Tortoise SVN in Linux? Ubuntu alternatives here..
Nov 12, 2008 Technology
I have spent almost 2 months now trying to find a good alternative for Tortoise SVN in my ubuntu, i have been using Tortoise SVN for a while now, i got very used to the interface now, now i am not able to code without it. I have got so obsessed with it, and well svn cli is good, but its not there near Tortoise SVN.
This morning i can across this blog about how to implement scripts in nautilus that allows users to replicate TortoiseSVN like functionality in ubuntu.
KDESVN is a Visual SVN Client tool that can be installed in Ubuntu. Try this command to install it
>> sudo apt-get install subversion kdesvn kompare
After Installation, you will have to configure the rightclick menu scripts here
>> ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts
create a file called “kdesvn.sh” with the following contents
>> #!/bin/sh
>> kdesvn $1
assign execute rights to that file
>> chmod +x kdesvn.sh
Now open the file browser, you will be able to see KDESVN in the scripts context menu. To activate the SVN client, select some folder in local repository, and try the menu. It will popup the KDESVN interface.

Finding the Right Programmer.
Jun 29, 2008 General, Technology
I was trying to find to resurces to properly evaluate programming candidates and i stumbled upon this article which i thought was perfect 10/10 measure to exactly identify a good progammer. But i am not sure how good this articale will be if we had to apply the same logic in a country like india, where exposure to computers only starts after college. (But when i put down myself in the same race, i did bunk my +2 tutions and school classes to hang out in internet cafes and try out Suse linux 6.3 using at that time’s most advanced installation module-Yast2. Now when i look at myself. i almost manage to score a 9 out of 10 in these questions. ) . Read on this will be really intresting if you are really into programming. Finding the Right Programmer.
