Hi,
Can anyone help me figure out if there is a plugin or any other good way to use CVS or SVN with C::B?

You can try the SVNInside plugin here : http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,7063.0.html

Hi aseth,

if you are using SVN under windows you can use also the Shell extension plugin (http://developer.berlios.de/projects/cbilplugin/). This plugin is a file explorer in codeblocks and supports shell extension and SVN decorators as overlay icon. TortoiseSVN offers the possibilty to use the context menu in the windows explorer or to perform the commands in a cmd. For example:

--- Code: ---TortoiseProc.exe /command:diff /path:$file

--- End code ---

will diff the working copy with SVN base. So you have access to all TortoiseSVN commands in the command line. You can use this feature to do the following thing. Add an entry e.g. diff in the Shell extension plugin and specify the above command. If you now select a file in the file explorer of  CB it will be the same as you are using the windows explorer. That is really cool :D. A few day ago I saw that something similar exists also for linux called toytoiseSVN, now renamed to SubdriverSVN (http://subdiversvn.sourceforge.net/). I could not try until now, but if it has also a command interface it can be use like the above example too.

Bye,

Mario

Thanks everyone. I am using Ubutnu and have no prior experience compiling plugins, etc. So, is there a way I can get a binary file for SVNinside or SubdiverSVN which I understand would give me the capability I am looking for?

Also, I don't really need CVs / SVN control from inside C::B necessarily. I am just looking for a convenient way to backup code that I am writing in C::B to a CVS / SVN repository. So, could I use a GUI front-end for CVS / SVN in conjunction with C::B?

I am again sorry that I do not have much experience with setting up CVS or SVN repositories, though I have both installed on my system. Could anyone also suggest what a good CVS / SVN GUI front-end on Ubuntu might be and where I can get it from?

Thank you.
