Subversion API bindings: svn2r #24

Closed billdenney closed 2 years ago

billdenney commented 8 years ago

While many people work with git, access to other version control software from R could help. In my wishlist, I'd like to see a subversion R package that would work similarly to git2r.

Link to the subversion library and enable direct access to subversion for tasks like: checkout, update, commit, branch, add, delete, extract logs.

  • Relevant links (For e.g. API docs, related software)

https://subversion.apache.org/

  • Are there other related software?

git2r, subversion

  • What is the target audience

Software developers in R. Anyone needing access to subversion for version control.

  • Do you need help with development or are just suggesting the idea?

Help with development (with basic C++ bindings)

  • What are some potential use cases?

For reproducible research, control data, code, and reports in a subversion archive.

Would you be able to be maintainer/lead development?

billdenney commented 8 years ago

Unfortunately not. I don't work in C enough to make the language bindings. I'm very able to help with the R side of the coding, use cases, tests, etc.

sckott commented 8 years ago

Okay.

I'll post this on our community forum to see if there's any interest
