Automated way to keep SVN repository in sync with local files?

by Sean Schertell

This might be a dumb question, but is there ANY elegant solution for keeping my Subversion repository in sync with my local files *including* adding files, deleting files, renaming files? I'm really trying to get religious about keeping all my projects under version control, but I find it such a pain in the arse to have to remember to do svn add, svn delete, svn rename whenever I decide to reorganize my project files. In every project I do, I always get to a point about halfway in where I say -- okay, this is messy -- let's combine these files, delete this one, and rename these more descriptively. Then my SVN repository gets all out of whack and refuses to let me make anymore commits, and that's the end of version control for that project. Happens every time. Ideally: It would be so nice if I could sync my TM project to my SVN repository directly. If I rename something in the drawer, it gets renamed in the repository too. Delete files? Add files? Same thing. Is there some way to do this already? If not, how do you guys handle this issue? And if not, any chance of adding this functionality in a future release? Could a bundle be created to do this? Sean :::: DataFly.Net :::: Complete Web Services http://www.datafly.net

TODO List

by Soryu

Hi, in an attempt to do some ruby I have revamped the TODO list command again, completely. It's now written in Ruby using ERB with a template. • It removes a bug from the older TODO comment which would descend into subdirectories for non-project files. So if you had a file in / and invoked the TODO command it would scan your complete Volume. • It sorts according to TODO/FIXME/CHANGED categories • and numbers the items, so you see how much work there is still todo :) Soryu.

Best way to implement vim-like block comments?

by Corey O'Connor

One thing I liked about vim was the continuation of the "*" down the same column for each line in a block comment. So something entered like: (* Hello! Blah would be formated to: (* Hello! * Blah I implemented this in the O'Caml language by changing the block comment language rule to: { name = 'comment.block.ocaml'; begin = '$(\*.*)$?$'; end = '\*\)'; beginCaptures = { 1 = { name = 'comment.block.ocaml.begin'; }; }; }, And adding two snippets for the return key: One for the scope comment.block.ocaml.begin that would return, space in, and add a "* ". One for comment.block.ocaml that would only return and add a "* ". Xefore I charge off and add this for C, is this the best way to implement this feature? Or am I missing an easier way? I've attached the two snippets and language syntax for O'Caml if anybody would like to try ti. -- -Corey O'Connor

quick perl question

by Oliver Taylor

Forgive the ignorance... perl -pe ' s/"/\"/g; ' This there any reason that the above wouldn't work? I'm guessing it has to with the "-pe" options (which I know nothing about).

bundle command

by Oliver Taylor

I'm working on a bundle command (see below) that converts a plain- text document (screenplay) to a PHP file for conversion to PDF via FPDF (http://www.fpdf.org). Everything is working just fine except for two things I just can't figure out--for the record, this code was given to me by Allen for an HTML conversion and I've repurposed it for this. The first problem I'm having is with the very last line of code. The idea is to get safari to open the generated document in Safari and process it as a web-page. Because $DST seems to output the file-path I can't just have it open "http://localhost/example.php", which is what I want. How do I do that? Is it in the manual, 'cause I missed that part. The second question is regarding the 19th line of code: $this->Cell(5.5,.18," XXXX ",0,0,'L',0); I want to know if there is a way to define the "XXXX" bit in the document itself with something like: $header = example How would that be done? Thanks in advance, you guys are really helping make this bundle kick butt. ------------------------------- # first figure out a name for the result NAME="${TM_FILENAME:-untitled}" BASENAME="${NAME%.*}" DST="/Library/WebServer/Documents/$BASENAME" # everything we output within { … } is written to the PHP file via redirection (see line with the }) { # first output PHP header cat <<HEAD <?php require("fpdf/fpdf.php"); class PDF extends FPDF { //Page header function Header() { //Move to the right \$this->Cell(5.5,.18," XXXX ",0,0,'L',0); //Title \$this->Cell(.5,.18,\$this->PageNo(),0,2,'R',0); \$this->ln(.32); } } \$pdf=new PDF("P","in","Letter"); \$pdf->SetMargins(1.5,.5,1); \$pdf->AddPage(); \$pdf->SetFont("Courier","",12); HEAD # then PHP body (converted from document) perl -pe ' s/"/\\"/g; #escape quotes s/\/\/(.*)\/\/|^\/\/(.*)//g; # strip out non-printing comments s/^(\t{4})([^\t].*)$/\$pdf->Cell(2);\$pdf->MultiCell(0,.18,"$2",0,L, 0);/g; #characters s/^(\t{3})([^\t].*)$/\$pdf->Cell(1.5);\$pdf->MultiCell(1.5,.18,"$2", 0,L,0);/g; #parenthetical s/^(\t{2})([^\t].*)$/\$pdf->Cell(1);\$pdf->MultiCell(3.5,.18,"$2", 0,L,0);\$pdf->ln();/g; #dialogue s/(\t{10})([^\t].*:)/\$pdf->Cell(4);\$pdf->MultiCell(2,.18,"$2");\ $pdf->ln();/g; #right-transitions s/^\w+.{2,20}:\s*$/\$pdf->MultiCell(0,.18,"$&",0,L,0);\$pdf->ln();/ g; #left-transitions s/^(\w|\.|\[|\-).*$/\$pdf->MultiCell(0,.18,"$&",0,L,0);\$pdf->ln();/ g; #paragraph ' # and finally PHP footer cat <<'TAIL' $pdf->Output(); ?> TAIL } >"$DST.php" # open the generated PHP file in Safari open -a Safari "$DST.php"

Dear List, One of the most striking things to a new user is that the most important part of the UI for textmate is a button a that is at the _base_ of the window (v. unexpected) and that is the smallest part of the UI. I'm quite sure I would not have realised its significance had I not seen the Screencasts, and I know that people I've recently introduced to Textmate have had the same problem. Is there any way it could be made more obvious? Best, N.

by Corey O'Connor

What is the meaning of the "swallow" key for language rules? I searched the archives, wiki and documentation but I couldn't find a good definition. Did I miss something? -- -Corey O'Connor

The "TextMate Must Have integrated ftp/sftp/ssh" discussion

by Eric O'Brien

[There is a question in here... scrub through to the end!] This is very interesting! Clearly, folks have a range of different tasks they need to accomplish and a range of different approaches for doing so. In my case, what I'm currently doing is ridiculously simple compared to what some on the list are doing: I'm just editing a small number of files that make up "a website." I'm editing the files locally... the files are on a hard drive in a box that's right under my desk. But to complicate things, I want to be able to see how these files appear when served from a REAL web server (not just opened from my disk). Plus, I also want to know how they look from a Windows machine. So... I've set up my next oldest computer (a G3) as a "server in my closet." This is my "test" deployment location. Of course, I also want to deploy the files on a (external) "staging" server where my client(s) can check things out. So, at minimum, I have stuff in three places that I (usually) want to be the same. When I started using TextMate, I was concerned about that lack of "ftp/sftp/ssh integration." After I discovered and researched rsync (yes, consider me a newbie as regards The Power of the Command Line) and TextMate bundles, I'm suddenly no longer concerned about whether I can open a file "via ftp" FROM WITHIN TextMate. Or save it back from TextMate "to" the Internet. On Feb 19, 2006, at 10:05 PM, Court K wrote, in part: > <snip> > I mean who actually is editing files that ARE NOT going to end up > on the internet? ... > <snip> As other's have mentioned, this is not *quite* the universal situation... for example, folks editing LaTeX are (I presume) mostly expecting to see the result in print; folks using TextMate to write screen plays are also (again, I presume) thinking in terms other than "web deployment." The files I am editing ARE intended to go directly for the Internet. But still I feel no need for "built-in" ftp/sftp/ssh support in TextMate. In part this is because I'm always working with the same set of files and their location on the net is always the same. And no one else is editing them other than me. So my Question: What are folks doing that makes them want to see built-in ftp/sftp/ ssh support in TextMate? One situation I can imagine is the desire/ need to open many arbitrary files that are located in many arbitrary locations on the Internet. I don't have a good picture of when anyone would be needing to do that though. Are people doing that? For me, the files I want to edit are on my computer. Periodically they need to be uploaded to the net, but my editing sessions don't begin from copies that were on the net. Just Curious! ;) eo
