The first functional SVN (Subversion) client for Android that correctly uses the SVN protocol! Works for http:// https:// and svn:// repositories! svn+ssh:// (and private key) has been added, please email me with input on it.

OASVN is a free and Open Source software licensed under the Lesser GPL. This Professional version receives bug fixes and general stability updates that the free version does not get and helps support development of OASVN. I will be adding additional nice features to the pro version only, but I want to keep the free version fully functional as an subversion client.

Major changes in this version include
• svn+ssh:// + private key support
• a local and repository browser with many features
• Conflict detection and resolution!
• Working copies can now be saved anywhere in the filesystem.

This version of OASVN supports the following SVN operations:
• Checkout (Head or Choose Revision)
• Update
• Commit
• Add (files added to the working copy directory are automatically added on commit
• Export (allows complete export from the remote repo or just exporting just one file from either the working copy or the remote repository).
• Cleanup
• Revert
• Conflict Resolution!!!! (Notification of conflicts happens during update and conflicted files are marked in the local browser, clicking on the file in the local browser presents resolution options

Additional features:
• Remote Repository browse allows the ability to export any single file to your local file system
• Remote Revision list with complete details of files added/deleted/modified, author, commit comments, date, etc.
• Log keeps track of all successes and failures on a connection basis and retains information until you clear it out.
• Local Repository browsing allows you to export from your local copy, open files via intent by mime type (should present your with the correct application choices for the job, it is up to the application to respect opening the file by URI) and also shows svn status of files in conflict, or locally updated.
• New svn+ssh code with private key support! (again this is not well tested, I would appreciate feedback using the jira: http://www.valleytg.com/jira
• Now allows you to save working copies and exports anywhere on the local file-system. (the predetermined /mnt/sdcard/OASVN has been removed)

Major Contributors to the project include: (Thank You!)
Tim Jagenberg : svn+ssh with private key
Sascha Zieger (qxontic): local browser and export ability

Also there is English and German language support. Currently looking for help with French, Japanese and Russian translations, if you can help, there is more information at these links:
French : http://www.valleytg.com:8090/browse/OASVN-35
Russian : http://www.valleytg.com:8090/browse/OASVN-15
Japanese : http://www.valleytg.com:8090/browse/OASVN-14

Translations in any language welcome!

We have taken every precaution to ensure this works correctly, but please make sure to back up your repositories regularly!

I usually use it like this...

open oasvn
add repos / checkout
all checked out files will go to your mountable storage (most of the time /mnt/sdcard/OASVN or OASVNlite

Once the checkout is complete I open AIDE and use the file browser to navigate to the directory where the checkout took place.. If you use eclipse for your projects you can just click on the project to open it in AIDE..

Do your changes and testing..

Go back to oasvn and commit.

Done. (until next change :p)

I've been using this application and I congratulate you, it's really useful!

I just want to ask for some functionality, when you have the time you could implement some way to check the repository history - all the commits and comments associated with them.

I believe most android users just need an app to check for updates in their repository rather than checkout the project on the device.

Thank you again, the app is really good.

Thank you very much... I have just committed code that will handle a local log of what is going on. And I agree with your point about seeing what the status / history is of the remote repository. I will make this a priority, it is right in line with what I have planned..

Thanks again..

I'm trying the application pro version and it's a great idea., something that i was really missing in Android.

I'm finding a major issue, i'm able to checkout the porject but when i try to commit any change (just a new file created) i'm getting an error (-1 field in the screen) and the revision field is reset to -1, i don't detect any communication attempt in httpserver logs.

I'm using https (with http the behaviour is similar) and the device is a galaxy nexus with 4.0.4

Thank you for the report, and your follow up. I was able to reproduce the problem, I should have it fixed soon.

You can follow the progress of the fix here: http://www.valleytg.com:8090/browse/OASVN-11

I have a new version almost ready that includes logging and browsing all revisions. I am pretty sure it will be up this weekend. I will make sure this fix gets in it.

Thank you for this app! I am currently exporting my ROM to my phone, AWESOME! I might go paid soon once I play with it :) Only one suggestion, add a downloaded content percentage like tortoise, or an estimated time to completion. I've been downloading the ROM for well over 30 minutes lol and no idea how close to done it is :) Thanks again!

Thanks

I have been looking at ways to get show some sort of feedback on how far along it is... I created a jira for it you can check the progress here: http://www.valleytg.com:8090/browse/OASVN-48

I checked your r146 out and it took over 30 minutes... Exporting is alot faster for getting the full rom (more like 10 to 15 minutes), but every export takes the same amount of time. But checking out and updating, the updates are much faster. I updated from r146 to r164 in just a minute.

    New Professional version released

    I just released a new Profession version 1.0.10.1 this brings some bug fixes for the professional version.

    What's in this version:
    Major changes in this version include
    • svn+ssh:// + private key support
    • a local and repository browser with many features
    • Conflict detection and resolution!
    • Working copies can now be saved anywhere in the filesystem.

    Version 1.0.10 released

    I have released a new version (1.0.10) a lot has changed! (I have updated the original post with new screenshots and description).

    First and most importantly I have brought back the free version is back on the market! I had previously distributed it here on the forums and only the paid professional version was available on the market. Now it is back on the market and is completely unrestricted and ad free.

    The pro version is not updated yet, but will be soon. I did this on-purpose I want to make sure there is some time to shake out the new code and then will update the pro version in a couple of weeks. I will be added some nice bells and whistles to the pro version as time goes on but for now it is a considered to be a more stable build and a place to donate to the effort.

    I made these changes because I want to project to grow into the best svn client for android. There are not enough completely open source, community software on the android platform and this kind of project seems to be the perfect fit (In my completely unbiased opinion :p )

    Please scream at me in the JIRA if anything is broken and not on the market comments if at all possible.

    There are a lot of fixes and new features in this version the OP has it mixed in with all the existing ones, here is a list of the jira tickets that made it in this version.

    I found that interesting. You might want to expand on the features, and add some screenshots here.
