Commit through Phing using eclipse on Windows

Question

I am using eclipse to commit my changes to SVN. Now I want to automate few things using Phing, which would do commit with the build process.

Phing code for svn commit is:

<svncommit svnpath="/usr/bin/svn" workingcopy="path/to/my/working/copy" recursive="true" message="my commit message"/>

Above works well on my Linux (ubuntu) machine.

At work, I have to use a Windows box :( and I am not sure what I should be using in svnpath.

Do I need to install any other software? I am not sure if I can use the path of the subversion plugin for eclipse! I don't even know its path.

Can any one please help on this.

SVN (Subversion) Windows builds can be found here: http://subversion.apache.org/packages.html#windows

but it does not add any new folder/files that I have created!

i am not familiar with phing on eclipse, but it seems you are missing -all option (add all)

-a , --all
      Tell the command to automatically stage files that have been modified and deleted, but new
      files you have not told git about are not affected.

Haven't tried to svncommit in phing on windows, but my guess is to download+install tortoiseSVN and use the svn.exe in svnpath.

I've used svnexport in phing on Windows before, and that worked fine.

Thanks for your answer. I'll try to install tortoiseSVN and let you know in few mins if that works for me. Thanks – jtanmay Feb 08 '11 at 18:10
Hi, I was not able to find svn.exe of tortoiseSVN, but I used this C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\TortoiseProc.exe, but seems not doing any thing! would it be possible to tell me the path for svn? – jtanmay Feb 08 '11 at 19:21
Guess I was using a custom package. This thread has a description for `svn.exe`: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2967176/where-is-svn-exe-in-my-machine – Kåre Werner Storgaard Feb 10 '11 at 20:55

Ok Tortoise svn did not work for me! But subversion for windows worked for me partially!!!! http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32svn/

Calling this file from Phing, does commit my changes, but it does not add any new folder/files that I have created! So though I have answered my own quetion, but still the answer is partial!!!

Please let me know if someone has got all of the things working. My goal - Work with Phing in Eclipse on WINDOWS to auto commit my changes including any new files/folders.

----------------------------Update--------------------

Alright got a way around for this. And I got my answer from the following question.

How do I 'svn add' all unversioned files to SVN?

Thanks, Tanmay
