testMy Old friend the command line
Well I guess I can’t say old friend since I use the CLI more now than I ever have, but I have another application I have started to work with from the command line. During my interview for this new projects they asked me if I had CLI experience with Subversion and I got worried at first that it would keep me from getting the job, but the developer interviewing me said he was starting to move into the CLI. Huge relief, but if they feel their is a need to use svn from the CLI then I should probably learn it. The CLI client actually isn’t that hard, when I first thought about it I said to myself, now how the hell do I commit 1000 files, I’m not doing that by hand. Running a “svn ci svn://url” will actually commit every changed file so it isn’t bad. Since most of the svn usage I get is on my own machines I have very little experience with merging, so I will have to play with that a little and feel confident before I start merging.
Right now I am waiting on my login information because I can’t get in with what I have, I really really hope it isn’t something on my part and makes me look like an idiot. It is important to me to make a good impression with this group and not being able to login wouldn’t look good. I have tried svn, TortoiseSVN, web, the trac server; every method I can and none of them will go through so I am thinking it is not me.
