TODO: Add more documentation when I understand all svn root possibilities/ protocols. The svn root is usually in the form of a URL from which the server, protocol and path information can be derived. Although the path to the repository can also be determined from this the information is more implicit than explicit. For example a subversion root URL of: http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/doc/book/tools would have the following components: protocol: http/ web_dav username: anonymous servername: svn.collab.net repository: /repos/svn server path: /trunk/doc/book/tools In addition the revision path or branch can also be determined as subversion stores this information as a seperate physical directory. In this example: revision: trunk

True
commandline string False
destination directory False
failonerror bool Determines if task failure stops the build, or is just reported. The default is true. False
if bool If true then the task will be executed; otherwise, skipped. The default is true. False
passfile file False
password string The pasword to use to login to svn. False
rsh file The executable to use for ssh communication. False
timeout int The maximum amount of time the application is allowed to execute, expressed in milliseconds. Defaults to no time-out. False
unless bool Opposite of if. If false then the task will be executed; otherwise, skipped. The default is false. False
username string The user performing the checkout. False
verbose bool Determines whether the task should report detailed build log messages. The default is false. False

Parameters

AttributeTypeDescriptionRequired
filefile The name of a file as a single command-line argument; will be replaced with the absolute filename of the file. False
ifbool Indicates if the argument should be passed to the external program. If true then the argument will be passed; otherwise, skipped. The default is true. False
linestring List of command-line arguments; will be passed to the executable as is. False
path<path> The value for a PATH-like command-line argument; you can use : or ; as path separators and NAnt will convert it to the platform's local conventions, while resolving references to environment variables. False
unlessbool Indicates if the argument should not be passed to the external program. If false then the argument will be passed; otherwise, skipped. The default is false. False
valuestring A single command-line argument; can contain space characters. False

Nested Elements:

<path>
