SVN Bomb Sign - Ubuntu Solution

                      

Something was wrong while working with SVN suddenly directories went on to the bomb sign as the status. That holds me back for some time and after going through whats wrong with the repo I fugred out that my system is having some problem.

The issue was the checker of my svn was stopped unexpectedly due to some issue with the commit failed. The status checker is stopped unexpectedly so we need to see the log to confirm it from :

~/.config/rabbitvcs/RabbitVCS.log

  To solve this issue we need to restart the status checker file by following the following the steps :

1. Kill the "checkerservice.py" Process under rabbitvcs
2. Run "ps aux | grep rabbitvcs"
3. Use command "kill -9 <process_id_of_checkerservice.py>"
4. Restart the Nautilus and the solution worked.

Enjoy the learning :)

SVN - Remove Username and password Windows 7

How to remove the stored username and password from SVN in windows 7? 

Once I was asked to give my desktop to someone else and I just stucked at this question that how that guy will commit the code to server as it is having my username and stored password.

Then after some struggle I was able to get the answer with the help of http://stackoverflow.com/ and the solution was pretty clear and detailed that normally SVN keep these kind of data in one specific folder is as:

C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Subversion\

So whenever you face this kind of solution please have a look into this folder and remove the files as they are storing the information that you wanted to delete.

Make sure that when next time you are going to commit or update the code the SVN will ask for the username and the password for the same.

Enjoy learning :)
