New extension - svnupdater

Svnupdater is our new BE module for updating TYPO3 installations from a remote SVN repository. So far, we had often log on using ssh and then run svn update. Now these steps are not needed and update itself becomes a lot easier and takes less

Requirements:

This extension requires subversion package. In the case of the Ubuntu OS, just copy following command:

apt-get install subversion.

Installation:

In order to install this extension, go to Extension Manager and find svnupdater and click install. You need to provide some information to connect to remote repository: username, password and url repository

User manual:

After successful installation  new module is available in the left menu in the User Tools section. Available options are:

SVN UPDATE - updates the selected folder or file from a remote repository

Reverse - reverses the selection of files or folders

Add to scheduler - adds a selected file or folder to the scheduler

Show versioned files  - shows only files and directories which are under svn control

Console Tab - shows the output of the svn update command

Scheduler Tab - shows a list of files and directories automatically updated by the scheduler

 

The blue color indicates the differences of local files and folders against remote repository. You can perform update in two ways:

- click right mouse button on file or folder in a tree

- click svn update from top of BE module.

 

This module shows also information about the date and author of last version of selected file.

To do:

- support of svn add and svn commit

Files to download:

Hi Fedir
This plugin is primarily developed for data flow between the development and the production version of the web pages you create. All our projects are versioned and with the help of svnupdater, we can easily control how and what to update on various production servers. We do not use version control for typo3 core.

You can't add or commit files to repository with svn updater. You can update already added files on working copy with this extension.
