So the whole reason I started this stupid blog was so I’d have a place to fall back on with all the interesting crap I found on the interwebz. Yeah, that worked out well…

So why the hell am I not just adding every cool thing I find?!? Because it is way easier to bookmark it. Hell, I use this pre-alpha version of Oxite and I gotta type in my HTML markup by hand. How archaic is that! [Edit: not any more!]

Well, here is a great link to TortoiseSVN automation. I have been working towards completely automating our release procedure, and we always had the Tortoise dialog that we had to click “OK” for every time. We all know how completely annoying that can be, right? Well, no more!

Example

What good is this post without some sort of example, right? Well here you go.

We used to do something like so:

"C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\TortoiseProc.exe" /command:update /path:%FOLDER%

That has the annoying dialog. So now we just do the following:

"C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\TortoiseProc.exe" /command:update /closeonend:2 /path:%FOLDER%

That handy little /closeonend saves my click-finger! Voila! The post goes into detail on the parameter, so have a look.
