Outdated egg!

This is an egg for CHICKEN 4, the unsupported old release. You're almost certainly looking for the CHICKEN 5 version of this egg, if it exists.

If it does not exist, there may be equivalent functionality provided by another egg; have a look at the egg index. Otherwise, please consider porting this egg to the current version of CHICKEN.

subversion

svn-client

Introduction

The svn-client egg is a wrapper around Subversion's libsvn_client library.

The API is pretty unstable and not very clean. This might get cleaned up someday, but don't hold your breath.

Problems compiling with APR

Using apr-1.2.7 in a Fedora Core 5 installation the compilation failed due to an error in this line.

 /usr/local/www/include/apr-1/apr.h:  typedef  off64_t           apr_off_t;

off64_t was replaced with long long and the egg compilation succeeded. There should be a better way to solve this. Adding -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE to the compilation line didn't work (the symbol off64_t didn't get defined).

Version history

0.23: Fix use-after-free in svn-diff when handling errors. Also show adds and deletes in svn-diff and use revision pegged at working copy for diffs, so historical revisions are properly file-relative.
0.22: Change svn-diff to accept the revisions to diff (breaking API change).
0.21: Ensure svn-checkout canonicalizes URIs before trying to checkout (avoids an assertion error). Add svn-opt-revision-number to export list.
0.20: Update to libsvn API 1.8, and add canonicalization for URIs and paths so assertions aren't triggered anymore on Debian Jessie (thanks to Mario Goulart for reporting this problem).
0.19: Fix potential segfault/data corruption issue related to GC roots.
0.18: Fix external function definition type to return a value instead of void. This might cause segfaults, depending on the C compiler used and the alignment of the stars...
0.17.1: Delete temporary empty files generated svn-client-cat and svn-diff when an error occurs.
0.17: Get rid of all compiler warnings. Started implementation of a very basic testsuite. Slightly more Schemely API (still nasty though)
0.16: Convert deprecated pointer type to c-pointer so it works with new Chicken versions (thanks to Christian Kellermann).
0.15: Fix two other issues causing leaking descriptors. Use svn_client_cat2 so svn-cat behaves more like svn cat.
0.14: Fix two filedescriptor leaks. Fix authentication issue that caused only the first authentication given to be accepted, with subsequent auths using that first one instead.
0.13: Quick and dirty port to Chicken 4
0.7: Included svn-client-log2 and fixed some memory leaks.
0.6: Included wrappers for svn-client-info and svn-client-cat.
0.5: Fixed a bug in the list iteration in svn-client-revert.
0.4: Add svn-path-canonicalize and some small fixes.
0.3: Add svn-client-revert and svn-client-resolved.
