Download Tortoisesvn 1.5.4

The developers behind Tortoisesvn released version 1.5.4 of their program on Saturday. Tortoisesvn is an open source Subversion client and is intended for version control. Version control is especially useful, if not indispensable, when working on a project with multiple developers. The program integrates itself as a shell extension into Windows and can be used on its own or in combination with an ide. Version 1.5.3 of Tortoisesvn ships with Subversion 1.5.3 and contains no new features. However, the necessary bug fixes have been made and this version has been given the stamp ‘maintenance release’. Below is the changelog for this release:

Changes:

• OpenSSL 0.9.8i with capieng enabled

Bug fixed:

• Applying a patch where a context line had UTF-BOMs in it failed. (Stefan)
• Checking out multiple folders from the repository browser failed to unscape the target folder. (Stefan)
• If an url had special chars which needed escaping below the repository root, showing the log did not always work. (Stefan)
• Comparing two revisions sometimes did not work if the url didn’t exist anymore in HEAD. (Stefan)
• Diffing/Blaming from TortoiseBlame on merged revisions did not work in certain situations. (Stefan)
• Unescape the target paths when exporting the changed files from the file diff dialog. (Stefan)
• the ‘unversioned’ overlay for folders didn’t show up for some unversioned folders. (Stefan)
• After a “mine before theirs” or “theirs before mine” resolving action on the right pane in TortoiseMerge, the Undo would not undo correctly. (Stefan)
• Failures, even GPF in blame and log dialogs when specifying a revision range and a peg revision outside that range. (Stefan Fuhrmann)
• TortoiseMerge sometimes wrongly detected the encoding of files. (Stefan)
• If a merge conflicted due to added items the progress dialog did not count these correctly and the context menu missed items. (Tobias Sch?fer)
• TortoiseMerge could crash if the font size was set smaller than 8 pixels. (Stefan)
• When a cleanup failed, the error message didn’t include the svn error string. (Stefan)
• /closeonend was ignored for the (un)lock command. (Stefan)
• The ‘rename’ context menu was not available for added files. (Stefan)
• Entering an URL before non-ascii text in the commit dialog corrupted the first chars of the non-ascii text. (Stefan)
• Blame from the repository browser ignored the diff options. (Stefan)
