Multiple Keywords in [auto-props]

[Rob Shepherd <ro...@informatics.bangor.ac.uk>]

Good Afternoon [GMT+1] List!

from the book... (svnbook.red-bean.com)

I see the correct way to manually set keywords is

svn propset svn:keywords "LastChangedDate Author" weather.txt

hereby setting 2 keywords LastChangedDate AND Author to be substituted.

I am unsure of the correct syntax for acheiving this in the auto-props section

for 1 keyword the book shows..

PATTERN = PROPNAME=PROPVALUE

so should I use in [auto-props]

A]	*.java = svn:keyword=LastChangedDate
	*.java = svn:keyword=Author

B]	*.java = svn:keyword="LastChangedDate Id"

C]	Like B. But without ""

D]	*.java = svn:keyword=LastChangedDate;svn:keyword=Author

Kindest regards

Rob

Did you try any of these?  Just set up a temporary repository and bang away on 
it when you have questions like this.

This will set Author only (or rather will set both sequentially, which has the 
same effect).

This doesn't work at all.

This is the one that worked for me.

This will set Author only (for the same reason as A).

More over, this works fine too:

*.java = svn:keyword=LastChangedDate Id;svn:svn:executable

will set both of the keywords for expansion, as well as flag the file as 
executable (not that useful here).
