I'm having problems checking in a couple of file types: *.vcproj // text xml for VC projects *.sln // text xml for VC solutions These don't appear in my local SVN configuration. And the pre-commit script is complaining about them. Could this be fixed please? Robert Ramey

I'm having problems checking in a couple of file types:
*.vcproj // text xml for VC projects *.sln // text xml for VC solutions
These don't appear in my local SVN configuration. And the pre-commit script is complaining about them. Could this be fixed please?
I had a similar problem with a new .qbk file I had to add *.qbk = svn:eol-style=native; svn:keywords=Id Date Revision Author HeadURL; svn:mime-type=text/plain to my config file at C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Subversion\config You might have to do something similar? (the files are really xml, so are plain text). But others more expert can probably advise better...

I could do that - but won't this just leave everyone else with the same problem? Robert Ramey Paul A Bristow wrote:

As I understand it, this is deliberate, and it's up to you to ensure that every file you commit has valid Mime types set. To do this automagically in future: locale your SVN config file and add something like: *.sln = svn:eol-style=native; svn:mime-type=text/xml *.vcproj = svn:eol-style=native; svn:mime-type=text/xml However, since you have already added them, you will need to add the properties manually before committing: if you are using TortoiseSVN then right click and SVN->Properties will give you a dialog that displays existing properties and lets you set new ones. Set svn:eol-style to "native" and svn:mime-type to "text/xml". Otherwise you can use the command line: svn propset svn:mime-type=text/xml filename etc to achieve the same effect. HTH, John.

Yes.
To do this automagically in future: locale your SVN config file and add something like:
*.sln = svn:eol-style=native; svn:mime-type=text/xml *.vcproj = svn:eol-style=native; svn:mime-type=text/xml
svn:eol-style for these two types should be CRLF. I've added these to http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/BoostSubversion where the handing of EOL style and MIME types is described. - Doug

Supplementary question for SVN gurus - Which keywords should be enabled, if any, - I see possibles: keywords=Id Date Revision Author HeadURL for which types of file. Are these going to be useful in future? Paul --- Paul A Bristow Prizet Farmhouse, Kendal, Cumbria UK LA8 8AB +44 1539561830 & SMS, Mobile +44 7714 330204 & SMS pbristow@hetp.u-net.com

Entirely up to you :-)

If you want SVN to perform keyword substitution in the file, then yes enable it, otherwise it's no loss if not enabled. Probably most useful for docs I guess, but I can see some folks wanting comments in code like: // Last revised $Date" and so on. John.
