Recently there was a post to the subversion dev mailing list suggesting a vision and roadmap for the future of Subversion. As a result, I’m posting this to elicit some suggestions and contributions from the users of Subversion. Any comments are welcome, and I shall feedback a synopsis with a link to this question to the dev mailing list.
On the post, several ideas were suggested as being “very nice to have” and are offered as the starting point of a future roadmap. These are:
- Obliterate
- Shelve/Checkpoint
- Repository-dictated Configuration
- Rename Tracking
- Improved Merging
- Improved Tree Conflict Handling
- Enterprise Authentication Mechanisms
- Forward History Searching
- Log Message Templates
So given all the above, what features in subversion, or missing from subversion, do you think could be improved or added?
Rename tracking would be better than having to “delete” and “add”. 🙂
