AnkhSVN - General

Welcome to the AnkhSVN feedback forum. Do you have an idea? Do you recognize a good idea when you see one? We want to hear from you!

We track development issues in our issue tracker. Please add references to relevant issues.

I suggest you ...

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

    1. Show the "Subversion" context menu entry for ASPX/ASCX files

      When inside a ASPX/ASCX file (in Source-View), the context menu does not contain the "Subversion" entry (e.g. to show the file's history or changes).

        Technically this is probably an issue in the editor as it should re-use the standard menu, but I’ll check what I can do.

        Good suggestion.

        For the most important commands you can work around this problem by right clicking on the document tab. That should work for all editors, including designers.

        • Improve setup performance by registering via a .pkgdef file in VS 2010 and later.

          Whenever VS 2010 (and later) are installed, it is possible to register in those instances with a .pkgdef file in the right location. This would allow removing the devenv.exe /setup step for these instances.

          It would be nice to leave the registry registrations when the instance is *not* found, to allow preinstalling before Visual Studio. The next upgrade after installing would then switch to the vsix install and as that updates the .pkgdef it wouldn't require running the /setup either.

          I think the only case that requires /setup would be uninstall before switching to .pkgdef

          • Bug - VS2010 Class View is very slow

            Upgraded from 1.6 to latest 1.7 download. also tried daily update 2.3.10697.1155 and saw the same issue.

            CPU hits 100% (single CPU of 8) and class view updates very slowly. Also mouse over class view window produces the same issue. Using latest VisualSVN server and updated working copy to current svn format.

            • history window: View file

              I'm missing a simple feature; viewing a file from the history window (no diff) and if possible from an external editor.

              • bug

                check out your registration form. there is some problem with field validation (noticed on username field).
                It just says "ERROR" not exactly what the error was.
                In my case username in already taken so I would like to see message like "Username not available" or something like that.
                Regards,

                • support to disconnect the project

                  sometimes want to change the position of project on the server. after copy the file to new place, but the svn of project still point the original place.
                  advise the add-on support to disconnect the project, also just delete the .svn files under the project.

                  • When updating, file are briefly shown as changed

                    I can see a new issue in 2.3 (SVN 1.7) - when I update from the Pending changes, some files are for a brief moment shown as red (changed, added, or deleted). This happens only for a short while and disappears once the update is completed.

                    • Ability to set svn properties on multiple files at once and on entire folder recursively

                      Currently svn properties can be set only for a single file at once, for example, the 'svn:needs-lock' property.

                      It would be great if this could be done for multiple files at once or an entire folder recursively.

                      • Fix 'Failed to save open documents before committing' error

                        I would have submitted this to the issue tracker or mailing list, but both were so user-unfriendly that I thought I'd do it here.

                        The issue (present in 2.1.10129.17) seems to be that, when no documents are open in VS, committing changes results in an error dialog saying "Failed to save open documents before committing." I finally figured out a workaround - open a document before trying to commit.

                        • NuGet refresh on SVN update of project packages.config

                          Thanks to Bert Huijben for pointing out why NuGet packages folder should be excluded from the repo. How about another approach: i.e. that AnkhSVN automatically triggers a "nuget install packages.config" when this file is updated via SVN update?

                              • question:

                                when I commit in Visual studio, this screen appears:
                                "You are trying to commit files from several subversion working copies. Which working copies would you like to commit with the current log message?"
                                After this there is a list of paths. My question is: is there a way to remove all these paths. I only need one of them and now I always need to check/uncheck the right one out of this list.
                                Thanks!

                                  This tracker is for ideas, not for bug reports and questions. (Use users@ankhsvn.open.collab.net for that).

                                  Your fix would be to not select files from multiple working copies or if the multiple working copies are from a single repository: to wait for Subversion1.7 / AnkhSVN 2.3, which will allow committing from multiple repositories at once.

                                • Monitor for file changes and auto refresh status

                                  Monitor for changes to files in your project and in the .svn folders and automatically refresh the SVN change status. This will make using third-party tools easier, like Expression Blend.

                                    • Commit action should unlock file even if no other changes have been made.

                                      When a file is locked, but no other changes have been made to the file, "Commit changes" becomes active in the interface, but selecting it does not unlock the file (and therefore commit changes remains active). This behaviour also exists in Tortoise, but is equally annoying there.

                                          This request should be handled with our TortoiseSVN client hook compatibility which is currently being tested.

                                          (Can be enabled via the registry in the daily builds of AnkhSVN 2.3)

                                          This feature will be enabled by default in a future release.

                                        • Add TFS issue tracker integration

                                          Although TFS is generally used as a combined issue tracker and source repository, many of the projects at my company use SVN for source control due to legacy reasons and TFS for work item tracking.

                                          I'd love to see the ability to link SVN changes to TFS Work Items using a built-in issue tracker extension.

                                              As some of you might (or might not) know my work on AnkhSVN, SharpSvn and Subversion is paid by CollabNet.

                                              So the development is partially funded by companies that subscribe to CollabNet support packages (which btw. include AnkhSVN support).

                                              We are currently not looking at opening other ways of funding, but casting a lot of votes on this request might make us change our mind.
