Any alternatives to this awk script to soothen subversion pain?

On my development server, I run svn updates to deploy bug fixes or changes to the webapp's code. Normally I run:

svn stat --show-updates

and then selectively chose whi开发者_运维百科ch files to update; appending the selected files to the end of a svn update command.

I miss GIT's command line interface and as a concession, I just want to improve the speed of performing the updates (but limited to files which do not have conflicts).

e.g. In the following example, I only want to update Country.properties

       *     5602   conf/country/Country.properties
M            5331   conf/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
M      *     5451   conf/scripts/changes.rb

This is the awk snippet that does the trick for me.

#!/usr/bin/awk -f

/*/ { if( NF == 3 ) { system( "svn up " $3 ); } }

My question: Is there an extension to subversion that will act like GIT's git add -i command ? Or is it pretty normal for people to do what I'm doing ?

If I understand you correctly, you want an interactive UI (a la git add -i) which can be used to select which files in your working copy to update from the central repository. If that's the case, then I have to agree with unwind's comment that one shouldn't generally be doing partial tree updates (regardless of which VCS is being used). Accordingly, I don't think I've ever seen an SVN UI that makes it easy to do partial updates, let alone partial updates that use the set of remotely changed files as a starting base.
