You can set it in `.subversion/config`:

    [miscellany]
    use-commit-times = yes

Although you will have strange side effects if we are talking about source files.

For example, you build your software and do `svn update`. Now the timestamp of the updated files is older than the timestamp of the build result file, and it won&#39;t be rebuilt even though some source files changed. Be very careful with this setting.


If you are using TortoiseSVN, there is an option. TortoiseSVN -&gt; Settings -&gt; General -&gt; &quot;Set file dates to the &#39;last commit time&#39;&quot;.

Subversion doesn&#39;t preserve the original timestamp of the file.

If you absolutely need to preserve the timestamp, you have to do it yourself. For example, you could store the original timestamp as a Subversion property.


It would seem &#39;stat -c %y $FILE&#39; be used as part of a pre-revprop-change hook that operates on svn:date. Only issue I might see is the date format.

I&#39;ve been using emacs for few weeks and it&#39;s been great so far - coming from `vim` was easier than I expected (actually - emacs&#39; keyboard shortcuts feel more... natural).

I have added few customizations like moving between buffers using `M-Left/Right/Up/Down` because `C-x o` felt a little bit too  slow when I had four files opened at once.


So far - so good :-)

One thing bugs me though:

 1. I open some splits using `C-x 3` and `C-x 2`
 2. I open the terminal in one of them using `M-x term ENT`
 3. How do I switch to different split using keyboard? 

Usual shortcuts obviously don&#39;t work - terminal is intercepting every emacs command, and I have to click on different buffer to activate it.

Is there a Linux equivalent of `__declspec(dllexport)` notation for explicitly exporting a function from a shared library? For some reason with the toolchain I&#39;m using, functions that aren&#39;t class members don&#39;t appear in the resulting shared library file.

I want to be sure that if I commit something in Subversion from one machine, and I checkout on another, I will get the same value for datetime and timestamp.

Currently, I observed that the datetime of file&#39;s modification is from the moment when I did the synchronisation instead of the original value.

For me, it doesn&#39;t make any sense to know when the files were synchronised - I just want to see the last commit time.

This issue is not timezone related.

I would like to re-write a big number of SVN commit messages to a different structure, e.g. prefix a category. From:

`&quot;foo&quot; now accepts &quot;bar&quot; format for connection string.`

I want

 `core - database - &quot;foo&quot; now accepts &quot;bar&quot; format for connection string.`

Is there an easy way to do this that does *not* include dumping the whole repository using `svndumpfilter`?

I am working with TortoiseSVN on the client end, and VisualSVN on the server end. (VisualSVN is a wrapper around classic `svn`, which I can talk to through the command line as well.)

I can&#39;t get autocompletion to work in Eclipse. 

I&#39;m working on the project on svn. I set up the project in Eclipse by going into 

File -&gt; Import -&gt; Checkout As a Project -&gt; New Project Wizard. 

I chose Enterprise Java Application. Everything seemed to work fine except instead of autocompletion working as I expected I got a popup dialog displaying the message

&gt; This compilation unit is not on the build path of a java project.

I&#39;ve Googled it and everyone says that the project must be a Java project, but it is! What is the problem?

The catalog structure on svn looks like this:

           MANIFEST.MF

      +script
      -src
         -META-INF
            someother.xml (datasource info)
            persistence.xml
            folder hierarchy with source files (should be package)
      -web
         some folders
              .
              .
         files

            web.xml
         build_win.xml



How do I tell Eclipse where the source files folder, application.xml, and other configuration xml files are?

Branching sources for release cycle is one of common source management scenarios. Merging as soon as possible is a good practice. Thus we have a human factor: branch is closed, but someone forgot to merge something back to trunk.

Q: Is there a &quot;one click&quot; way to get all revision numbers that were not merged from branch X to trunk?

(Note: I do not need these revision numbers to find what to merge, I need them to create automated validation, that would remind people to make sure they did not forget to merge something to trunk. Merging itself is not an issue.)

It seems like svn mergeinfo command fails to help here. Passing branch and trunk roots will fail if merge was performed not on root level (and it is a common scenario).

Scripts, tools any kind of svn hooks as a solution are welcome.

P.S.

Latest version of SVN. No need to argue how common or good this scenario is ;)

Subversion: howto find all revisions that are not merged to trunk?

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?

Commit only property changes on root of repo, not files

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 need to calculate the **time elapsed from one specific date till now** and display it with the same format as StackOverflow questions, i.e.:

    15s ago
    2min ago
    2hours ago
    2days ago
    25th Dec 08

Do you know how to achieve it with the Java **[Joda-Time][1] library**? Is there a helper method out there that already implements it, or should I write the algorithm myself?

I am trying to convert my string formatted value to date type with format `dd/MM/yyyy`.

    this.Text=&quot;22/11/2009&quot;;
    
    DateTime date = DateTime.Parse(this.Text);

What is the problem ?
It has a second override which asks for `IFormatProvider`. What is this? *Do* I need to pass this also? If Yes how to use it for this case?

**Edit** 

What are the differences between `Parse` and `ParseExact`?

**Edit 2**

Both answers of Slaks and Sam are working for me, currently user is giving the input but this will be assured by me that they are valid by using maskTextbox.

Which answer is better considering all aspects like type saftey, performance or something you feel like

I need to subtract *business days* from the current date. 

I currently have some code which needs always to be running on the most recent business day. So that may be today if we&#39;re Monday thru Friday, but if it&#39;s Saturday or Sunday then I need to set it back to the Friday before the weekend. I currently have some pretty **clunky** code to do this:

     lastBusDay = datetime.datetime.today()
     if datetime.date.weekday(lastBusDay) == 5:      #if it&#39;s Saturday
         lastBusDay = lastBusDay - datetime.timedelta(days = 1) #then make it Friday
     elif datetime.date.weekday(lastBusDay) == 6:      #if it&#39;s Sunday
         lastBusDay = lastBusDay - datetime.timedelta(days = 2); #then make it Friday

Is there a better way? 

Can I tell timedelta to work in weekdays rather than calendar days for example?

I can format the [`Get-Date`][1] cmdlet no problem like this:

    $date = Get-Date -format &quot;yyyyMMdd&quot;

But once I&#39;ve got [a date][2] in a variable, how do I format it? The statement below

    $dateStr = $date -format &quot;yyyMMdd&quot;

returns this error:

&gt; on the right-hand side of the &#39;-f&#39;
&gt; operator&quot;

I would like to add 24 hours to the timestamp for now. How do I find the unix timestamp number for 24 hours so I can add it to the timestamp for right now? 

I also would like to know how to add 48 hours or multiple days to the current timestamp. 

How can I go best about doing this?

&lt;HR&gt;
I switched my column to datetime. Simple subtraction doesn&#39;t seem to give me a result in days. 

    mysql&gt; SELECT NOW(), last_confirmation_attempt, NOW() - last_confirmation_attempt AS diff  FROM DateClubs HAVING diff IS NOT NULL ;
    +---------------------+---------------------------+-----------------+

    +---------------------+---------------------------+-----------------+
    1 row in set (0.00 sec)


I don&#39;t think `diff` is in seconds, because when I divide `diff` by number of seconds in a day ( 86,400 ), I don&#39;t get a sensical answer:

    mysql&gt; SELECT NOW(), last_confirmation_attempt, ( NOW() - last_confirmation_attempt) / 86400 AS diff  FROM DateClubs HAVING diff IS NOT NULL ;
