SvnBranch task

Creates an SVN branch based on a local SVN workspace or a remote repository. This task requires the standard SVN directory layout ([module]/trunk, [module]/branches/[branch], [module]/tags/[tag]).

Configuration

Property	Description	Default value
svnUrl	The repository URL that should be branched. This must point to either a trunk, a branch, or a tag. Branches are always created from HEAD. If this property is missing, the local workspace will be branched instead (see workspaceDir below).
workspaceDir	The local workspace that should be branched. Will only be used if the svnUrl property is missing.	$project.projectDir
branchName	The name of the new SVN branch (required)
replaceExisting	If the branch already exists, delete it first	false
localChanges	If the workspace contains changes, commit those changes to the new branch	false
specialChars	Set to true if the target name contains arbitrary chars (as supported by the current SVN server and operation system). If false, only a reduced subset of chars (a-z, A-Z, 0-9, "_", "-", ".", and "/") is allowed	false
commitMessage	A commit message (optional)
username	The SVN username - leave empty if no authentication is required	$project.svntools.username
password	The SVN password - leave empty if no authentication is required	$project.svntools.password
