Looking for windows SVN log viewer

Hi all,

I greatly prefer using http://cia.vc/stats/project/Blender to the mailing list archive for looking at the latest commits to Blender. However, I often want to check back more than 20 commits seeing as yesterday alone had 31 for example.

Do people have any favourite ways of viewing the commits in a nice useable/readable fashion, specifically that work on windows or in a browser?

I have used http://tortoisesvn.net/ a little in the past and might go with that, but I’m really just interested in the log for now instead of setting up a full yucky windows based build system.

Cheers.

in the command line you can type

svn log -l 50 <svn address>

or

svn log -l 50 <svn address> >log.txt

to see the latest 50 log entries.

You can use SlikSVN under windows for that.

Thanks Loolarge but I’m not interested in command line tools as I may as well sort through the text on the mailing list.

Pretty sure I’m doing something wrong here. Got RapidSVN which from memory we used on Durian. It has a log viewer I found ok on the project. However I’ve downloaded 1.8gb so far (aussie downloads are metered) of the Blender SVN, which was something I didn’t really need to do. Is there a way to just get the logs without the actual files?

I do not think there is a tool that only checks the logs/history. This is part of a package. Tortoise should be fine. I use subclipse, some other tools might have a build in SVN-GUI (e.g sqldeveloper).

BTW. I do not think you need a working copy to browse the history.

I got what I wanted out of TortiseSVN without needing to download the repository. 100 commit views at a time with a nice handy ‘next 100’ button.
