SVN 更改用户名

我发现了很多关于如何更改特定修订的用户名的例子,等等。

但我需要的是: 我使用一个同事的身份验证凭据进行了一次签出,需要将其更改为我的凭据,以便将来提交。

我不能只是结帐与我的凭证,由于许多变化,已经做了..。

有人熟悉这个吗?

You can change the user with

  • Subversion 1.6 and earlier:

    svn switch --relocate protocol://currentUser@server/path protocol://newUser@server/path
    
  • Subversion 1.7 and later:

    svn relocate protocol://currentUser@server/path protocol://newUser@server/path
    

To find out what protocol://currentUser@server/path is, run

svn info

in your working copy.

I believe you could create you own branch (using your own credential) from the same trunk as your workmate's branch, merge from your workmate's branch to your working copy and then merge from your branch. All future commit should be marked as coming from you.

You could ask your colleague to create a patch, which will collapse all the changes that have been made into a single file that you can apply to your own check out. This will update all of your files appropriately and then you can revert the changes on his side and check yours in.

I’ve had the exact same problem and found the solution in Where does SVN client store user authentication data?:

  1. cd to ~/.subversion/auth/.
  2. Do fgrep -l <yourworkmatesusernameORtheserverurl> */*.
  3. Delete the file found.
  4. The next operation on the repository will ask you again for username/password information.

(For Windows, the steps are analogous; the auth directory is in %APPDATA%\Subversion\).

Note that this will only work for SVN access schemes where the user name is part of the server login so it’s no use for repositories accessed using file://.

The easiest way to do this is to simply use the --username option on your next checkout or commit. For example:

svn commit --username newUser

or

svn co --username newUser

It will then be cached and will be used as the default username for future commands.

See also: In Subversion can I be a user other than my login name?

If your protocol is http and you are using Subversion 1.7, you can switch the user at anytime by simply using the global --username option on any command.

When Ingo's method didn't work for me, this was what I found that worked.

Also, for those who happened to realize too late, that they committed with the wrong credentials, the solution (after the fact) is to change the svn author of that revision: see this question

Basically the syntax is:

svn propset --revprop -r (revision_number) svn:author (new username)

Based on Ingo Kegel's solution I created a "small" bash script to change the username in all subfolders. Remember to:

  1. Change <NEW_USERNAME> to the new username.
  2. Change <OLD_USERNAME> to the current username (if you currently have no username set, simply remove <OLD_USERNAME>@).

In the code below the svn command is only printed out (not executed). To have the svn command executed, simply remove the echo and whitespace in front of it (just above popd).

for d in */ ; \
do echo $d ; pushd $d ; \
url=$(svn info | grep "URL: svn") ; \
url=$(echo ${url#"URL: "}) ; \
newurl=$(echo $url | sed "s/svn+ssh:\/\/<OLD_USERNAME>@/svn+ssh:\/\/<NEW_USERNAME>@/") ; \
echo "Old url: "$url ; echo "New url: "$newurl ; \
echo svn relocate $url $newurl ; \
popd ; \
done

Hope you find it useful!

Go to Tortoise SVN --> Settings --> Saved Data.

There is an option to clear Authentication Data, click on the clear button, and it will allow you to select which connection you wanted to clear userid/pwd for.

After you do this, any checkout or update activity, it will reprompt for the userid and password.

The command, that can be executed:

svn up --username newUsername

Works perfectly ;)

P.S. Just a hint: "--username" option can be executed on any "svn" command, not just update.

for Win10 you should remove this folder and close/open your IDE

C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Subversion\auth

, also in my projects no ".subversion" folders, only ".svn"

Tortoise on windows specific:

I attempted the above solution to no available. In my use case, the credentials where stored in the windows Credential Manager under the Windows Credential section and TortoiseSVN refused to change them by running the --username command.

You can edit the credentials by expanding the url for your repo and clicking edit.
