Page History

These notes are my target to get into an "accessing svn from MyEclipse" page for official support. Much of this is cribbed from the SAIS technical-services wiki at

https://wikis.mit.edu/confluence/display/CommonServices/MIT+Subversion+Repository+Environment+Setup#MITSubversionRepositoryEnvironmentSetup-Eclipse^{Image Removed}

1. Install MyEclipse (we need a distribution method for this, and for the MIT license numbers).
2. The Subversive SVN client for Eclipse does not come with MyEclipse. This will be one non-MyEclipse-Standard plugin that we will need to support.
   1. In MyEclipse > Help > Software Updates > Find and Install, add two new "remote sites" for subversive plugin and subversive SVN connectors
   2. Polarion's most recent instructions for this are here: http://www.polarion.org/index.php?page=download&project=subversive^{Image Removed}
   3. Subversive has a dependency on the "Mylyn" package, which does not come by default in MyEclipse. During the "find and install" process, you also need to open up the "Europa Discovery Project" remote site and check off "Mylyn."
3. Windows: Install SecureCRT distribution from http://web.mit.edu/software^{Image Removed}

4. Wiki Markup
   Windows: Right now, for Windows, we have to install the Tortoise Windows client so that a Documents and Setting\[user\]\Application Data\Subversion folder is created (according to the SAIS docs, requires verification)

5. Wiki Markup
   Windows: Edit the Documents and Setting\[user\]\Application Data\Subversion\config file

   1. Find the "svn ssh =" line and change it to:
   2. ssh = C:
      Program Files\\
      SecureCRT
      vsh.exe -x -l <Kerberos ID> -auth gssapi
6. MyEclipse > Preferences > Team > SVN, select the "connector" tab and change the connector to "Native JavaHL 1.4.5"
7. In MyEclipse, open Window > Perspective > SVN Repository Browsing
   1. In the "SVN Repositories" pane, context-click and select "new > repository location

   2. Wiki Markup
      URL should be "sshsvn + svnssh://svn.mit.edu/\[reposname\]/ or ssh + svn://svn.mit.edu/\[reposname\]/\[projectname\] if you are loading one repos with separate projects

   3. "user" is your kerbid, do not fill in a password
