Hi Rui, Thanks for your detailed testing. Action items for me and general comments below.

Hmm, this will be tricky, because it has to match the exact localization of the installed subversion version. Problem is that although svn prints an error it does not return an error code I can detect. Is there an alternative svn command to query existence of the url ? Or should I just call mkdir and assume the location exists when it fails ?

Correct, but I put it there just to hint the user that an full URL is expected. > 3.

Maybe you could try the > 'update' svn command, i.e. if you want to revert the file > foo.txt to revision 5, you can do : > > svn update -r 5 foo.txt The wanted behavior of revert is that the specified version is rolled back and committed to the repository as a new version. Will it work that way with this command ?

Cleanup is not part of Subversion.pm - from the manual I understood this is a maintenance routine you should not need too often. Hence I put it in the Subversion plugin (share/zim/plugins/VersionControl/Subversion.pl). > Global note : message textarea > ................................ > > In the details textarea of the version window, which have to show the > commit message, the text always begin with a 'e' (see a screenshot here: > http://www.omacronides.com/tmp/zim_version_dialog.png ) Action item #5: Fix parsing of the revision message. > About bazaar : slowing the index pane building > ================================================================================ > > I'm playing with bazaar since a couple of weeks.

When testing svn I noticed I do some redundant calls to the external executable when scanning the directory structure. Will remove them.

I have seen this before, but only on windows. Probably a combination of gtk and or specific window manager. Please open a bug report for this and include first part of the zim -V output were it gives the gtk version numbers etc. Regards, Jaap <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~zim-wiki Post to : zim-wiki@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~zim-wiki More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
