Shelving and Unshelving

Subversion 1.11 has a new experimental feature called checkpointing which is enabled in TortoiseSVN 1.11. This feature allows you to shelve local changes, work on something else and commit and then unshelve those stored changes again. While in TortoiseSVN 1.10, shelving didn’t work with binary files, in 1.11 it can deal now with binary files as well.

existing shelves

If you’ve created shelves in TortoiseSVN 1.10 and haven’t applied them yet, please apply them before updating to TortoiseSVN 1.11. The old shelves can’t be used in 1.11 anymore.

experimental

The shelving feature is still marked as experimental.

That means that while shelving works as advertised, it is still in a stage where it’s heavily improved and worked on. That also means that there’s no guarantee that the shelves you create are upwards compatible and future versions might not be able to use them. And of course the UI might change as well in future versions to accommodate new features and behaviors.

New icons

Most icons have been redesigned and improved. And they now all work better on high dpi monitors without looking blurry.
