Added SVN Generic action in order to add my own command line parameters:

--non-interactive --password myPassword --username myUserName --accept theirs-conflict

Error

Output from C:\Program Files\SlikSvn\bin\svn.exe  
svn: 'theirs-conflict  
' is not a valid --accept value  
&nbsp;

It looks like the parameters being sent for the accept arguments are surrounding the strings with single quotes.&nbsp; I can't find a work around.

Hi Jason,

I've just had a look at the problem you are having and it seems that this is occurring because you are specifying an invalid argument.

The Subversion Generic action passes the command to the command line exactly as it is entered within the textbox (no quoting is added). When I opened up a windows command prompt and passed your command to svn.exe, I got the same return message:

_svn: 'theirs-conflict' is not a valid --accept value_

The quoting you are seeing is being added by svn.exe.

The valid arguments for the _--accept_ switch are:

- postpone

- base

- mine-full

- theirs-full

- edit

- launch

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Steve.
