Syncro Soft Announces New Major Release of Syncro SVN Client

Syncro Soft has announced the immediate availability of version 3.1 of its Subversion (SVN) client. Version 3.1 of Syncro SVN Client introduces two new presentation modes in the Synchronize view (the compressed mode and the flat mode), new actions in the Working Copy view, in the History view and in the Synchronize view and a compare folders action on the revision graph of a folder.

New in version 3.1

The compressed mode presents the SVN resources in the Synchronize view as a tree with two levels, grouping the resources by their parent folder. The flat mode presents the SVN resources as a list. These modes are useful when you want to update or commit to the SVN repository the content of a folder without going recursively into its subfolders or for obtaining the complete list of the SVN resources that need to be synchronized.

In the History view it is possible to revert the changes made by a revision to a resource by selecting the revision and locating the resource in the affected paths panel and using the "Revert changes from this revision" action from the contextual menu. The changes are reverted in the current version of the file in the working copy. If the change was in fact a SVN delete operation the result will be the restoring of the deleted file in the working copy.

A new action was added in the contextual menu of the History view for replacing the content of a file from the working copy with the content of a revision of that file from the history.

This action compares the working copy version of a file with a revision from a SVN branch or tag. The branch or the tag can be easily selected using a repository browser dialog.

A new external folder can be created quickly by entering the folder name and the target in a dialog that sets them in svn:externals property.

The set of changes that were committed between two revisions of a folder can be computed with an action executed directly from the revision graph of the folder. The result of this compare action is displayed in the Directory Change Set view.

Syncro SVN Client can be run on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Solaris.
