Pelicans Are Evil

 

Restricting passwords is a no-no!

It's this simple. Please don't enforce maximum length passwords, or specific characters in passwords. I like my random 14 character password. It's 14 characters for a reason, and it's random for a reason. I hate being told you have to simplify your password and absolutely no justification as to why I have to lower my security standards so it can work with someone else's website. I agree passwords should have a minimum length of 6-8 characters (generally), however restricting the maximum is like punishing you for trying to do the right thing and having a decent password.

People who do this should at least have the "minerals" to explain why they are enforcing such a stupid policy.

Of course if you still continue to enforce this practise I'll be forced to eat your babies!  ¶ 9:33 PM 0 Comments Links to this post

 

SVN Exporter 1.0.1.5 released

I know I've only just released 1.0.0.4, but I've quickly added in some missing functionality that I've needed. There are 2 new additions that didn't quite make the 1.0.0 release:

• Output window with a list of exported files (+ there paths)
• Better svn.exe detection.

1.0.0.4 of SVN Exporter Released

It seems like my last release of SVN Exporter was missing some dependencies from the installer. If you downloaded the previous version and were unable to install it please download the newer version linked below. If you're fortunate enough to install the previous version without any hickups you don't need to upgrade, as there is no other bug fixes or features.

SVN Exporter: Export between revisions

The lack of native exporting options has led me to create SVN Exporter. Simply it allows you to export your svn url between specific revisions.

While you can achieve this function manually, this simple application takes all the hard work out of it. All it requires is that you have .NET installed (the installer should handle this if you don't have it).

I've styled the interface like TortoiseSVN, so it has that familiar feel. In a future version I hope to be able to hook into tortoise's log viewer to help with specifying a correct url/revision numbers.

Edit: Sorry, ive updated the url to the correct file. Also there seems to be a VS2008 problem which may cause an error when installing.

Try downloading my first release!  ¶ 4:11 PM 0 Comments Links to this post
