#SUBVERSION ECLIPSE PLUG IN INSTALL#
Not only do you have to install the connector, you might need to tell Eclipse that you want to use the connector. Now it would be a good idea to say yes when it asks you to restart the workbench. SVNKit 1.2.0 Implementation (or the highest available version).
Accept and it should load the available installable features at that location.

What really matters here is that the update site url is Ĭopy and paste that link and in Eclipse go to Help - Software Updates - Available SoftwareĬlick on Add site., and paste the url you just copied.
#SUBVERSION ECLIPSE PLUG IN DOWNLOAD#
Somewhere in Eclipse literature you can find a link to this page, which provides links to update sites which will enable you to download one of these mysterious connectors. Where do you get connectors from? Good question. Wooohoo! You have the Team Provider installed, but it is absolutely useless without a connector. Note: if you can't get any result when entering "svn" in the field, you might need to add to the list of software sites so that you can install the plug in. It might ask you to restart the workbench you can do that if you feel better that way.
When it shows the matches, check the feature called "Subversive SVN Team Provider" Go to Help - Software Updates - Available SoftwareĮnter "svn" in the field which says "type filter text". So that's why the installation process is somehow divided in two parts. It seems that because of bizarre licensing problems they can't distribute the whole feature in just one file, but they had to split the SVN support in two parts: the plug-in itself, which talks to Eclipse and that is distributed from the Ganymede update site, and the SVN Connector, which deals with the SVN server and all that, and is NOT distributed from the eclipse servers, but from Polarion. If not, just post a comment and I'll try to help :-) A bit of background (aka Why can't I just select a new feature to be installed and have it Just-Working?)

#SUBVERSION ECLIPSE PLUG IN HOW TO#
But this time I decided to write it down so that not only I can remember how to do that, but also people who are using Eclipse with FDT, Flex, etc. I have installed it several times in several computers and using different operating systems, and I always forget how to do that. So no wonder everybody just opt for using external tools. Unfortunately, the installation procedure is horrible and confusing. Specially for comparing between versions, checking the changes on one file, etc, it's really handy. You can do all your SVN duties from outside Eclipse, using something like kdesvn, TortoiseSVN, etc, but it is really powerful to be able to do everything from Eclipse. Surprisingly, Eclipse comes by default with CVS support only, which is not very use(ful|d) at this point. However, the rest of advice regarding the use of SVN in Eclipse is still valid. Mr doob informed me this installation method has been superseded in later versions of the IDE, and the connector and all other SVN components are now very easy to install, which kind of invalidates this article.
