SVN configuration with SAS Di for version control

[rara]

Hi There,

I am trying to attain version control in SAS Di using SVN .

And at this point I am stuck up with the configuration.

As per the details i have, i have SAS Di installed in my desktop and trying to get SVN configured.

Could anyone help me with the steps to get it done , as i am unclear about the process and also new to this..?

I went through few online pages , but was not up to the mark.

Regards,

So what online pages did you went through, and in what way weren't they up to the mark?

What have you tried so far?

HI Linus,

And on the data not up to the mark , i meant on the set up details.

Also i am doing it from the scratch.

Hello @rara,

I assume you also went through the pre-requisite steps, such as having a SVN server. What is your specific problem?

Hello @rara  please find below the important steps to achieve it:

Step 1: Tortoise SVN configuration on Client machines

Important: Ensure that Tortoise SVN has the command line tools for installation component installed.

Step 2: Create a folder named archive on the following location on your machine:

C:\Program Files\SASHome\SASVersionedJarRepository\eclipse\plugins

Step 3: Then move the following folders inside the one created on step 2:

• sas.dbuilder.versioncontrol.cvsplugin.nls_904600.0.0.20181017190000_v940m6
• sas.dbuilder.versioncontrol.cvsplugin_904600.0.0.20181017190000_v940m6
• sas.dbuilder.versioncontrol.git.nls_904600.2.0.20181031190000_v940m6
• sas.dbuilder.versioncontrol.git_904600.0.0.20181017190000_v940m6

Step 4: Next, configure the connection parameters to the SVN Server in SAS Data Integration Studio (DIS) and test the connection.

Note: If you get an error, see the log on your machine at:
C: \ Users \ youruser \ AppData \ Roaming \ SAS \ SASDataIntegrationStudio \ 4.904

And that's it. 🙂

I recommend configuring the “Builtin” feature of checking-in / checking-out objects in SAS DI Studio for a full nice expercience on the flow of versioning.
