NAME

subatom - produce an atom feed from subversion commits

SYNOPSIS

subatom [-m max] [-o output] REPOSITORY_URL [path ...]

DESCRIPTION

subatom is a small script to produce an Atom feed from subversion commits. You can use this with a feed reader to see new commits to your repository.

The first argument is the URL for your subversion repository. The remaining arguments are paths within the repository for which you would like commit messages. If you don't specify any, it will default to the entire repository.

The -m flag states how many entries you would like in the feed. The default is 30.

If you pass a filename using the -o flag, the output will be written there instead of STDOUT. If the filename already exists then the timestamp will be checked and the new feed will only be written if it actually contains any newer entries. If you will be serving the feed file using a web server, then doing this enables If-Modified-Since to work correctly (ie: feed readers will only download the file if it has actually changed).
