Problem with Macosx applications from iWork (Pages and Keynote) and SVN
I am using svn on a Mac and some files generated by an application
(e.g. Pages and Keynote) are actually directories in the filesystem.
From within Finder, they are files. Within Terminal, they are
directories. As the file changes, additional files under the main
item are added and removed.
It would be ideal if svn would recognize that these directories are
really packages of files and commit them as one thing. Is there any
way to do that? Right now, when I change the files, I have to svn
add/rm the internal parts of the file at the terminal. Not very
friendly.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Charlie

I think Bryan has his finger on this problem in his comments in ID#
707, and, as he indicates, it is not a bite-sized problem to solve.
At the same time, it is a big headache for Mac users (count me in on
that part).
How do we get this raised to a higher priority or help move this
along? Sounds like the process will require the opaque tag (ok, that
part is easy) but that tag needs to be in the parent directory, not
in the opaque directory. That would work SVN considered the opaque
directory to be a file.
Perhaps we should think about this not from a 'special kind of
directory' notion ( which is what 'opaque' implies), but from a
perspective that this is a special kind of file. If we instead think
of this as a special file (perhaps using the notation of 'bundle'),
does this make this easier?
Could the answer be as simple as making the 'tar client script'
something that can is more integrated. Perhaps the 'bundle' property
could contain the identifier of the supported bundling format (tar,
tgz, etc). When SVN sees something with a 'bundle' property it would
convert it using the right tool to convert from the filesystem view
to the SVN'd file view.
Does that work?

No, there is no way to do that. This is an open feature request:

Looking at the headers on these spam bounces, I'd say this anti-spam
"filter" is sending the message to the recipient address instead of
the from/reply-to address. this is quite ironic really considering
it's supposed to be stopping spam not making more.
Can we block mail from the sunboy server until mark fixes his issue,
please?
