SVN Client tag/branch dialog improvements

Post by jelovirt »

Syncro SVN Client 4.2, OS X

Working Copy has the operation Modify > Branch/Tag... available, but Repository does not. In Repository you can, however, use Copy... to achieve the same result. I think Repository should also have the Branch/Tag... available.

The Branch/Tag dialog could also be simplified a bit. Right now it's a copy dialog that doesn't really have any special treatment for tags or branches. The dialog could be split to two different dialogs, Tag and Branch and both dialogs would have a single input field, name of the tag or branch, respectively, source revision like in the current dialog, and comment message. An example could be Subversive.

If Branch/Tag was simplified, the plain Copy dialog may need to be extended to also include the source revision selection. That way the tagging/branching dialog would the simple and restricted copy, and the normal copy would be the advanced copy tool.

Hello,

Thank you for your feature request.
We already have an issue on our internal issue tracker regarding the possibility to have a Branch/Tag operation on a repository too. We've added a comment with your suggestions to this issue. When this will be implemented we will contact you.

Best Regards,
