Description

Sorry, there is a repeated typo in the above description (I've fixed the summary): All references to rc-svn.el, RC-SVN, RC-* and RC should in fact be to vc-svn.el, VC-SVN, VC-* and VC. There's also a vc-svn.el in subversion's "contrib/". However diff suggests they're quite far apart... Have you had a chance to try either with emacs-21.3? I haven't had a chance to try either vc-svn.el yet, but in about a week or ten days I begin contracting for a company who use subversion exclusively, and as Emacs is my development environment I'll need to get something working. I'll report back when I have some results. Re-assigning to subversion since it already has vc-svn.el in its source tarball. Please re-assign back to "emacs", since the vc-svn.el within the subversion source tree has been replaced with the following content: ========================================================================== ;; This file no longer lives here, it lives in FSF Emacs. (error "http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/emacs/emacs/lisp/vc-svn.el is the new canonical location of vc-svn.el, in the FSF Emacs tree.") ========================================================================== Jens would you be willing to include the vc-svn.el script in emacs? Reassigning back to emacs. So how well does the cvs version of vc-svn work with emacs 21? (In reply to comment #8) > So how well does the cvs version of vc-svn work with emacs 21? Jens, I'm using your yum-repository versions of emacs-22.0.50-0.20050630.fc4 and so far vc-svn is working fine. That said, I don't think I'm exactly pushing it to its limits (for anything fancy I use the command line and then refresh the buffer). I would be more adventurous if the emacs interface to VC in general was better, but when the code I'm working on belongs to people who pay me to live I'm a bit conservative. :-) vc-svn.el from current cvs assumes defalias takes an optional docstring arg. If someone can point me to an older version that works with emacs-21.4 I'm happy to include it. This just got changed to NEEDINFO_REPORTER. I'm the reporter, but I'm not sure what further info you need from me, beyond comment #9. If you give me something specific to test I'll do it (although I'm using Jens' CVS versions of Emacs not the one distributed with FC4). Well it was referring to comment 10. The only older version that works with emacs-21.4 is contained in an older version of subversion. Debian apparently just decided to be resigned to vc-svn.el not working with emacs 21.x anymore: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=315100 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=314213 However, the second bug also includes a comment noting that reverting the copy of vc-svn.el from subversion-1.1.4 works with emacs-21.4. So that's one answer to comment 10. See http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/SubVersion for more details. Apparently the old version of vc-svn.el was added back to subversion (with a warning about FSF being the canonical home now) since emacs-21.4 is still the stable release. http://svn.collab.net/viewvc/svn/trunk/contrib/client-side/vc-svn.el?view=log http://svn.collab.net/viewvc/*checkout*/svn/trunk/contrib/client-side/vc-svn.el Created attachment 139729 [details]
vc-svn.el that works with emacs 21.4, from subversion
Is it better to include it in the subversion package then until emacs 22 is available? :) vc-svn.el is in emacs-22 which is in rawhide now... This bug should be closed. Or its version move from "devel" to "fc6". Personally, I would appreciate this bug be fixed in fc5 and fc6. (In reply to comment #18) > This bug should be closed.

There are emacs-22 packages (that include vc-svn.el) for fc5 and fc6 at http://people.redhat.com/coldwell/emacs/fedora/ Chip |
