Bash completion for subversion commands and remote repositories
This script is a merge between Apache's subversion bash completion and Androa's subversion remote repositories completion
To install the script simply add source /path-to/svn-completion.sh in .bashrc or .profile files in your home directory
When you type svn in your terminal you can then press TAB key to complete the commands for subversion like merge, checkout, etc. When you type for example svn merge -- and you press the TAB key it will complete all of the arguments for merge command like --revision, --non-interactive, etc. To autocomplete remote paths simply add ^/ as argument and press TAB and it will start completing remote paths based on the base path of your repository.
Q: Script is not working, what might be the problem?
A: On some systems bash complete might not be activated, to activate it add this code to your .bashrc file
[[ $PS1 && -f /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion ]] && \
. /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion
Q: When I want to complete remote path nothing happens, any ideas?
A: You need to be in a directory where you have checkout a repository, so the script knows which is the base path of the repostitory. Or if you are in a repo folder, sometimes the server where the repository is located may need few seconds to respond on svn list command (this command is used to create and show a list with all the remote directories). The delay in svn list command will happen only once per terminal session.
