[oXygen-user] trouble with oxygen svn client

[Christian Wittern]

Hi there,

Recently, I ran into some issues with the SVN client, so I thought I talk
about them here to see if there is a way to resolve the problem.

I am using the svn+ssh protocol to tunnel the svn connection through ssh
For security reasons, my ssh server has an unusual port.

Now oxygen seems not to look at the configuration for SSH in ~/.ssh/config
which means I have to specify the port on the URL like:
svn+ssh:/<server>:<port>/path/to/rep
This allows me to access the repository from within Oxygen.  The problem
with this is, however, that it makes other SVN tools fail.  So if I want to
use SCPlugin (this is the Mac equivalent to TortoiseSVN), it fails with a
'Connection error'.

While I do not know which of the two behaviors is correct, I think it could
be solved if Oxygen would allows to specify the port separately from the
repository URL.  But there might be other solutions as well?

Any hint appreciated,

Christian
