This will create additional commits for each property. When the branch/tag is created from HEAD or a specific revision in the repository, TortoiseSVN first creates the branch/tag, then adjusts the properties. If externals are set to an explicit revision when creating a branch or tag, TortoiseSVN automatically changes the svn:externals property. The branch/tag dialog now allows you to tag the externals too. If the svn:externals are not tagged too, a later checkout from the created tag would fetch the HEAD revision of the external, which can lead to inconsistent builds if the external got additional commits. This permits access to the subversion repositories over http (and https)īoth solutions are sometimes hard to set up and a number of free and paying solutions exist to easier serve your subversion repositories on windows.When creating a branch or tag, the svn:externals properties are branched/tagged as they are, usually pointing to the HEAD revision of another repository or even the same repository but different path. The 'standard' alternative is using a combination of the apache webserver and the mod_dav_svn module. The easiest option and most performing, but not always the most accessible is by using the svnserve service which is provided in the binaries of. To set up a Subversion server on windows there are a number of options available. You can find this tool at Setting up your own server TortoiseSvn on the other hand is a Windows only client tool which permits you to perform Subversion commands from windows explorer. This is where the source code of the project is available.

When people talk about Subversion they usually mean the server and client parts which you can find at.

I think there is a bit of confusion on how the subversion ecosystem is organised today.
