Create a .bak file before update => useful in case of conflict.

ui => how ?
cli => handle non interactive mode in scripts

Don't popup user on commit when everything is ok.

Hi,

I was wondering if this nice project is to be continued in the near future. Will there be some improvements in stability or in handling specific issues concerning the usage of version control with Freeplane mindmaps? Are there other projects like this one?

Thanks.

Add a script to go back in versions

• Get version
• Reload map

while pushing F10-F12, I'm getting the error "The versionning system has timed out (check your connection)".

my versionning system is GIT my operating systen is windows 8, and repository is located on remote server
-I have configured other tools working fine - like tortoiseGit and SourceTree, but freeplane collaborative tools add-on fails to connect.

another issue:
Tools>addons>Configure shows correct path to git: http://joxi.ru/ud6iU_3JTJDlPT0KMIo
anyway when clicking OK the validation errors appear: http://joxi.ru/8N6iUxjKTJBNHzaRB1U

do a cvs status before action

Replace the CVS output with a user friendly message :

• get the output
• if the output starts witch "M ...", tell the user "The map has been localy modified : you should commit it."

Stop the vcs properly if the expected behavior doesn't occurs.

case : try to do a cvs update with no ssh connection

I notice you have implemented SVN utilising the TortoiseSVN client, although my school-years French makes my understanding incomplete.
With the advent of Freeplane for the Mac I was wondering if it might be possible to implement something like RapidSVN to allow cross-platform collaboration. I am not Java competent so my ability to contribute is probably nil. My reason for asking is that I am involved in an open source design collaborative called OpenIDEO (www.openideo.com) and I believe collaborative mind-mapping would be of significant use to that community.
Cheers Paul

ubuntu 12.04 64 bits, language : french
freeplane 1.3.11
git 1.7.9.5

when configuring the addon (git path : /usr/bin/git) I've got the following message :
Le format de date n'est pas valide (The date format is not valid)
Le format de date/heure n'est pas valide (The date/hour format of is not valid)
Le format de nombre n'est pas valide (The format of number is not valid)
Merci de modifier les préférences (Thank you for modifying the preferences)

What should I do ?

Add a preference to hide/show commands and outputs.

• pompt user for commit message through a textarea input
• create a temporary file with commit message
• commit with -F parameter

Hi, Sebastian.

I tried to co-work using your plugin+svn and it's not possible in real life because of conflicts. if I and my friend change different nodes simultaneously, then one of us gots a conflict. And it can be solved using a diff utility, which is not acceptable for a non-programmer user.

So the only collaboration is possible when one work and the other doesn't. So my friend can work only after I save+commit and he updates. And I cannot work till he saves-commits and I update.

i thought about a timer for save-commit-update each 1 second, but it reloads the document after each update.

is this possible to create some logic to solve most conflicts automatically? I.e. new nodes are added, while only the same conflicting nodes are the problem to solve manually.

What do you think?

todo :

• check if the abort message is sent to outstream or errstream
• look fort a given string ("abort" ?)
• replace the whole message with "Commit aborted : empty log message"

periodically check for new versions of the add-on

Add a script that would :

• periodically commit change to vcs (default log message)
• periodically check for updates and prompt user if the file has been modified

Goal : ease collaborative working

Due to file format changes between version, it would be safer to check that the same freeplane version is used by all users.

Check if there is an "origin" ?
Or add a preference.

When there is no cvs commit message, freeplane hangs since cvs is waiting for a user input (abort, continue...).

If the map has been modified on the cvs and updated => reload it in freeplane.
