Better SVN instructions?

  • I noticed the page https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/about/svn/ is not editable.

    That’s the page where everyone lands on, since it’s the first on google results, and it’s way too geeky to follow. Can we edit it?

    It’s too command-line-ish and it gives me a head-ache just by looking at it.
    I know there are SVN apps out there but I found out most of issues with SVN, even with GUIs, come from the hit of our heads against the wall when working with subversioned files in our desktop.

    I found nowhere stating up-front using Finder (Explore in Win?) would mess the whole thing, nor giving a solution to KEEP managing the files as usual and still not breaking the SVN system. There’s a missing link, a bridge between both systems. Both user profiles.

    We, not command-line experts, already know how to deal with files, and until a good GUI is developed, which deals with all the subversion-related stuff behind the scenes and still allows us to work as we think, I wrote my own tip about that missing link.

    With some help to cure my english, it could be helpful.

  • Once again, you may use whatever way you want, you may publish whatever method you want. I don’t care, I don’t mind.

    But that does not mean your method belongs on the official page.

    No rage, no envy, no pride. I understand there’s a language barrier, but what you said in the first post is clearly not what you explained later. It’s fine for you to clarify, but it’s irksome to see you deny what you wrote earlier.

    I do not agree with your method. If the people in charge think it’s good enough to go on the page, no problem with me. I appreciate your good intentions in trying to write clearer instructions, but they’re wrong for SVN’s workflow. You don’t have to accept it, but that’s the fact.

    By the way, your many personal attacks, name calling and baseless accusations are totally uncalled for and very unprofessional. I’ve responded to your main points and I’m not going to bother giving you feedback on this issue any more.

    Have a nice day.

    Really?

    I mean… really?
