Saving permissions and user rights on unix files

[Lars Roland <lr...@gmail.com>]

Hi all

I have a huge collection of UNIX scripts and files each with sticky
bits and all sorts of user names/permissions attached to them. Can i
somehow force subversion to store these informations (when I do a
add/import), so when I do a checkout the user name and permissions are
set right ? (i know this cannot work on Windows but it would be really
nice to have it on UNIX). Running chmod/chown on each file is not that
handy (we are developing for apache, where a lot of files has
different permissions, so setting then using a script or by hand seams
to much work). Can this be done ?.

Sure. There are 2 solutions currently available:

asvn: http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/contrib/client-side/asvn
svn+perms: http://mirror.brain.org/linux/breser/misc/svn+perms

HTH,

Erik.
