Installing cygwin subversion?

<< < (3/3)

bluebrother, I had been given that advice by saratoga and commented on it and still you feel the need to push that same advice once more- the same thing happened on irc by others. If you take it personally that is your thing, it is not intended to be so. Please exhibit some professional courtesy and as I said respect my point of view.

This has nothing to do with not wanting advice. The topic was regarding subversion from the cygwin installer, not whether to run a windows or linux dev environment so the advices are off-topic. And as I said at this time I don't feel a need to go for two dev vm's and if cygwin becomes a hassle I will install a linux vm.

Well, not after you commented on it. You commented on it after I added another comment (which, by the way, also includes a hint about the differences for subversion clients on different platforms, but it seems that is unimportant. I even verified how svn behaves on Cygwin 1.7 in the meantime but well, doesn't seem to be interesting at all). I also detailed in setting up a Linux VM since you were claiming things that are simply wrong -- installing things on Cygwin is simply not faster than installing a Linux VM, especially since you have to build the compilers yourself. So claiming that I "pushed that same advice once more" is simply inadequate.

That's not my fault. But have you considered that the way you want to go might be a really bad idea since so many people -- according to what you said -- tell you this?

"For christs sake" and your tone is "professional courtesy"? Well, not to my understanding. I you expect me to show "professional courtesy" shouldn't I expect it from you as well? Is this you're showing respecting my point of view?

Anyway, I'm out of this discussion.

saratoga:
It is inappropriate to call people unprofessional because you disagree with the advice they've given you. 

FWIW if you want help, next time I suggest reconsidering your approach to dealing with people.
