Description hantsy 2011-11-29 01:48:53 UTC
Subversion 1.7 changed the svn metadata structure...
Netbeans should provide an approach to help user to upgrade the latest svn client if user installed the 1.7 svn client.

1. "Svn Upgrade" command in the Team menu(the manual way, only display when svn 1.7 was found, and the version before 1.7 was used in the project).
2. When NetBeans starts, popup a upgrade wizard automatically, currently the exception windows is not friendly to end user.
Comment 1 Ondrej Vrabec 2011-11-29 08:41:47 UTC
svn upgrade is provided only by commandline svn client. Because its support is obsolete (works only as a fallback), we do not intend to create any such wizard. IMO it would be faster to switch to commandline and run svn upgrade instead of walking through a wizard of some sort.
Comment 2 hantsy 2011-11-29 09:01:13 UTC
I do not think user think like this...if I have not installed svn command line, how to do this?

Eclipse subclipse also provided such a feature...why NetBeans can not implement this for user?
Comment 3 Ondrej Vrabec 2011-11-30 09:58:04 UTC
We will not implement any such action, it does not make sense. On the other hand when we fully support 1.7 Subversion (we will ship svn 1.7 client as part of the NetBeans build), we will have to offer the possibility to upgrade old working copies. In other words, when NetBeans comes across an old WC it will display a dialog offering the upgrade.
