Tortiose SVN - Missing the setting to - Use "_svn" instead of ".svn"

Question

I just updated from SVN 1.6 to SVN 1.7. My Icon overlays aren't showing up. In looking at SVN's settings in 1.7, I no longer have the option to use "_svn" directories. This is likely why I'm having issues. Does anyone know how to make SVN 1.7 use _svn directories again?

Answer 1

This is what i found in the help of the new Version.

As of version 1.4.0 and later, the TortoiseSVN installer doesn't provide the user with the option to set the SVN_ASP_DOT_NET_HACK environment variable anymore, since that caused many problems and confusion for users who always install everything no matter whether they know what it is for.

But that option is only hidden for the user. You still can force the TortoiseSVN installer to set that environment variable by setting the ASPDOTNETHACK property to TRUE. For example, you can start the installer like this:

msiexec /i TortoiseSVN-1.4.0.msi ASPDOTNETHACK=TRUE
