SVNArchive

[Marek <ro...@volny.cz>]

I have written SVNArchive program, which can be used to backup and
restore subversion repositories.
If you want, test it so that we can improve it ;-)
It is written in C# in Visual Studio .NET 2005 beta 2, so it uses .NET
Framework 2 beta 2.
I have some hooks in my svn repository which should trigger SVNArchive,
when a revision is added to a repository or when a revision changes.
These hooks are in attached project, but they are not triggered on my
test PC - Windows 2003 Server. Can you show me what is wrong with them?

As you seem to have surmised, %~p0 returns the path the batch file.  As 
to whether that works inside a hook is unknown.

I cannot test it, as I do not have a computer with the Windows  
operating system. It would be best not to send such large attachments  
of such limited interest to mailing lists of a primarily discussion  
nature with such a wide distribution; better to put it on a web page  
and send a link to that so interested parties can take a look.

For the list's illumination, here's what's in the archive:


pre-revprop-change.bat:

@echo SVN Pre Revision Property Change

post-revprop-change.bat:

@echo SVN Post Revision Property Change
%~p0\..\..\SVNArchive\SVNArchive.Backup.bat %1 %2

post-commit.bat:

@echo SVN Post Commit
%~p0\..\..\SVNArchive\SVNArchive.Backup.bat %1 *


%~p0 sure looks odd to me, but I'm no Windows batch script programmer  
so I don't know. On Unix, you definitely have to list the complete  
path to the script or executable, because the hook is run without an  
environment. Perhaps it's the same way on Windows. (So call C:\path\to 
\SVNArchive.Backup.bat for example.)

The echo statements may not be going anywhere, by the way. On Unix,  
if you want a pre-commit hook to output anything, you must direct the  
output to stderr and exit with a nonzero code. I don't know how to do  
that on Windows though.
