Hi All,
Is there an easy way to find out a revision number for a particular date? For example I would like to find out the revision number for both FPC and FreePascal for a day back at the end of November 2008, as I know a certain feature was working back then. Then I can grab that that revision and build my app with it etc.

Or will I need to trawl through the SVN code and work it out from there?

Thanks,

Dominique.

2009/5/11, :

You can do:
svn up -r{20081128}
to update your working copy to the revision at the start of 28 November 2008.

Or will I need to trawl through the SVN code and work it out from there?

If you want to know the exact revisions for november try: svn log -r{20081101}:{20081201}

These logs can also be found at:
http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/logs/
But they are complete so for Lazarus
(http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/logs/lazarus-all.log) I usually cancel the load after a couple of seconds, because then I have to for me relevant revisions.

For me, the mirror loads faster:

Hi All, ?Is there an easy way to find out a revision number for a particular date?

For Lazarus I can do the following for you. The SVN revision is the line with the @<revision number> format.

In summary, that's r17627 - r17635 for Lazarus SVN.

Hi All, ?Is there an easy way to find out a revision number for a particular date?

For FPC "fixes" branch svn returns the following revisions.

NOTE:
I have no idea why FPC included the 2008-05-21 date when I didn't ask for it. I guess it's a SubVersion thing. ;-)

/opt/fpc/src $ svn log -r{2008-12-01}
------------------------------------------------------------------------ r12282 | tom_at_work | 2008-11-30 19:30:40 +0200 (Sun, 30 Nov 2008) | 9 lines

Merged revisions 11031 via svnmerge from
