Automatic updates and commits

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Assembla (http://www.assembla.com/) wants to extend TortoiseSVN with an 'easy' 
mode to get a similar easy handling like DropBox (http://www.dropbox.com/).

Description from our email conversations:

However, we want to add a client-side feature that is not specifically related 
to the svn repository.  We have noticed that a lot of users that we see in 
outsourcing companies and labor exchanges don't use svn effectively, and they 
are using even simpler tools like Dropbox.  I think there are probably about a 
million users in this category.  I also think that Dropbox is a great product 
and a nice way to work.  So, we want to offer some tweaked svn clients - 
"easysvn" - which can be put into a mode that behaves like Dropbox, with 
automatic commit and update, and some simple strategy for keeping the last 
version on a merge conflict.

Ideally we would like to find a developer who will collaborate with the dev 
community and can devote a good chunk of his/her time to this project.
In return we can provide flexible terms and generous compensation.
If you would be interested please submit your info at: 
https://www.assembla.com/search/show_job/862  (please include the note with 
regard to this mailing list)
You can also email me directly, but it is best to use the link as it keeps all 
in one place for our admin process.

Thanks.

P.S.
We have asked Stefan Küng to take on this project, however he is limited in 
available time, but was extremely kind to offer all the help and assistance.
Thank you Stefan!

EasySVN is out which does this job: http://svn-ref.assembla.com/easysvn.html

Also under GPL, and uses TSVN.

We may include something similar in TSVN:

Another idea on how to do this:
Implement a CommitMonitor-like app that can also run updates if it detects new 
commits.

Would be very nice to have!

Today's small enterprise world is getting more and more need to have effective 
and simple version control systems for the less acquainted with the underlying 
techs.

Subversion with automatic commit, update and extremely simple conflict 
resolution could be perfect for small companies with no budget for overwhelming 
fancy VCS.

Are you still looking for an auto-commit?  I actually wrote one myself a while 
ago that makes use of Task Scheduler and will automatically delete or add 
files.  It just does not handle conflict resolution.  I would not mind sharing 
this application if needed.
