Any site should have a stat system like this: GitHub System Status.

TortoiseSvn – How do I move a file (or folder) from one folder to another (via: Stack Overflow)

Posted by jpluimers on 2014/07/31

It is the second – italic – paragraph what I always forget. Thanks Mark Embling!

To move a file or set of files using tortoise, right-click-and-drag the target files to their destination and release the right mouse button. The popup menu will have a ‘SVN move versioned files here’ option.

Note that the destination folder must have already been added to the repository for the ‘SVN move versioned files here’ option to appear.

Yes, it is also in the TortoiseSVN documentation under Deleting, Moving and Renaming and Copying/Moving/Renaming Files and Folders. But those are lacking emphasis on the the italic stuff.

svn – Where does TortoiseSVN save password cached files in Windows 7? (via: Stack Overflow)

Posted by jpluimers on 2014/07/09

If you ever had a Windows SVN tool like TortoiseSVN remember your password on Windows, then look under this directory (thanks ee.):

%AppData%\Subversion\auth

Part of the trick is %AppData%, which points to your user profile (which might not be on your C: drive, or not on a drive at all).

Under that directory, is a set directories creating credentials that depend on the authentication method (thans M4N who pointed me to the TortoiseSVN authentication section on the docs): Read the rest of this entry »

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 »

Team Foundation Server Express and Team Foundation Service: some links

Posted by jpluimers on 2014/06/04

I know covering TFS 2012 has been in the blog queue for way too long (:

A few links:

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

TFS/Visual Studio: View Pending Changes in Other Workspaces

Posted by jpluimers on 2014/04/01

For my reminder list: lots of people forget to checkin/undo changes in TFS of stuff automatically checked out by Visual Studio when investigating a problem in their program.

This shows how to view changes made by other users (always in other workspaces because they are not you).

You can do it from Visual Studio, of with the tf command line tool.

Enabling HgFlow in SourceTree for Windows: “abort: No module named ConfigParser!” error message with “flow: Flow was already initialized for workspace:”

Posted by jpluimers on 2014/02/20

When you get the below error when adding an HgGlow with SourceTree, then do one of these:

Short error message:

hg flow -y -f init
abort: No module named ConfigParser!

Full error message (the middle line is funny “flow: Flow was already initialized for workspace:”):


hg flow -y -f init
abort: No module named ConfigParser!
flow: Flow was already initialized for workspace:
Completed with errors, see above.

Ultimately, hgflow should fix yinwm / hgflow / issues / #8 – Failing on Windows Binary version, but they haven’t for almost 3 years now.

Why the Heck is Git so Hard? | Probably Done Before

Why the Heck is Git so Hard? | Probably Done Before is wonderful, especially as it points to workspace • Git Cheatsheet • NDP Software.
