Assembla uses Subversion 1.12.2 and we highly recommend customers to use SVN 1.12+ based clients for the best experience. If you are using an outdated, pre-1.12 client, you should consider upgrading otherwise SVN stability will suffer significantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are having issues, here’s a quick list of the most common problems to check:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. You are using the latest possible SVN Client version;<\/li>
  2. You have the appropriate permissions to commit\/checkout your Assembla repository;<\/li>
  3. Your Assembla space is not restricted;<\/li>
  4. Your Internet connection is stable;<\/li>
  5. In case of authentication issues, make sure to clear cached credentials. On UNIX-based systems, authentication data should be stored in $HOME\/.subversion\/auth<\/code>. Windows systems store auth data in %APPDATA%\\Subversion\\auth;<\/code>.<\/li>
  6. Use version 1.12+, as there were various fixes to HTTP\/HTTPS client-side implementation starting with 1.8.10;<\/li>
  7. If all of the above is true and you are still experiencing issues, try to perform a fresh checkout into a brand new folder.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Still experiencing issues?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Your SVN client name and version?<\/li>
    2. Operating System name and version?<\/li>
    3. SVN repository URL (checkout URL or SVN tool URL you see in the address bar)?<\/li>
    4. Approximate size of your SVN repository?<\/li>
    5. Nature of repository files – like having a large amount of small files, or large binary files inside?<\/li>
    6. Traceroute results to subversion.assembla.com?<\/li>
    7. Is it only one (or some) of your Assembla repos having the problem, versus all<\/em> your repos?<\/li>
    8. Are all users on experiencing the problem, or only some users?<\/li>
    9. Are the affected users all at the same location?<\/li>
    10. If an answer for (9) is yes, can some of them try the same operation on the same repo from a different location?<\/li>
    11. Have you seen this problem in the past? If so, did it require a fix from us?<\/li>
    12. At what time, UTC, did this current problem start?<\/li>
    13. Did you try via command line?<\/li>
    14. Is your internet speed to all other websites as fast as usual?<\/li>
    15. Did you check with your Networking team for any issues on your company’s end?<\/li>
    16. Additional details – e.g. are you checking out the whole repository, or a single directory like \/trunk etc.;<\/li>
    17. If you are using SVN with Jenkins – let us know the Jenkins SVN Plugin version and the Java version you have installed on a server.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n


      Please note that most of the issues are client-specific. To make sure the issue is specific to your particular SVN client, please use the command line client instead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
