USING DREAMWEAVER
Creating and Managing Files
Last updated 3/28/2012
Important: Dreamweaver CS5 uses the Subversion 1.6.6 client library, and Dreamweaver CS5.5 uses the 1.6.9 client
library. Later versions of the Subversion client library are not backward-compatible. Be aware, if you update a third-party
client application (for example, TortoiseSVN) to work with a later version of Subversion, the updated Subversion
application will update local Subversion meta data, and Dreamweaver will no longer be able to communicate with
Subversion. This issue is not affected by updates to the Subversion server as those updates are backward-compatible. If
you do upgrade to a third-party client application that works with Subversion 1.7 or later, you’ll need to check with Adobe
for updates before you can use Subversion with Dreamweaver again. For more information on this issue, see
www.adobe.com/go/dw_svn_en.
Adobe recommends that you use a third-party file comparison tool as you work with SVN version-controlled files.
When you compare files for differences, you can learn exactly what kinds of changes other users made to the files. For
more information on file comparison tools, use a web search engine such as Google Search to search for “file
comparison” or “diff” tools. Dreamweaver works with most third-party tools.
For a video overview of working with SVN and Dreamweaver, see www.adobe.com/go/lrvid4049_dw.
Set up an SVN connection
Before you use Subversion (SVN) as a version control system with Dreamweaver, you must set up a connection to an
SVN server. You set up a connection to an SVN server in the Version Control category of the Site Definition dialog box.
The SVN server is a repository of files from which you and other users can get and commit files. It is different from
the remote server you typically use with Dreamweaver. When using SVN, the remote server remains the “live” server
for your web pages, and the SVN server exists to hold the repository of files over which you want to maintain version
control. The typical workflow is to get and commit files back and forth between the SVN server, and then publish them
to your remote server from Dreamweaver. The remote server setup is completely separate from the SVN set up.
You must have access to an SVN server and an SVN repository before you begin this set up. For more information
about SVN, see the Subversion website at
http://subversion.apache.org/.
To set up the SVN connection, follow these steps:
1 Choose Sites > Manage Sites, select the site you want to set up version control for, and click the Edit button.
Note: If you haven’t already set up local and remote folders for a Dreamweaver site, you’ll at least need to set up a
local site before proceeding. (The remote site is not required at this stage, but you will eventually need to set it up before
publishing your files to the Web.) For more information, see
Working with Dreamweaver sites” on page 34.
2 In the Site Setup dialog box, select the Version Control category.
3 Select Subversion from the Access pop-up menu.
4 Set access options as follows:
Select a protocol from the Protocol pop-up menu. The available protocols are HTTP, HTTPS, SVN, and
SVN+SSH.
Note: Using the SVN+SSH protocol requires special configuration. For more information, see
www.adobe.com/go/learn_dw_svn_ssh_en.
Enter the address for the SVN server in the Server address text box (typically in the form of
servername.domain.com).
Enter the path to your repository on the SVN server in the Repository path text box (typically something like
/svn/your_root_directory. It is up to the server administrator to name the root folder for the SVN repository.)
(Optional) If you want to use a server port other than the default server port, select Non Default and enter the
port number in the text box.
Enter your SVN server user name and password.
