Exporting SVN Change Log in Phing
Posted: Jul 17, 2010
Last night I was working on add a phpDocumentor task to a Phing build script I have been working on. While Phing offers integration with phpDocumentor as well as some SVN task such as commuting, updating, and exporting, it doesn't have a native way to export the change log which I would like to include in the documentation. However, one great feature of Phing is how easy it is to expand. I wrote this little ad-hoc task to export the SVN history to a file which I then include in the documentation.
Here is the code if you'd like to add it to your build scripts:
Here is how you call it:

If I ever doubted how much my wife loves (which I don't after she moved to Pittsburgh with me), it is gone. Last night she had the idea that we go see the

The iPad has now been released now and as "neat" as it is, I'm not sure
why people are putting down $500 to $1000 for a new device that doesn't
replace anything and just sets you up to spend more in the future. Lee Brimelow, a
Platform Evangelist at Adobe put together a great graphic demonstrating
the "entire" web that Apple delivers. One point that he hit in his rant
against Apple is this, "APPLE DOES NOT WANT
THE FLASH PLAYER TO PERFORM WELL. They don’t want
you to go to Hulu or play Flash games because they worry that you won’t
buy their apps."
