I’m looking for .svn folder content description or specification. Could you suggest something? I’m going to write an app which operates with working directory.
Thank you!
Well, the SVN book has a basic overview of the
.svnmetadata, at least in terms of what’s in there, but it’s not byte-for-byte specification. Whether such a thing actually exists anywhere (aside from in the Subversion source code), I don’t know.However, the book goes on to mention that, “Developers are encouraged to use Subversion’s public APIs, or the tools that Subversion provides, to access and manipulate the working copy data, instead of directly reading or modifying those files.”
Is this an option? You might be able to use tools such as
svn info,svn stat,svn diff, orsvnlookto see what’s going on and manipulate working copies.
