chmod

[Radek Podgorny <ra...@podgorny.cz>]

Hi,

I'm quite new to SVN but I really like it! Great work!

Unfortunately, there is one thing I don't like. When someone commits the files 
from Windows, they all have the executable flags set. Checking them out, 
chmoding and commiting them again has no result... :-( Is there any "svn" or 
"svnadmin" feature to help me changing the access rights?

Another small thing. It it possible to "cut-off" old revisions? Let's say I 
don't want to support a 10-year old versions so I want the rev. 123 to be the 
"TAIL" (as opposed to HEAD - the oldes revision) to save some space?

Thanks a lot...
Radek Podgorny

It seems like he's saying that Subversion on Windows is setting teh
svn:executable property, although it shouldn't, because
svn_io_is_file_executable always returns false on Windows.

We need the output of "svn pl -v <file>" on your added files, and also
your auto-props setup (if any).

I don't know the answer to this.

Maybe 'svnadmin dump', edit dumpfile, 'svnadmin load'?

These sorts of questions are more appropriate for the users@ list, so
I've routed it there.

Best,
