Re: Using Subversion in Komodo

Yes, you need to convert to live folders.  Once you do that, Komodo
will see all your changes, and be much happier.

I'm not 100% familiar with Macs, but I'm sure you can use System
Preferences to manipulate users and groups. Personally, I would create
a subversion group, and then add myself to that group. Once the group
was created, I would find the repository using finder, select that
folder, press Apple+i and use that to recursively change permissions
on the folder.

cheers,
Anton
