Options

svn-upgrade accepts the following options on the command-line:

           Default: Off.

       -c | --clean

           More verbose program output

           Default: Off.

       -r | --replay-conflicting
           Extra cleanup run: replaces all conflicting files with upstream versions. Review of svnstatus output

           Turn off interactive mode.

       --ignoreerrors
           In noninteractive mode, ignore errors.

       --ignored-files-actionSTRING
           Make files that are ignored due to subversion ignore patterns to be 'import'ed or 'skip'ed.

       -e | --auto-epoch
           Automatically increase version epoch if the new upstream version is not greater than the current.

       --debclean
           Run debclean before merging the new upstream source.

       Tarballs must be compressed with gzip or bzip2.
