Netbeans, Subversion and Mac
NetBeans has SVN support pretty much out-of-the-box, but on OS X you will be presented with the not so obvious message
NetBeans Subversion support requires Subversion 1.3 executable!
Install Subversion 1.3 (http://subversion.tigris.org) or later,
add it to PATH,
test by running ’svn –version’ from command line, and
finally restart IDE, please
Since I apparently has forgotten how I made it work before here is the instruction for future reference, hopefully this will save me (and perhaps others) from some frustration.
- Fire up a terminal
- Navigate to your Netbeans installtion folder like
cd /Applications/NetBeans5.5.app/Contents/Resources/NetBeans/bin - Open the netbeans file in your favorite editor
- On the first line (after comments) add
PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin
export PATH - Save the file, and restart NetBeans
Your all set!
