Tutorial: Flare 4.2.1 + SVN + TAMTAM SVN SCC
Posted: Thu May 28, 2009 2:31 am
Hi everyone...
my company recently added Source Control to Flare. First, we tried to use the pushOK-Plugin but we had several problems with it as it seems to be very strict concerning TortoiseSVN versions.
After a few hours I tried the following plugin which seems to work very fast:
http://www.daveswebsite.com/software/tamtamsvn/ (1.2.21)
The important thing is to install this plugin and use it with the following svn client:
http://www.sliksvn.com/en/download/ (1.6.2)
After you have installed both be sure to select the correct plugin and to point the plugin in MadCap Flare to the path of the svn.exe of the sliksvn-client.
I hope this may help someone... if you have any questions mail me via r.dieter "a/t" tuneup.de
Good Luck!
PS: Sometimes you might get an "error"-message which is rather a warning/information, not an error. Additionally, I don't want to do advertise for the plugin but I think $9.99 is a good price.
PPS: The author of the TamTam plugin emailed me with an additional advise: use the svn client of collab.net if silksvn doesn't work
