Any feature or bugfix in 1.0.x through 1.9.x is also in 1.10, but 1.10 contains features and bugfixes not present in any earlier release. The new features will eventually be documented in a 1.10 version of the free Subversion book (<a href="http://svnbook.red-bean.com/" >svnbook.red-bean.com</a>).</p> <p>This page describes only major changes.

However, some of the new 1.10 features may not be available unless both client and server are the latest version. There are also cases where a new feature will work but will run less efficiently if the client is new and the server old.</p> <p>There is <strong>no need</strong> to <a href="http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.8/svn.reposadmin.maint.html#svn.reposadmin.maint.migrate.svnadmin" >dump and reload</a> your repositories. Subversion 1.10 servers can read and write to repositories created by earlier versions. To upgrade an existing server installation, just install the newest libraries and binaries on top of the older ones.</p> <p>Subversion 1.10 maintains API/ABI compatibility with earlier releases, by only adding new functions, never removing old ones. A program written to any previous 1.x API can both compile and run using 1.10 libraries. However, a program written for 1.10 cannot necessarily compile or run against older libraries.</p> <p>There may be limited cases where the behavior of old APIs has been slightly modified from previous releases.

See <a href="http://svn.apache.org/r1882326">r1882326</a>.</p> <p>Background: Subversion 1.10 introduced a new implementation of path-based authorization (authz) to deliver wildcard support and improved performance over that of Subversion 1.9 and earlier. From Subversion 1.10 through 1.14.0, the new implementation did not correctly combine global rules with repository rules: if a global rule and a per-repository rule were both present for a path, the global rule would be ignored and the per-repository rule would apply by itself. As a result, from Subversion 1.10 through 1.14.0, it was not possible to override per-path access rules for specific users (or groups) at the global level. Administrators whose authz rules rely on this incorrect behavior may need to adjust their rules accordingly. </p> <p>This issue is fixed in 1.14.1, making it possible once again to override per-path access rules for specific users (and groups) at the global level. Such global rules are overridden by repository-specific rules only if both the user and the path match the repository-specific rule.</p> <p>As an example, consider the following rule set:</p> <pre> [groups] company = developer1, developer2, developer3 customer = customer1, customer2 # company can read-write on everything [/] @company = rw [project1:/] @customer = r </pre> <p> Does <tt>developer1</tt> have <tt>rw</tt> access to <tt>"/trunk"</tt> in <tt>project1</tt>? </p> <p> Subversion servers running 1.10.0 up to 1.10.6 or 1.14.0, without the fix for <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SVN-4762?issueNumber=4762" >issue #4762</a>, will only apply the repository-specific part of the rule set:</p> <pre> [project1:/] @customer = r </pre> <p> The answer in this case is that <tt>developer1</tt> has no access at all because the global rule which grants <tt>rw</tt> access to the <tt>@company</tt> group is ignored. </p> <p> Subversion servers running 1.14.1 or later match the behaviour of Subversion 1.9, meaning they will apply both the global and the repository-specific part of the rule set:</p> <pre> # company can read-write on everything [/] @company = rw [project1:/] @customer = r </pre> <p> The answer in this case is that <tt>developer1</tt> has <tt>rw</tt> access to any path in <tt>project1</tt>. Global rules are overridden by repository-specific rules only if both the user (<tt>developer1</tt>) and the path (<tt>"/"</tt>, including child paths for which no specific rules exist) match the repository-specific rule. While the repository-specific rule matches <tt>"/trunk"</tt> it does not match <tt>developer1</tt>, and hence the global rule will be used. </p> </div> <!-- authz-compatibility --> <div class="h4" id="svnadmin-LOCK_PATH-canonical"> <h4><tt>svnadmin</tt> subcommands print locked paths differently <a class="sectionlink" href="#svnadmin-LOCK_PATH-canonical" title="Link to this section">¶</a> </h4> <!-- This documents https://svn.apache.org/r1797122 --> <p>The <tt>svnadmin lock</tt>, <tt>svnadmin unlock</tt>, and <tt>svnadmin rmlocks</tt> subcommands print the locked path differently.</p> <p>In 1.9 and earlier, the path would be printed out in exactly the form it was input. In 1.10, the path is printed in "canonical" form: with dot components (<tt>foo/./bar</tt>) elided and multiple slashes (<tt>foo//bar</tt>) compressed to one. The path also starts with a slash in the output, regardless of whether a leading slash was present in the input.</p> <p>Example:</p> <pre> $ svnadmin-1.9 lock r //iota jrandom logmsg opaquelocktoken:42 '//iota' locked by user 'jrandom'. $ svnadmin-1.9 unlock r //iota jrandom opaquelocktoken:42 '//iota' unlocked by user 'jrandom'. $ svnadmin-1.10 lock r //iota jrandom logmsg opaquelocktoken:42 '/iota' locked by user 'jrandom'. $ svnadmin-1.10 unlock r //iota jrandom opaquelocktoken:42 '/iota' unlocked by user 'jrandom'. $ </pre> <p>Only the output is changed.

Interactive conflict resolution has been completely redesigned and rewritten. This new conflict resolver supersedes the first implementation introduced in Subversion 1.5.</p> <p>The new conflict resolver searches repository history for structural changes (additions, deletions, copies, and moves) which conflict with local changes in the working copy and cause tree conflicts. Tree conflicts are now described in detail, including revision numbers and names of authors of conflicting changes. In previous versions of Subversion, the task of finding such information was left to the user. Automating this task is a huge usability improvement.</p> <p>The new conflict resolver is able to detect moves and renames in repository history, and take them into account while modifying the local working copy. This makes seamless merging between branches possible even if one or both branches rename files or directories. For best results, all SVN clients committing to the repository should be at version 1.8 or higher.</p> <p>The new conflict resolver will avoid asking users about resolution options whenever there is a only one reasonable course of action. For example, if a file was moved to another location in the repository, the conflict resolver will attempt to resolve the tree conflict on behalf of the user by performing the same move locally if necessary. This allows users to focus their attention on conflicts which cannot be resolved automatically.</p> <p>Because detection of moves and renames involves heuristics, detection is not perfect and won't work in all conceivable cases. For a detailed description of how incoming moves and renames are detected, see <a href="https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/notes/resolve-moves"> How Subversion's conflict resolver handles incoming moves</a>. </p> <p>The conflict resolver user interface remains largely unchanged. Like in previous releases, the resolver will be started automatically if an update, merge, or switch operation ends with unresolved conflicts. It can also be started on demand by running the <tt>svn resolve</tt> command. For more information, run <tt>svn help resolve</tt> after installing Subversion 1.10.</p> <p>In some situations, resolving one tree conflict will cause new other tree conflicts to appear. The <tt>svn resolve</tt> command will keep iterating over such conflicts until none are left, or until the user decides to quit the operation.</p> <p>The new conflict resolver can be driven interactively with <tt>svn resolve</tt>, from Subversion's client API (in C and other language bindings), or with the non-interactive <a href="https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/tools/client-side/svnconflict">svnconflict</a> tool which is intended for use in shell scripts.</p> <p>The new conflict resolver offers a variety of automated tree conflict resolution options which users can choose from. Not all kinds of tree conflicts can yet be described and resolved. The options available in Subversion 1.10.0 are listed in the table below. In this table, the items on the incoming and local side are either both files or both directories.

LZ4 offers fast compression and decompression while still maintaining a decent compression ratio.

The special value of <tt>SVNCompressionLevel 1</tt> forces the use of LZ4 compression for clients that support it. All other values result in preferring zlib compression with the respective compression level. Note that the negotiated algorithm is still subject to the client's configuration.
