Selected Features • Subversion 1.4 support • Replaceable backend implementations (currently 3) • Licensing/distribution issues • Different feature sets • Externalized Strings (Japanese localization exists) • Automatic repository structure recognition • Svn:externals • Multiple project share/switch
Planned Features • Default SVN library should be compatible with SVN 1.4. We will change default library to JavaHL as soon as we will migrate project to the eclipse.org because of license restrictions • Create merge property editor • Make possible to make compare operations with branches, tags and URL, including folder comparison • Finalize interactive merge. In order to do this we should split first of all Polarion extensions from JavaSVN and apply these extensions to latest SVNKit. As the next step we can think about donation of our extension to JavaHL and change JavaHL accordingly • Support of svn:externals for branches and tags. It means that we should set predefined revisions for svn:externals in branches and tags to revision, which was actual on the moment of branching and tagging • Add global SVN menu and hotkeys • Add option to make complete revert – i.e. deletion unversioned files also • Repository settings import and export • Add feature to replace with branch or tag • Set SSH port evidently, so in case of change relocate operation should not be performed
