Issue
In Tools>Options>Miscellaneous>Versioning>Subversion, I can't type the Repository URL under "Manage Connection Settings..." It just shows me a blank drop-down menu when I click on the input field. Also, if I select "SvnKit" under "Preferred client", it doesn't configure it this way, I click OK but when I come back to the options menu, "CLI" is marked and I can't use this because it's deprecated, according to the Netbeans website ( http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqSubversionClients ). When I try to use the checkout, I get:
NetBeans Subversion support required a Subversion client!
Install Subversion Commandline Client
1. Download and Install Subversion 1.5 or later (http://collabnet.net/netbeans).
2. Add it to PATH.
Test the installation by running 'svn --version' from a command line
3. Restart the IDE
I've specified C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin under my PATH environment variable but I still get
'svn' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
I'm running Tortoise 1.8.3 on Win 8 x64 Netbeans 7.3.1
Solution
TortoiseSVN is a GUI and Windows-Integrated svn client. It doesn't provide the svn.exe and svn tools Netbeans needs. (See the reference to -commandline- in the error message.) Collabnet or cygwin can provide the proper tools for Netbeans.
