System Properties
The vast majority of SmartSVN’s system properties can be configured by
editing the file smartsvn.properties in the settings directory.
Note
The file
smartsvn.propertiescontains only settings for SmartSVN itself. If you want to configure your Subversion working copies, have a look at the Subversion configuration files instead.
First, open the settings directory. Its default location is described in
Default Location of SmartSVN’s Settings Directory.
In the settings directory, you will find the smartsvn.properties file.
Open it with a text editor, such as Windows Notepad.
Each of the settings in smartsvn.properties is specified on a separate
line, according to the following syntax: key=value. If a line starts
with # , the entire line is treated as a comment and ignored by
the program.
The following list shows the available system property keys:
Networking
java.net.preferIPv4Stack
By default, SmartSVN prefers to connect via IPv4. To connect via IPv6
instead, set this option to false.
http.nonProxyHosts
Use these properties to specify servers to connect directly to,
bypassing the configured proxy, for example: *.foo.com|localhost.
Note, that only internal code of SmartSVN is honoring
http.nonProxyHosts. This does not include Subversion itself.
Update Check
smartsvn.updateCheck.enabled
Set to false to disable the automatic checking and disallow the manual
checking for new program versions by hiding the corresponding menu items
Help|Check for New Version and Help|Check for Latest Build.
You should only turn this check off for network installations where
SmartSVN users may not be able to perform the update themselves.
If you just want to switch off automatic checking,
use smartsvn.updateCheck.automatic=false instead.
smartsvn.updateCheck.automatic
Set to false to disable the automatic check for new versions on a
global level which can be convenient e.g. for network installations. To
disable the check for an individual installation/user, better do that in
the Preferences, section SmartSVN Updates.
smartsvn.updateCheck.alwaysUpgradeToLatestBuild
Set to true to make SmartSVN check for the availability of a
new latest build on start up. Latest Builds are the “bleeding edge”
builds between subsequent (minor) release builds, like between version
8.0.1 and 8.0.2 or 8.1 preview 3 and 8.1 preview 4. They will contain
the latest improvements and bugfixes. Usually we will ask you to
manually fetch the latest build using Help|Check for Latest Builds.
Debug Properties
log4j.[category]
Use this property to enable debug logging for certain SmartSVN modules;
[category] has to be replaced by the appropriate module identifier.
Example
To enable debug logging for the Refreshing modules, set following properties:
log4j.smartsvn.refresh=DEBUG log4j.sc.vcs.model.refresh=DEBUG
