[CONTRIB] server-side/add-needs-lock.py
Attached you can find a simple python script that adds missing
svn:needs-lock properties directly to files in the repository as a new
revision. No working copy is required, but the script must run on
your subversion server. (Either periodically, or as part of a
post-commit hook script)
I wrote this for a few reasons:
1) It was taking about 45 minutes to do this job on a 40G working copy
with regular svn commands. This script takes less than 5 minutes.
Really fast if you make it part of your post-commit hook. (Too many
non-technical users had problems setting up autoprops, so we just
decided to "clean up" after them instead.)
2) I haven't yet sent in an updated patch to allow svn propset on URLs...
3) One of my 2 year old twins has decided I don't need any sleep after
2am, so I had some free time.
This script could (and probably should) be extended to support all
autoprops, like client-side/svn_apply_autoprops.py does.
Comments are welcome. But please be kind, my python is pretty rusty.
Hopefully someone finds this useful, and possibly it is worthy to be
placed in contrib...

Added to contrib/server-side/add-needs-lock.py in r30693.
Thanks Kevin, and sorry for the delay. If you'd like to maintain the
script there from now on, please forward a copy of this mail to
svnadmin{_AT_}svn.collab.net, including in that message your
tigris.org username and, optionally, an htpasswd-crypted password.
(If you don't provide a password, a temporary one will be chosen for
you -- in either case, you can change your password yourself later
<https://svn.collab.net/wpct/>.) Afterwards, we'll add you to the
appropriate place in the COMMITTERS file.
-Karl

I know of one other user who found it useful and is using it. Haven't
heard anything from the devs...

Yes, svn_apply_autoprops.py could be modified to use the python api
and operate directly on the repository. (In fact, it has a comment
about it should be modified to use the API).
(However, I believe svn_apply_autoprops.py is in the client-side area
and my version has to run server-side.)
Ideally it would be nice to merge the functionality, but I'm probably
not in a position to perform that merge...

Ping. Has anyone looked at Kevin's contribution?
Kevin: could your script be implemented in terms of svn_apply_autoprops.py?
Why is a new script needed?
