It is a rewrite of the Svn plugin using the native +`pysvn <http://pysvn.tigris.org/>`_ api. + +Currently, It enables you to get revision information out of your +repository for reporting purposes. Once the plugin is enabled, every time +a client checks in, it will include the current repository revision in +the reports/statistics. If any changes are made from the bcfg2-server +the plugin will commit them back into the repositroy. For example, +``/usr/sbin/bcfg2-admin pull client Path /some/file`` will update the +servers repository and commit the changes into svn. + +How to enable the Svn2 plugin +============================= + +Simply add Svn2 to your plugins line in ``/etc/bcfg2.conf``:: + + [server] + plugins = Base,Bundler,Cfg,..,Svn2 + +Auto Commit feautre +=================== + +Svn2 adds the ability to commit changes back into the repository. In +order for this feature to work the repository should already be under version +control and the user the bcfg2-server runs as must be able to commit without +any interaction. For example a file base repository url +(``file:///path/to/repo``). + |
