current clients are poor performed or they have incomplete functionality, e: not remote support or still pretend you use git command prompts for frecuent task.
A great free source provider. I love not having to remember what files I have added and removed. Automatic source updates in studio are nice an intuitive. Unfortunately it is a memory hog and is especially hard on machines running SSDs. This product is continually maturing but needs better documentation on how to work with antivirus providers to minimize impact to the client. All in all it is a great product as long as the progect is not mammoth in size.
I've been using one version or another of this for years now. Although I've had a few minor issues with my latest environment and viewing history it's been a life saver.
When I installed it (Tortoise SVN was aready installed and I'm using VS 2010) the SCC provider (AnkhSVN) at VS startup displayed error message 'Subversion detected an unsuported working copy version while checking .... You probably upadated other Subversion elements to never version ... Subversion will not work ... Please update Subversion to the nevest version'
Problem I've installed the LASTEST version of AnkhSVN - is there a hidden latest version? As the error message state the SCC provider indeed did not work (at least the tool author is honest about this crapy piece of software). All my project files already checked in into SVN repository we marked as new, I couldn't change SCC bindings.
I wasted couple of hours searching internet for possible solutions to this problem, but without success. I realize that this is my fault, because I should solve problems with free tools (since I didn't pay for then it is my resposibility to make them work).
Save yourself a bit of frustration and don't use it!
I tried update this extension from version 2.3.10427.1016 to new version 2.3.10838, but i've got this error:
Invalid entry to install/download
Parameter name: entry
Where is the problem?
I get the exact same problem; message box pasted below:
---------------------------
Microsoft Visual Studio
---------------------------
Invalid entry to install/download
Parameter name: entry
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
The 2.3.10744.1173 is incompatible with tortoisesvn 1.6.x checkouts.
The fix is to upgrade to tortoisesvn 1.7.x first and after then upgrade the working copy from the tortoisesvn shell context menu.
(Some weeks ago I tried the 2.3.10509.1073 version but must downgraded to 2.1 because the tool was useless in visual studio /all item had the add status icon in the solution/. Because there was no visual studio warning (bug?) in that version, I had no idea what is the problem. The current version at least gives the visual studio warning.)
Recent AnkhSVN versions tell you that the working copy needs to be upgraded when they encounter an old working copy for the first time since starting Visual Studio.
In this case AnkhSVN provides a 'Upgrade Working Copy' command wherever you usually expect an 'Update' command.
I tried to refector a project by splitting it into two projects. This caused an error with Ankh as it could no longer find the original project. I can't seem get it to stop monitoring the original project for it to deal with the new one(still in the same solution).
