Solve Jenkins and Subversion time sync issue

You will notice below warning when your Jenkins server and Subversion server have different times (not in a time sync status)

WARNING: clock of the subversion server appears to be out of sync. This can result in inconsistent check out behavior.

There are two ways to sync Jenkins server with svn.

1. Based on Jenkins time and svn time
2. Based on Jenkins revision number and snv revision number

Before build projects Jenkins takes updates from svn. If times are not synced changes will not reflect properly. To solve this issue you can configure Jenkins to take updates based on head revision. Fix is simple.

You just have to add @HEAD to the end of your svn url.

for example:

If your previous svn url is 'http://your.svn.server/svnroot/your/code/location'

add @HEAD to the end of url.

New url is 'http://your.svn.server/svnroot/your/code/location@HEAD'

This will solve Jenkins and svn out of sync issues.

Cheers..!!
