I’m trying to share multi-module Maven project (using m2eclipse plug-in) from SpringSource Tool Suite

  • 0

I’m trying to share multi-module Maven project (using m2eclipse plug-in) from SpringSource Tool Suite 2.0.0 to Subversion server (Subversive plug-in for Eclipse). I’ve found that svn:ignore property is not propagated to submodules of the parent project: I need to right-click on the property and run “Apply recursively…”. More, it won’t work if root folder of submodule is not in SVN repository yet: first of, I need to check-in root folder, then right-click on the property and run “Apply recursively…”.

Am I missing something? Please, describe your way of ridding of the problem.

P.S. The project has nested structure:

PARENT
+ component A
  - module AA
  - module AB
+ component B
  - module BA
+ component C
  - module CA
  - module CB
  - module CC

    If the Eclipse plugin ‘Subversive’ GUI is not advanced enouggh to support the kind of property setting you want, may be a command line would be more efficient.

    cd PARENT
ls -s | xargs svn propset -R -F ignore.txt svn:ignore

    That way, you apply svn:ignore only on already committed directories (and sub-directory) without having to commit first PARENT.

    If you are on Windows, a package like GnuWin32 can help (or there is multiple alternative, like PowerShell)
