upload a folders structures

[JustAnotherRandomUsername]

Hello developers!

I have a scm-server 2.44

How I can upload a folders structure with or without files via web-interface?

dropping folder to scm-server load files only (

Any help please

Hi random user,

you are right: The editor plugin cannot upload whole directory structures. This would have to be done with the native clients (git, svn or hg). Please keep in mind that neither git nor hg can track empty folders. To create folder structures nonetheless, we have the manage folder plugin. Here, you can create single folders. To make this work with git and hg, too, we create small files inside these folders. You still cannot upload whole folder structures in one pass, though.

Hope this helps a bit.

hello pfeuffer(René),
thank you for your answer!

yes you right, usually a developers use an some client-side app for creating files and folders structure. but my case is a user who can't use svn-client softwares for any reasons.

and I still can't understand why uploading folders structure via web-interface is so hard for release in scm-server?

sorry my bad, I have an svn-type repo, and if you can add this ability only for svn-type repos its will be amazing!

ok, i have an idea to solve this issue.

can you add ability (it can be a button in web-interface) to unpack archive

(all steps via web-interface)

for example next logic:

1. user selecting repository
2. user creating ZIP-archive with many folders,subfolders,files locally
3. user uploading this archive to repository via web-interface
4. user selecting this archive and press "unpack" button

expected behavior:

• server unpacking all from this archive
• profit! solved!

optionally:

• add options to restrict access to "unpacking" button
• add options to restrict size of uploding
• add options to check unpacking files with antivirus
• add support tar,bz2,gstd and othe popular formats

thank you!
