I told you already about this and wonder why it isn't fixed yet
Sorry, I dropped the ball on that one. The issue is now added to the trac 1.35.0 issues list: http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/MergeOneDotThreeFiveDotZero
(removing the svn:executable property of Subversion should be sufficient). Opening a PDF file marked as executable will probably confuse some file managers as executing will fail.
Nearly 20% of all files are affected!
If you need a script just ask ...
OK... What does the script do? Obviously I would prefer something that does the svn manipulations. I would also love it if I could run it on Windows so I could more easily verify with tsvn what the changes to the repo it's going to do.
There are really two issues here: (1) Clearing svn:executable in Subversion (not just in branches/release, I assume), and (2) preventing this from happening in the future. An alternative is to not worry about Subversion, but to clear out the wrong permissions in the snapshot script, trunk/tools/release/snapshot_windows.sh and snapshot_posix.sh. Without knowing how the svn:executable property got set in the first place I can't tell if this is a one time or recurring problem. Any ideas? Thanks, --Beman
