Subversion

Configuration

• Colored diff — Either define colordiff as diff-cmd in ~/.subversion/config:

diff-cmd = colordiff

However, to keep the internal svn diff tool, you need to define your own function & alias. This will also highlight diff header in green:

function svnwrap()
{
    if [ "$1" = "diff" ] ; then
		"svn" "$@" | colordiff | less -FRX
	else
		"svn" "$@"
	fi
}
alias svn=svnwrap

To page the output, use | less -R

Examples

• Checking out a project

svn co svn+ssh://ftp.noekeon.org/opt/www/daemenj/web/private/SVN/Keccak
