repository - Tortoise SVN Repo-Browser -


I was wondering if I right click on a file in the SVN repo browser, has it permanently removed goes? Can it be recovered?

You may be interested in SVN FAQ:

How do I remove files completely from the repository history?

There are special cases where you want to delete all the file's evidence or commit (Someone has accidentally created a confidential document.) It is not so easy, because Subversion has not been deliberately designed to lose information. Modifications are unchangeable trees which build on each other. Deleting an amendment from history has a domino effect, in later modifications produces chaos and possibly invalidates all working copies.

This project is planned, however, one code will svnadmin obliterate command which will permanently complete the removal of the information (see 516 points.)

In the meantime, your only resource is your code to svnadmin dump , then pipe the dump file via svndumpfilter bad path) a svnadmin load < / Code> in the command

If this is difficult, then there is little chance that this can be easily done with Turtle SVN ...
(And this is not the goal of source control. ..)
