“Internal SVN working copy”

“Update time stamps (speeds up SVN status display)”

: Corrects recorded time stamps for unchanged files in the working directory. This leads to a reduction in the compare time for future checks. It is not necessary to execute this in regular intervals in the normal workflow.

“Vacuum cached pristine copies (may reduce the size of your project file)”

: Cleans the buffer for the original copies by deleting older versions that are no longer referenced by the current project. Advantage: The size of the project file is reduced. Disadvantage: If you downgrade to older revisions, or if you switch between different branches, then the retrieved data size will become larger.

“Clear work queue and force unlock of SVN internal data structures (emergency only!)”

: Cleans up the internal SVN task queues and unlocks internal SVN data structures. This should never be necessary during normal work by Professional Version Control.

Note: Use this option only if errors occur for SVN commands due to locked working copies. When this is the case, it refers to an error in Professional Version Control. Then please send us an error report (if possible with steps to repeat) to the CODESYS support.

Info: These are administrative locks that are internal locks in the SVN working copy. These locks are not set up by context menu commands. For more information, refer to the section "The three meanings of locks" in: ‎⮫ http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.8/svn.advanced.locking.html

“Project contents”

“Revert all local changes (use with care!)”

Reverts all local changes to the original status in the SVN repository.

“Release all locks”

Releases all advisory locks in the project (locks visible to the user). These locks are activated by “Acquire lock” and “Steal lock”.

“Revalidate all locks against the repository (they could have been stolen)”

Checks whether the locally available advisory locks are still valid or have been stolen by someone else for example. All invalid locks are removed.

“Status caches”

“Clear all caches and refresh status icons”

Deletes all internal caches that Professional Version Control has and updates the status icons. Required only if it issues an error in Professional Version Control through which the caches or the status display are inconsistent.
