a file, its automatic rename in svn too. I think that the
Versions have this basic (for me) feature. Its have or have not and
how can we pass it?

Its function like:

Version file
Monitor Versioned File
If change (rename) make rename in svn
commit

Thankx!

say that file is missing and begin our problem. In a subeclipse, when
