SVN stupidity
Ok, I have the attention span of a three year old and a memory like a goldfish. I’ve come to accept this. Everyday I go and make coffee and everyday I forget that the kitchen light switch is on the left, not the right (er, maybe I have that backwards … I should check). Likewise, every time I checkout some source code from an SVN repos I mess up the path and end up with all the code living inside a folder called trunk. Not the end of the world but just annoying enough to blog about. As a reminder to me here is how to do it:
svn checkout https: … /path/to/code/trunk local_directory
I always forget the space between trunk and local_directory. Laugh if you must, it is kind of funny.
