See TWiki:Codev.SubversionBasedTWikiInstalls.

Encouraging people to run the SVN version means better testing and easier updates.

However, some updates are not appropriate for a live site. e.g. updates to Main, TWikiPreferences, etc.

The script pseudo-svnup.pl runs svn up on all files except those listed in SVN_UP_PRESERVE

It works by

  1. getting a list of all updates from 'svn up -u' (That command shows what would change, but does not change the filespace)
  2. removing from the list anything listed in the file SVN_UP_PRESERVE
  3. performing svn up on the other files.

Committed revision 7657.

My SVN_UP_PRESERVE file looks like:

templates/view.pattern.tmpl
lib/TWiki/Render.pm
data/.htpasswd
data/Main
data/TWiki/WebLeftBar.txt
data/TWiki/WebTopicCreator.txt
data/TWiki/WebTopicViewTemplate.txt
data/Sandbox/WebPreferences.txt
data/TestCases/WebPreferences.txt

i.e. I changed these files and I don't care if others altered them, I want to keep my versions.

I ignore the whole of data/Main. I don't care if anyone ever adds data/.htpasswd
