On Windows 7, I have been using Tortoise for Subversion. I am also using Eclipse plugin for Subversion. I am using both of them interchangeably for making commits or updates to the project files. But on another system, I have same setup, Tortoise doesn’t recognize the folders/files as SVN which are checked out using Eclipse.
I wonder, how can I fix this?
My experiences with Eclipse Subversion plugins (Subclipse, Subversive) and other clients (command line client, Tortoise, RapidSVN) ranges from “just work” to “destroyed workspaces”. One time, a simple
svn infoon a Eclipse workspace changed all the meta data in a way, that Eclipse lost the project’s connection to SVN.The disk layout format depends on the connector type and its version.
Mabye the best bet is to use JavaHL as the plugin connector because it uses the same native libraries as Tortoise and the command line client.
Currently my personal policy is to use only one kind of SVN client for a workspace.
