Re: [cctbxbb] Not wishing to raise this again but...

That's right. In practice I bisect the date instead; that way I can issue the same command in all my svn source directories from sf.net and lbl.gov. For example: svn update -r "{2014-03-08 18:00}" Nicholas K. Sauter, Ph. D.

So why is it so hard to describe how to do bisection? Despite the responses on this BB trying to answer my question, I still don't have a clear understanding of how to do it. With svn it is just "svn update -r”.

I think there is a misunderstanding here. “svn update -r REV” is just “git checkout HASH”. By bisection, I understand “git bisect”, which is a way to automate finding a faulty commit. You don’t need to use that if you find it’s too complicated. Actually, "git bisect" is just some scripting on the top of "git checkout", I think.

I see what you meant! Sorry, it’s late here… You can bisect the svn rev number because they are increasing integers! _______________________________________________ cctbxbb mailing list [email protected] http://phenix-online.org/mailman/listinfo/cctbxbb
