Subversion source control for VS Code (Modified)

This is a modified version of johnstoncode.svn-scm with some additional features I need for my work, and the project dependencies have been updated to make building easier in newer versions of VSCode and Node.js.

What's Different

1. Ignore VSCode Exclude Rules

Two new settings allow you to bypass VSCode's built-in file exclusion rules, so SVN can manage files that VSCode or other tools normally hides:

• svn.sourceControl.ignoreFilesExclude — Ignore VSCode's files.exclude settings. Useful when development tools (e.g., Unity) hide certain files (like .meta files) in the explorer but you still need to manage them in SVN.
• svn.sourceControl.ignoreSearchExclude — Ignore VSCode's search.exclude settings.

2. SVN Command Hooks

A new simple hook system allows you to run custom commands before or after SVN operations. This is especially useful for tools like Unity that generate companion files (e.g., .meta files) that must be managed alongside the original files.

Setting: svn.hooks.commands

Each hook entry has:

• hook — Timing + command name, e.g., preAdd, postAdd, preRemove, postRemove, preCommit, postCommit, preRevert, postRevert, preUpdate, postUpdate
• command — The shell command to execute. Supports variable substitution.

Supported Variables:

Example (Unity .meta file auto management):

"svn.hooks.commands": [
    {
        "hook": "postAdd",
        "command": "\"$(svn)\" add \"$(file).meta\""
    },
    {
        "hook": "preRemove",
        "command": "\"$(svn)\" del \"$(file).meta\""
    }
]

3. Localization (i18n)

Full Chinese (zh-cn) translation support for all settings and commands. VSCode will automatically display the appropriate language based on your locale setting.

Prerequisites

Note: This extension leverages your machine's SVN installation,
so you need to install SVN first.

Windows

If you use TortoiseSVN, make sure the option Command Line Tools is checked during installation and C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin is available in PATH.

Settings

Here are all of the extension settings with their default values. To change any of these, add the relevant Config key and value to your VSCode settings.json file. Alternatively search for the config key in the settings UI to change its value.
