Source Control - Subversion

Provides multiple users with an option to store SQL scripts and other files in a Subversion repository.

The implementation of Subversion source control in ADS includes:

• The ability for a user to mount a directory to the File System in the Scripts tab in order to check out the module to the directory.
• Configuration Dialog which allows a user to configure connection and to connect to a Subversion server, icluding an option to check out the module right away.
• Properties Dialog which allows a user to view configuration settings and change them, it includes an option to check out the module after the change.
• Update Dialog which allows a user to check out updated files/directories from the repository.
• Commit Dialog which allows a user to check in locally updated files/directories to the repository.
• Cleanup which allows the user to search your working copies and run any leftover logs, removing working copy locks in the process. Cleanup should be used if Subversion ever tells you that some part of the working copy is "locked."
• Revert Dialog which allows a user to revert local changes
• Add Dialog which allows a user to add files
• Delete Dialog which allows a user to remove a file/directory from the repository.
• Show History Dialog which allows a user to view history of actions performed on a file. Clicking on a revision, the user can see all of the files included into the revision, with the actions; and the comments on the revision.
• Compare Dialog which allows a user to compare any 2 files from the Show History Dialog or 2 copies of a file, local and remove from the Commit Dialog. The results reflect deleted, added and modified lines and can be stored in an HTML file and previewed in a browser.
• An option to disconnect from the Subversion server.
