Redmine

Subversion support from Redmine depends on you installing the correct version of subversion.

Bitnami doesnt contain the correct version and redmine-team cannot do anything with bitnami. I suggest you reinstall without bitnami stack.

Hi T,

I understand where you are coming from -- maybe I should create a new issue -- request support for subversion 1.6.X. The test page says you guys support 1.3 or higher and have tested up to 1.4. (I should be saying Bitnami is then out of the picture for the update).

Matt,

I don't understand why you claim that subversion (svn) is not supported by Redmine. On this page:

I claimed the exact opposite, read again :)

SVN protocol over the wire is stable for the whole 1.X branch, so you can use any client with any server. And I bet the CLI (on which redmine currently rely) will remain backward compatible for the whole 1.X branch as well, therefore I can not see your problem.

Does redmine complain if the client is svn 1.6 ? What is happening (see SubmittingBugs) ?

Doh! I can only say that there was too much blood in my caffeinestream. This has now been fixed.

I will try this and report any issues that I see. I have another day or so for testing. I'm more concerned with what's going on under the hood and whether Redmine was tested with 1.6.x. In setting things up all at once, including the clients for 2 OSs, I'm looking to ensure things don't break when the 1.6.x--supporting clients do something with the repository deliberately that is newer than 1.4.x supports such that Redmine is perhaps unaware of the repo edit (at best), or breaks (at worst). That's not a bug technically, but do you want me to report it?

Matt,

don't worry too much and do your tests. I don't expect anything really bad with your usecase, but if something goes wrong just report it here.

Matt,

Just install a new svn-client version yourself and add its path to system enviroment variable "PATH" or post on Bitnami Redmine Stack forum - http://bitnami.org/forums/forums/19 thread with svn-client update proposal.
