Packaging a Subversion Project

This is the method that I use to package a SVN Project. For CVS projects, the code is slightly different. Please note that the second line requires bash to work.

This is how I packaged nexty


svn checkout https://nexty.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/nexty
find nexty/ -name .svn -exec rm -rf {} \;
tar -czf nexty.tar.gz nexty/
rm -rf nexty/

  1. Hello,

    Don’t know if you’re still using these lines, but I suggest to use the ‘export’ instead ‘checkout’. With export you didn’t need bash as you didn’t need to delete ‘.svn’ folders.

    Cheers,
