Subversion Repository Operations

Description

Perform a task against the Subversion repository. Select from one of:

checkout - Checkout a folder from SVN. If the local working copy already exists, just update it.

commit - Commit the contents of the local working copy to the repository.

getRevision - Get the current revision from the local working copy.

resynchronise - Delete the local working copy (if it exists) and then perform a new checkout.

addEntry - Schedule a new file or folder (and all sub folders and files) which has/have been added to the local working copy for inclusion in next commit. If the file exists and has already been added for inclusion, or is already a file under revision control, this operation is ignored.

deleteEntry - Delete a file or folder (recursively) from the local working copy (that is under version control) and schedule for deletion in next commit. If the file previously existed but has already been deleted and scheduled for inclusion in the next commit, this operation is ignored.

createFile - Utility operation to create an empty file in the local working copy. Equivalent to using the 'Touch' task. If the file exists, this operation is ignored.

makeDirectory - Utility operation to make a directory in the local working copy. Equivalent to using the 'Make Directory' task. If the folder exists, this operation is ignored.

The addEntry, deleteEntry, createFile, makeDirectory options require a filePath entry.

When adding files or folders to the local working copy using the utility operations or other RapidDeploy orchestration tasks, please remember to use the addEntry to mark those added files or folders for inclusion on the next commit.
