SVN-DO(1)

💖 SVN-DO(1) 💖

svn-do — the little command reference from your Command reference era, bestie. This is the manual page for svn-do, and it's about to be your new hyperfixation. 🦋

---

✨ NAME ✨

svn-do — export a source and run a command inside the source. That's the whole vibe. 🫶

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

svn-do COMMAND

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so here's the tea ☕: svn-do will use svn-buildpackage to export a source, run a command inside the exported source, and then — and this is the main character moment — if the command succeeds, it copies back the debian/ tree. 💅

---

✨ EXAMPLES ✨

🌸 clean the tree (useful if this requires the full source tree)

$ svn-do debclean
I: Exporting source tree via svn-buildpackage...
[...]
I: Running command: debclean
[...]
I: Copying back the debian/ tree...
'debian/control' -> 'path/package/debian/control'

🌸 use quilt to refresh a patch

$ QUILT_PATCHES=debian/patches svn-do \
 sh -c "quilt push 002_static-linking-dont-build-perf.patch; \
 quilt refresh"
[...]
I: Copying back the debian/ tree...
[...]
'debian/patches/002_static-linking-dont-build-perf.patch' ->
'/path/package/debian/patches/002_static-linking-dont-build-perf.patch'

🌸 Start a source editing session and decide later not to copy back the debian/ tree

$ svn-do $SHELL
[...]
I: Running command: /bin/zsh
% exit 1
E: command exited with 1; not copying back the debian/ tree.

notice how the exit status said no and the copy-back said no too 😭 the command has to succeed for the debian/ tree to come home. fr fr.
