Compare Local checkout version with SVN current version - java

It is possible to check the locally checkout revision number with repository current version.
i.e I checkout a file from repository and made changes locally, before i commit other user checkout the same file and made changes and committed the file. Before commit i need to check whether the local revision and repository version are same or not. so that intimate the user about the revision incompatibility.

SVN does not allow to same changes directly if you have old copy then SVN in your local.
On every commit it change the revision of the file update. And at the time of commiting those changes it will show the difference and will ask to marge or override the changes and difference made by someone else after you pulled.
Also you can use the option "SVN Show Log" and it will show all the updated files If you double click on any of the file it will show the comparision in your working file and the file on SVN.
You can right click on the folder/file and can see the Revision of the file and folder.

It sounds to me like you want to compare your local file with the latest version in the repository.
The "diff" command will compare your local file with the version you checked out:
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn-book.html#svn.tour.cycle.examine.diff
You may also want to use the "status" command to see if anything has changed in the repository since your checkout:
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn-book.html#svn.tour.cycle.examine.status
If neither of these is exactly what you want, I'm sure you can find what you are looking for by browsing those pages a bit.

Overwrite my local changes in TortoiseSVN from latest version

Lets say I did a check out, edited some stuff and realized I want to re-download the repository code and overwrite my local changes without commiting them.
At the time of checkout file version was 100 in SVN,I done some edit and now I want to take latest version from SVN and overwrite the changes I have done. Now the version of the file in SVN is 103,I want this 103 version in my local only and overwrite the chnges i have done.
In some previous post it was suggested that use SVN revert but According to me Svn revert will give me the version of code I have checked out like in my case I checked out 100 version so it will get the 100 version and overwrite it not the latest one i.e 103.
Please help.Using tortiose SVN.
NOTE -this question is already posted but answer are not setisfectory thats why I am posting it again

Remove your local copy and get update from SVN , you will get current version of copy from SVN
As already posted in the comments, The obvious solution would be removing your local copy and make an update from your repository. This way you forget about local changes (obviously, you remove them) and you get the current revision of your project (through the "update" command). I would say that this is an easy solution.
If you think we got something wrong with your problem, please edit your Question to clarify.

Check SVN Access on eclipse

I've been wondering if there's a way to check your svn access on a project. I checkout trunk, then made changes without knowing I don't have an access to commit the file to specific project. This result to "SVN access denied".
I'd like to know if there's a way to check your access first in trunk, without trying to checkout and commit file.

Github shows diff for the same content

I've recently forked a repository. I made a local repository and created a maven project through eclipse. I made the changes I wanted and commited them. Although I made minor changes the differences shown on Github are tremendous. All the file is shown as having been changed. I believe that this is an encoding misalignment. In my eclipse workspace I didn't change anything when I created the project so the default was Cp1253 (Windows 7).
I want to make a pull request for the changes I made, but I want to fix this diff problem before I do that. I don't know what encoding was used in the original project. What are my options?
Check your .gitconfig file in your home directory. Do you have the following setting?
[core]
autocrlf = input

eclipse mercurial conflict after pull: how to pick remote file

I have a repository at bitbucket and I was pulling a changeset from it to Eclipse using Mercurial plugin. Some of the files in Eclipse were modified, so it causes conflicts.
I just want to give up local file and update it with remotes. So I right click project and choose Team - Synchronize with
But what should I click to select remote file and give up a local?
Just right click on the file and select Revert.. as you want to discard your changes.
However in general, if you care about your changes uncommitted workspace update is not recommended. Instead commit your changes first and then rebase or merge after pulling.
Revert - this removes uncommitted changes. It makes the file contents the same as they are in the latest commit
Update - this moves the working directory towards the newest topological head on the current branch.
Rebase - this moves a committed changeset from where it was originally committed so that it becomes based on the target changeset. If in doubt use merge rather than rebase as rebase is an advanced operation.
The problem with uncommitted workspace update is that if there are conflicts there's no easy way to get back to the previous state. If there are conflicts with merge or rebase and you don't want to resolve them now you can press the Abort button in the Mercurial Merge view and it will go back to how it was before.
In Eclipse I can do
right click on file in Package Explorer
Replace with
Another Changeset
select the latest changeset from Remote repository

how can resolve checkin conflict issue in clearcase

When iam checkin the file then that is conflict with other latest version file.How can we resolve this issue?Iam unable to checkin the file sometimes in clearcase.
That means someone already checked-in a new version, which means your own checkout file was an unreserved one.
See cleartool checkin:
If a more recent version of a selected resource is checked in, you must resolve any conflicts between your version and that version before the checkin can proceed.
This typically happens only if you are checking in a resource that was checked out unreserved.
If the differences do not conflict, ClearCase can merge them for you. If there are conflicting changes, you must perform a manual merge using ClearCase merge tools.
Updating the view can work, but you can also trigger the merge directly on that file.
display the version tree
right click on the latest version (which is not yours, and which is checked-in)
select "merge to"
click on your own unreserved checkedout version
That will merge the LATEST into your version without having to wait for a (potentially quite long) view update.
You will be able to check-in your version ofter that.
You have to update your working copy first. When you are updating your source control will try to merge your local changes with changes done by other developers. If it cannot it will mark conflicted points. Then you have to resolve these conflicts manually and mark as resolved. After that you can check your code in.
Good luck.
