Toolbar

The toolbar from the working copy view contains the following buttons:

  • Synchronize - contacts the repository and determines the changes made by you to the working copy and by others to the repository. The synchronize result will be displayed in the Synchronize view. The actions performs a synchronize operation on the root of the working copy.

  • Refresh - refreshes the content of the working copy. The content of the working copy is always scanned(refreshed) when starting the Subversion client or when changing the working copy from the combo box in the toolbar. However, if you make modifications from other applications outside the Subversion client, while the client is started, you will have to manually refresh the working copy. The action performs a refresh operation on the root of the working copy.

  • Cleanup - performs a maintenance cleanup operation on the working copy. Sometimes, when an operation fails, the working copy will enter an inconsistent state in which some resources will remain locked by SVN. Cleanup removes those maintenance locks and allows you to continue your work. When the SVN client determines that an operation failed because the working copy is locked by SVN you will be asked if a Cleanup operation should be performed first.

  • Combo box - The combo box list contains all the working copies the Subversion client is aware of. When you select another working copy from the combo, the newly selected working copy content will be scanned and displayed in the view.

  • Add/Remove Working Copy - opens the Working copies list dialog which displays the working copies the Subversion client is aware of. In this dialog you can add existing or remove no longer needed working copies. If you try to add a directory which is not a valid Subversion working copy, a warning dialog will inform you that the selected directory is not under version control. Please note that removing a working copy from this dialog will NOT remove it from your file system; you will have to do that manually.

  • Show ignored files - shows in the working copy tree the resources that were listed in the svn:ignore property of their parents. This option is off by default.

  • Show deleted files - shows in the working copy tree the resources that were marked to be deleted but are not yet committed. This option is off by default.
