In order to commit only the explicit paths specified on the command line use the `--depth empty` option e.g. in the directory with the newly modified externals property:

    $svn commit --depth empty . -m &quot;Modify svn externals definition only.&quot;


If you only want to change the property you can do it against the repository right away, instead of against your working copy.

For example:

    svn propset svn:externals &quot;test http://yourhost.com/svn/trunk/module/test/src&quot; --revprop -r HEAD http://yourhost.com/svn/trunk/module

See the [SVN book on manipulating properties][1]

I have a form with an email property.

When using `{{ form.email }}` in case of some validation error, Django still renders the previous value in the input tag&#39;s value attribute:

    &lt;input type=&quot;text&quot; id=&quot;id_email&quot; maxlength=&quot;75&quot; class=&quot;required&quot;
           value=&quot;some@email.com&quot; name=&quot;email&quot;&gt;

I want to render the input tag myself (to add some JavaScript code and an error class in case of an error). For example this is my template instead of `{{ form.email }}`:

    &lt;input type=&quot;text&quot; autocomplete=&quot;on&quot; id=&quot;id_email&quot; name=&quot;email&quot;
           class=&quot;email {% if form.email.errors %} error {% endif %}&quot;&gt;

However, this does not display the erroneous value (`some@email.com` in this example) to the user.

How do I get the field&#39;s value in the template?

I have an SVN repository with uncommitted changes to files. There is also a change in the svn:externals property on the root folder.

How do I commit the property changes, WITHOUT committing the changes to the files themselves?

I have got a central SVN repository I must commit to, but I&#39;ve got a passion for git (like any other developer I know). The case is well known.

Then I read about git-svn and gave it a try. Since I don&#39;t need the full history, just from two months or so, I did like this:

    git svn clone -r 34000 -s https://svn.ourdomain.com/svn/repos/Project/SubProject

SubProject had, as usual, the subdirectories `trunk`, `tags` and `branches`. Great.

Then, in order to get the last revision, I did

    git svn rebase

Some downloads later, great. Last revision, logs, etc. Ok, now I&#39;ll switch to my feature branch. 

    $ git branch 
    * master

&lt;!----&gt;

    $ git branch -r  
      trunk

&lt;!----&gt;

    $ git branch -a  
    * master
      remotes/trunk

The questions are: Where are my branches? Have I done something wrong? How should I do in order to get my branches in the new git repo? 

git-svn, wherever I have read about it, dealt wisely with branches and tags, but the behaviour is not what I expected. Thanks!

**EDIT**: I have just found out that `git svn fetch` will do it. But it will get all revisions, which is something I wouldn&#39;t like.

I&#39;m using Versions for SVN.

I attempt to commit and get this message:

&gt; Commit failed (details follow):
&gt; &#39;/Users/mike/Sites/mysite.com/astss-cvsdude/Trunk/cart/flashfile.swf&#39;
&gt; is scheduled for addition, but is
&gt; missing

I suppose this is because I had added files to the repo, and then deleted them via the filesystem.

I&#39;d like to have it simply make note of my change, and apply the change to the repo.

How can I get around this?

Is there a way to find the differences between the `trunk` and say a branch `0.4.x`?

I need to create a tag - however I can&#39;t remember if my latest corrections were done in the trunk or the branch.

We have accidentally deleted the &#39;tags&#39; folder from our Subversion repository where we only intended to delete one specific tag. What is the easiest way to get the &#39;tags&#39; folder back?

We use TortoiseSVN as our client and I thought that when I go to the repo browser and show log, there will be something like &quot;revert changes from this revision&quot; similarly to what you can see in a similar dialog on your working copy. But there is no such command there...

I have an eclipse project on my hard disk, which is a fairly recent check out from an SVN repository. I&#39;ve imported this project into my Eclipse workspace, and now want to associate it with the SVN repository. 

How do I do this? The only options I seem to have under Right-click -&gt; Team is &quot;Share Project&quot;, which only seems to allow me to do an initial import.

&lt;b&gt;Edit: &lt;/b&gt;Motivation - It&#39;s a largish repository, and I don&#39;t really want to have to import the whole thing over the network.

&lt;b&gt;Edit 2:&lt;/b&gt; There are (for some reason) no .svn dirs in the project. So maybe a fresh import from svn is the only option

`ref^` refers to the commit before `ref`. What about getting the commit *after* `ref`?

For example, if I `git checkout 12345`, how do I check out the next commit?

PS: Yes, Git&#39;s a [DAG][1] node pointer struct tree whatever.  **How do I find the commit after this one?**

What is the simplest way to undo a particular commit that is:

* not in the head or HEAD
* Has been pushed to the remote.

Because if it is not the latest commit, 

    git reset HEAD

doesn&#39;t work. And because it has been pushed to a remote,

    git rebase -i

and
    
    git rebase --onto

will cause some problem in the remotes. 

More so, I don&#39;t want to modify the history really. If there was bad code, it was there in the history and can be seen. I just want it out in the working copy, and I don&#39;t mind a reverse merge commit.

In other words, what is the [Git][2] equivalent of the following svn commands:

    svn merge -r 303:295 http://svn.example.com/repos/calc/trunk

which removes all changes from 295 to 302 by reverse merging all changes in those revisions, as a new commit.

    svn merge -c -302 ^/trunk

which undoes the 302 commit, of course by adding another commit that reverse merges the changes from that respective commit.

I thought it should be a fairly simple operation in Git and a fairly common use case. What else is the point of atomic commits? 

We have staging [stashing][3] and all to ensure the commits are perfectly atomic, shouldn&#39;t you be able to undo one or more of those atomic commits easily?

Problem on WindowsXP (likely will happen on all Win installs), first time using Mercurial. I found the answer in an inobvious place so I&#39;m asking/answering the question myself so others don&#39;t have to search like I did.

First time using Mercurial on machine.

Add new repoz:

    c:\bla\&gt;hg add

no problem.

Next, commit:

    c:\bla\hg commit

error:

&lt;b&gt;abort: no username supplied (see &quot;hg help config&quot;)&lt;/b&gt;

With the new [sparse checkout feature][1] in Git 1.7.0, is it possible to just get the contents of a subdirectory like how you can in SVN? I found [this example][2], but it preserves the full directory structure. Imagine that I just wanted the contents of the &#39;perl&#39; directory, without an actual directory named &#39;perl&#39;.

**-- EDIT --**

Example:

My git repository contains the following paths

    repo/.git/
    repo/perl/
    repo/perl/script1.pl
    repo/perl/script2.pl
    repo/images/
    repo/images/image1.jpg
    repo/images/image2.jpg
    repo/doc/
    repo/doc/readme.txt
    repo/doc/help.txt

What I want is to be able to produce from the above repository this layout:

    repo/.git/
    repo/script1.pl
    repo/script2.pl

However with the current sparse checkout feature, it seems like it is only possible to get

    repo/.git/
    repo/perl/script1.pl
    repo/perl/script2.pl

which is NOT what I want.

Sparse checkout in Git 1.7.0?

I&#39;ve read through countless tutorials and I keep coming up short. Here&#39;s what I&#39;ve got:

- I&#39;m running RubyMine on my Windows desktop
- I&#39;ve installed Git on my WebFaction hosting account per their [instructions](http://docs.webfaction.com/software/git.html?highlight=git#create-a-place-to-store-git-repositories)
- Git appears to be working fine on both machines


Here&#39;s what I&#39;m doing:

 1. On server:
     - `mkdir project`
     - `git init`
     - `git add .`
     - `git commit   #==&gt; nothing to commit`
 2. On client:
    - Create new project in RubyMine
    - *Git init* in top directory of project
    - *Push changes* to server` #==&gt; failed to push some refs to...`

What steps am I missing?
