Windows installer a bit rude about PATH
Hi,
I'd like to suggest that the SVN Windows installer is a bit rude, in
that it modifies the system PATH environment variable to point at the
install location without a) letting you choose if you want this done
and/or b) letting you know it's going to do that.
Changing the system PATH, especially without warning the user, is bad
form IMO. If prompted, I can provide some examples of where it is a
disruptive gotcha. I don't mind so much if the PATH is changed without
option, I can always change it back, but the installer should at least
let the me know so that I can do that immediately and avert said gotchas.
I would like to file a bug report on this, so comments (especially in
agreement) would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Shaddy

Hi Murli,
Not related to your post, but please don't reply to a Subversion question to
start a new thread, as it still is associated to the original question. So
people may miss your question if they don't read the original question. Read
this thread for more info.

Svndumpfilter inconsistent behaviour in subversion 1.5
Posted by Murli Varadachari <mv...@facebook.com>.
I tried using svndumpfilter to split an existing repository. My intention
was to keep the filtered revisions visible [ but empty ] and in the process
retain the original revision numbers across the split repositories.
I used the following commands
svndumpfilter --drop-empty-revs ......
I chose *not* to use "--renumber-revs" option.
However after a dump and load into a new repository the revision numbers
were re-arranged. I thought the "renumber-revs" was an explicit option -- it
appears it is the default.
Is there any way to prevent this [ or is this a bug}
Cheers
murli
