[OFBiz] Users - $Rev$ keyword causing problem with some svn versions

[T E Schmitz]

Hello,

Recently, I downloaded revision 5274 of OFBiz. 268 files had the
svn:keyword LastChangedRevision in the form $Rev:$ - with the colon, no
space and no revision number (rather than the unexpanded $Rev$ or the
expanded keyword $Rev: 4555 $).
Example: framework\entity\src\org\ofbiz\entity\util\ByteWrapper.java

This causes some bizarre problems with some versions of Subversion.

I svn exported the OFBiz sources and imported them into our repository
as a vendor drop. All the files which had $Rev:$ had the modified status
/right after/ checkout from our repository.

I described the problem in more detail on the Subversion mailing list:
http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=users&msgNo=36441

I did a search for a $Rev:$ and replaced with $Rev$, though on commit  
it didn't expand the keyword... I'm guessing that some SVN flag/
property needs to be changed for these files, does anyone know how to  
do a bulk change on something like that?

This must be the quickest fix ever!

either in the Subversion config file (on Unix ~/.subversion/config):
* = svn:keywords=LastChangedDate Revision Author
or just
* = svn:keywords=Revision


or

svn propset svn:keywords Revision

Presuming you are on a Linux box, grep for $Rev:$, produce a file list
from that and from that a script that executes svn propset on every
file. Maybe not very elegant, but that's how I did it.

Apparently svn propset can also be executed directly on the repository.

Thanks Tarlika, I've set the svn:keywords property for pretty much  
everything now. On committing those it looked like the keywords were  
expanding, so I think we're good.

For all committers: I have updated the SVN config file (in ofbiz/
website/svn/config) which should be put (or updated) in  
the .subervsion directory under your home directory.

Just be aware of one pitfall - i just made that stupid mistake myself:

DO NOT enable keyword expansion on all files as I did above (* =
svn:keywords=Revision), just on text files!!!!

svn:keyword allows Subversion to change the file if it finds keyword
placeholders in it.

When I checked out OFBiz from my repository the build failed because the
worldpay jar had got "corrupted" upon import and was no longer a valid
archive. As I know now that was my own stupid fault trying to save
myself spelling out dozens of extensions.
