Detailed Description

A struct that describes a conflict that has occurred in the working copy.

The conflict described by this structure is one of:

a conflict on the content of the file node local_abspath
a conflict on the property property_name of local_abspath
a tree conflict, of which local_abspath is the victim Be aware that the victim of a tree conflict can be a non-existent node. The three kinds of conflict are distinguished by kind.

Note:: Fields may be added to the end of this structure in future versions. Therefore, to preserve binary compatibility, users should not directly allocate structures of this type but should use svn_wc_create_conflict_description_text2() or svn_wc_create_conflict_description_prop2() or svn_wc_create_conflict_description_tree2() instead.

Since:: New in 1.7.

Field Documentation

svn_wc_conflict_action_t svn_wc_conflict_description2_t::action

The action being attempted on the conflicted node or property.

(When kind is 'text', this action must be 'edit'.)

Definition at line 1705 of file svn_wc.h.

const char* svn_wc_conflict_description2_t::base_abspath

If this is text-conflict and involves the merging of two files descended from a common ancestor, here are the paths of up to four fulltext files that can be used to interactively resolve the conflict.

base_abspath, their_abspath and my_abspath are absolute paths.

### Is merged_file relative to some directory, or absolute?

All four files will be in repository-normal form -- LF line endings and contracted keywords. (If any of these files are not available, they default to NULL.)

On the other hand, if this is a property-conflict, then these paths represent temporary files that contain the three different property-values in conflict. The fourth path (merged_file) may or may not be NULL; if set, it represents libsvn_wc's attempt to merge the property values together. (Remember that property values are technically binary values, and thus can't always be merged.)

Definition at line 1734 of file svn_wc.h.

svn_boolean_t svn_wc_conflict_description2_t::is_binary

Whether svn thinks ('my' version of) path is a 'binary' file.

(Only if kind is 'text', else undefined.)

Definition at line 1696 of file svn_wc.h.

const char* svn_wc_conflict_description2_t::mime_type

The svn:mime-type property of ('my' version of) path, if available, else NULL.

(Only if kind is 'text', else undefined.)

Definition at line 1701 of file svn_wc.h.

svn_wc_operation_t svn_wc_conflict_description2_t::operation

The operation that exposed the conflict.

Used only for tree conflicts.
