Question

So my favourite web tool, Subtlety, was recently discontinued, which means that I no longer have easy access to the commit logs of various SVN projects that I follow. Are there any other tools that easily pump out an RSS feed of commits for a public SVN repo?

Solution

I was going to suggest Trac as well, until I realized you probably don't have administrative control over the repositories in question. Perhaps this apparent solution will work for you?

http://svnfeed.com/

It seems to work well for the one repository I tried it on, and it's surprisingly fast.

OTHER TIPS

SvnFeed

Also check out CommitMonitor for windows, which features really slick diff support

I've just tried sventon with good results. It's a web based SVN viewer, reasonable in what it does, but provides a good RSS feed at whatever level you want to subscribe to.

Atlassian Fisheye ( http://www.atlassian.com/software/fisheye/ ) allows you to get commit notification on email as well as RSS (and as a bonus, you can select which directory/file to subscribe to, and only get notified of those file/dir changes).

Another tool would be http://sourceforge.net/projects/svn2rss/

Try Trac. Besides feeds you can browse the repository and it has a nice Wiki.

I like Trac, though it may be overkill for what you need. WebSVN is also a nice tool for browsing repositories over the web. Both of these provide RSS feeds for the log. You can also subscribe to the log for just a particular branch, etc.

I was using Sublety as well. It was quite a bummer when it went away. I ended up rolling my own solution. It is .NET based and requires the use of the post-commit hook script. It's free, and I've provided both binaries and source code.
