Arborist – Subversion Tree Doctoring
I made Arborist because dealing with merging between subversion branches is a pain in the arse. The particular merge problem it is trying to solve is when you have multiple release branches of a project, like this:
trunk – all changes from rel2 and rel1 need to get into here
rel2 branch – all changes from rel1 need to get into here
rel1 branch
It provides tools to keep track of what still needs to be merged in, and assists with the merging process.
In addition, it is designed to deal with projects that are broken down into separate modules, linked together with svn:externals references.

Codebase is developed in Ruby, using the Rails framework for the web application. In addition to this we have also developed our own libraries which power two of the most important parts of the system. Tripod is a library which provides SCM-agnositic access to repositories allowing us to easily interface with Git, Mercurial or Subversion repositories using a unified API. SCAM is our “source control access manager” and it interfaces directly with the Codebase database to control access to all repositories – regardless of the SCM, your request for access will pass through SCAM. We’ll post some blog entries with more details about our actual infrastructure in the next few weeks.

Forget everthing you know about branches. Your knowledge of what a ‘branch’ means in Subversion is poisonous, especially if you internalized it pre-1.5, like I did, before Subversion finally grew some basic merge tracking capabilities. Forget how painful it was to merge, forget how long it took to switch branches, forget how impossible it was to merge from a branch more than once – Git gives you a whole new world when it comes to branching and merging.
