It may be nearly the end of the year, but there’s still time for one more release of Apache Subversion. SVN 1.7.8 features plenty of fixes and enhancements, including:
- Adding missing attributes to “svn log -v –xml” output
- Fixing a hang that could occur during error processing
- Fixing incorrect status returned by 1.6 API
- Adding Vary: header to GET responses to improve cacheability
- Subversion 1.7.8 ignores file externals with mergeinfo when merging
A full list of everything’s that new in Subversion 1.7.8 is available at the Changes file. Free binaries of Subversion 1.7.8 are available to download through the WANdisco website.
