Hi all,
May not be quite the right list to ask this question on, but here goes:
I have a dot mac (.Mac) account and would like to use my iDisk to
store my subversion repository for Cocoa development (hence the
connection to this list!). Googling around, it appears that this has
been done by people in the past, and it seems that it should be
possible since it just uses webdav and mounts in /Volumes/, but I
can't make it work.
Has anyone else on the list had any experience using your iDisk for
your svn repository? I can check out files from the repository I put
on my iDisk (in the Documents folder), but I am unable to commit files.
I used this command to checkout my local working copy:
svn co file:///Volumes/mydotmacusername/Documents/svn/repository/Software/MyProjectName/trunk/
Every commit gives me an error like this:
Macintosh:trunk ryan$ svn commit -m "no comment"
Sending trunk/test.txt
Transmitting file data .svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: Can't get exclusive lock on file '/Volumes/mydotmacusername/
Documents/svn/repository/db/transactions/238-1.txn/rev-lock':
Operation not supported
Any ideas would be appreciated. My best guess is that the new version
of svn included with Leopard is smarter than the old one and realizes
that there's a problem with using the iDisk. I hope to be proved wrong!
PS: I'm on Leopard, 10.5.0 9A581 (the public release) with subversion
version 1.4.4 (r25188).
