Version 2.4 (May 16, 2014)

Known issues introduced in this version: JENKINS-23146

• svnexternals causing issue with concurrent builds (issue 15098)
• Fix additional credentials help (pull request 69)
• changelog use external path for affected path, not workspace related (issue 18574)
• Call to doCheckRevisionPropertiesSupported broken (issue 22859)
• Subversion Parameters show "Repository URL" instead of the name (issue 22930)
• Plugin takes not excluded revprops from global configuration into account (issue 18099)
• Update MapDB dependency (for multi-branch project types support) to 1.0.1
• Change default of ignoreExternalsOption to true. Add help text explaining some of the security risks involved in checking out externals (namely that they can be a route to hijacking credentials that in most cases have full read access to the entire repository and not just the limited subset of the repository that an individual committer's credentials may have read access to. The recommended way to handle externals is to add those as additional modules directly. Thus ensuring that even if a committers machine is hacked or otherwise compromised, their credentials cannot be used to commit a modified build script and svn:external definition that allows the entire contents of the Subversion repository to be zipped up and FTP'd to a remote server)

Version 2.3 (May 1, 2014)

Note: Version 2.0 contained a fix for JENKINS-18574. However, the fix caused 2 regressions, so it was reverted in this version

• Fixed authentication for externals in post-commit hook JENKINS-21785
• Fixed a regression which broke polling and checkout when using externals JENKINS-22199
• Fixed a regression causing broken changelog entries JENKINS-22778
• Fixed a NPE when running on slaves (See: https://github.com/jenkinsci/subversion-plugin/commit/db5488140a75ddaa2ee56f428b3082854f46f942)
• Fixed an issue with the Subversion Tagging plugin (See: https://github.com/jenkinsci/subversion-plugin/commit/c042204e09e87341fb08ff095cf3b873b7dec130)

Version 2.2 (Feb 18, 2014)

• issue #21679 (side report) failure to find Subversion SCM descriptor if anonymous is missing the credential management permissions
• (pull #67) Improve List Subversion Tags parameter definition performance
• (pull #66) ListSubversionTagsParameterDefinition form validation broken

Version 2.1 (Feb 11, 2014)

• JENKINS-21712 requires an upgrade of the minimum version of the credentials plugin to 1.9.4 and a switch to using the <c:select/> jelly tag for selecting the credentials.
• JENKINS-21701 Added credentials support for the tag parameter type.
• Added credentials support for the tag action.
• JENKINS-18250 (pull #37) Improved authorization check for legacy (pre-credentials) authentication.
• (pull #60) Fixed post-commit cache.

Version 2.0 (Jan 31, 2014)

• Credentials management switched to credentials plugin based implementation. Upgrading to 2.0 will migrate your existing credentials from the semi-random scattered store that pre-2.0 used to the credentials plugin's store. You are advised to take a backup of your Jenkins instance if you have many jobs using different credentials against similar repositories. The following issues have been encountered by users upgrading.
  • The same username required different passwords when accessing a repository from a windows slave or from a *nix slave. Only one password (appears to be random as to which) was imported into the credentials store. Jobs that required the other password had their credentials reset to "none". Solution was to manually add the credential and configure the affected jobs to use the correct credentials.

Version 1.54 (Nov 19, 2013)

• prefer trilead-ssh from plugin vs core classloader (issue #19600)
