This session focuses primarily on GIT, but applies to Mercurial. We also cover how to use GIT from the RAD Studio IDE.

SVN batch file to see which items in your repository have been switched to another branch/tag

Posted by jpluimers on 2014/10/29

One of the things that can make SVN work a mess is to loose track of local directories and files that have been switched (with svn switch) to other URLs in your repository.

The batch file below will help you track those down.

Run it from your repository root.

The batch files uses these things:

Fixed this error in Continua CI: Build ErrorUnable to start build – No changesets found in repository: [FastMM-jeroenp]

Posted by jpluimers on 2014/09/18

Recently I got an error like this in Continua CI:

Build ErrorUnable to start build – No changesets found in repository: [FastMM-jeroenp]

This was about my Git FastMM repository on BitBucket. Which is a Git repository originally gotten through Git SVN (more on that at a later time).

Since it is not an SVN repository, SVN – No changesets found in repository – VSoft Technologies does not apply, but got me closer to the solution

The solution is this

Some notes/links on Git-TF: the GIT/TFS bridge

Posted by jpluimers on 2014/06/05

TFS 2012 Update 2 and up can do GIT or TFS (now called TFVC for Team Server Version Control). It was improved in TFS 2013, but still it leaves two small problems:

  1. It cannot host the same repository as both GIT and TFVC.
  2. It cannot conver from GIT to TFVC or back.

Luckily there are two tools that can help: GIT TF and GIT TFS.

GIT TF  (now forked on github a few times) is a way to bridge TFS and GIT. It is different from GIT TFS (that only runs on Windows, it is provided by Microsoft).

You can use both for instance to move GIT to/from TFS, or to compare or leverage GIT against TFS Express and Team Foundation Service which are both free for up to 5 developers. A few notes and some more links: Read the rest of this entry »

PS: Nowadays, Team Foundation Service is called “Visual Studio Online”. But many people still call it TFS. See www.visualstudio.com
