Set the value of a property on files, dirs, or revisions.
usage: 1. propset PROPNAME PROPVAL PATH...
2. propset PROPNAME --revprop -r REV PROPVAL [TARGET]
1. Changes a versioned file or directory property in a working copy.
2. Changes an unversioned property on a repository revision.
(TARGET only determines which repository to access.)
The value may be provided with the --file option instead of PROPVAL.
Property names starting with 'svn:' are reserved. Subversion recognizes
the following special versioned properties on a file:
svn:keywords - Keywords to be expanded. Valid keywords are:
URL, HeadURL - The URL for the head version of the file.
Author, LastChangedBy - The last person to modify the file.
Date, LastChangedDate - The date/time the file was last modified.
Rev, Revision, - The last revision the file changed.
LastChangedRevision
Id - A compressed summary of the previous four.
Header - Similar to Id but includes the full URL.
Custom keywords can be defined with a format string separated from
the keyword name with '='. Valid format substitutions are:
%a - The author of the revision given by %r.
%b - The basename of the URL of the file.
%d - Short format of the date of the revision given by %r.
%D - Long format of the date of the revision given by %r.
%P - The file's path, relative to the repository root.
%r - The number of the revision which last changed the file.
%R - The URL to the root of the repository.
%u - The URL of the file.
%_ - A space (keyword definitions cannot contain a literal space).
%% - A literal '%'.
%H - Equivalent to %P%_%r%_%d%_%a.
%I - Equivalent to %b%_%r%_%d%_%a.
Example custom keyword definition: MyKeyword=%r%_%a%_%P
Once a custom keyword has been defined for a file, it can be used
within the file like any other keyword: $MyKeyword$
svn:executable - If present, make the file executable. Use
'svn propdel svn:executable PATH...' to clear.
svn:eol-style - One of 'native', 'LF', 'CR', 'CRLF'.
svn:mime-type - The mimetype of the file. Used to determine
whether to merge the file, and how to serve it from Apache.
A mimetype beginning with 'text/' (or an absent mimetype) is
treated as text. Anything else is treated as binary.
svn:needs-lock - If present, indicates that the file should be locked
before it is modified. Makes the working copy file read-only
when it is not locked. Use 'svn propdel svn:needs-lock PATH...'
to clear.
Subversion recognizes the following special versioned properties on a
directory:
svn:ignore - A list of file glob patterns to ignore, one per line.
svn:global-ignores - Like svn:ignore, but inheritable.
svn:externals - A list of module specifiers, one per line, in the
following format similar to the syntax of 'svn checkout':
[-r REV] URL[@PEG] LOCALPATH
Example:
http://example.com/repos/zig foo/bar
The LOCALPATH is relative to the directory having this property.
To pin the external to a known revision, specify the optional REV:
-r25 http://example.com/repos/zig foo/bar
To unambiguously identify an element at a path which may have been
subsequently deleted or renamed, specify the optional PEG revision:
-r25 http://example.com/repos/zig@42 foo/bar
The URL may be a full URL or a relative URL starting with one of:
../ to the parent directory of the extracted external
^/ to the repository root
/ to the server root
// to the URL scheme
Use of the following format is discouraged but is supported for
interoperability with Subversion 1.4 and earlier clients:
LOCALPATH [-r PEG] URL
The ambiguous format 'relative_path relative_path' is taken as
'relative_url relative_path' with peg revision support.
Lines starting with a '#' character are ignored.
