does not work #54

Closed clarkill78 closed 6 years ago

clarkill78 commented 7 years ago

Hi,

I use a portable version of ST3 (3.0 3143) and I always have the following message: This file does not appear to be under version control. And obviously the file IS under svn control.

Bug or I forgot something?

CJTozer commented 7 years ago

Thanks for the report. Can you answer a few questions:

what OS are you running on
what version of SVN are you using
is there any output in the ST3 console when you get this error?

The plugin just tries to work out what VCS the file is using, it's likely that command is failing or bugged.

If there's no output in console, perhaps you could try running with debug: true in the DiffView package settings and grabbing that console output when you see this problem.

Hi,

thanks for your answer.

I'm running on Windows 7 64bits and it is uptodate.
TortoiseSVN 1.7.11, build 23600 - 64 bits and subversion 1.7.8

I have activated the debug mode and does not have any particular message, nothing usable: "DiffView running in debug mode" and then I have the popup saying that my file is not under control.

how can I check my CVS? I guess the issue comes from the call to this program. Is it a lib or an executable?

I had the same issue and found here, I later resolved this by installed tortoise svn again and making sure the cli client is checked and installed, it's not installed by default. Looks like the plugin requires CLI svn command to get the diff output.

Hope this helps the next person.

@andycjw thanks - that's really helpful.

Yes, DiffView does rely on having command-line clients installed (and in your PATH) to work.
