FlexDeploy - Subversion Plugin Guide
The FlexDeploy Subversion plugin makes it easy to interact with source code stored in the Subversion SCM. There is no need to install an SVN client. The plugin uses a Java based API to interact with SubVersion. FlexDeploy allows users to configure Subversion repository connection details in instances which are shared by various projects. The project specific configuration is stored separately in the projects which allows for easy export and tag operations during workflow executions.
- Create an SCM Instance for Subversion and define the URL, User and Password information. You can also validate the connection when creating SCM Instances.
- Inside of your projects, select Subversion as SCM Type, select the instance that you created, and provide details like Trunk, Branch, Tag Path etc. which are defined as Groovy scripts. The connection there will bring across your repository URL, username, password and authentication methods.
Supported Versions
- 1.7+
Key Features
- No installation necessary
