svn问题处理

1.问题：svn客户端更新代码报错“svn： This client is too old to work with……”
原因：svn之间的版本差异造成。当我们已经用1.4版本的svn checkout一份work copy后，但某天我们尝试用高版本1.5svn更新，等再切换成1.4svn更新代码时就会出现此错误。具体请见”http://subversion.apache.org/faq.html#working-copy-format-change”
解决方法：除了客户端升级之外，我们还可以通过对work copy进行降级处理。如下：

[root@test ~]# svn up /test/web
svn: This client is too old to work with working copy ‘/test/web’. You need
to get a newer Subversion client, or to downgrade this working copy.
See http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html#working-copy-format-change
for details.

(1)下载脚本change-svn-wc-format.py

[root@test ~]# wget http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/tools/client-side/change-svn-wc-format.py
[root@test ~]# python change-svn-wc-format.py --help
usage: change-svn-wc-format.py WC_PATH SVN_VERSION [--verbose] [--force] [--skip-unknown-format]
       change-svn-wc-format.py --help

Change the format of a Subversion working copy to that of SVN_VERSION.

  --skip-unknown-format    : skip directories with unknown working copy
                             format and continue the update

其中：
WC_PATH 表示你的work copy
SVN_VERSION 表示你当前使用的svn客户端版本号，如版本为1.4.2，就写成1.4
(2)执行命令

[root@test ~]# python change-svn-wc-format.py /web/app.cityrebank.com 1.4 --skip-unknown-format
Converted WC at '/test/web' into format 8 for Subversion 1.4

(3)svn up 再次更新，成功

脚本代码如下：

[root@test ~]# vim change-svn-wc-format.py
#!/usr/bin/env python
#
# change-svn-wc-format.py: Change the format of a Subversion working copy.
