Do you know about the Viewpoint TSVN Toolkit from ViewPoint Systems (found on the LabVIEW Tools Network, viewable and installable from VIPM), which integrates TSVN commands into the LabVIEW environment?

I generally prefer to do my TSVN Commits and Updates myself, "by hand" (and, unless I'm careless, when I am not in the LabVIEW environment, so I'm certain to get the entire Project handled at the same time).  Having said that, I have made a tool that updates the Build part of the Version Number of a Project's Application Build Spec.  In fact, I think you can find the code by looking in the Idea Exchange for an Idea I posted (that was declined, I'm sorry to say) asking that the Pre-Build Action (which I was using to set the Build part of the Version Number) be done before (i.e "pre-") the Build Action.  [Turns out that the Version specification is Cached first, the Pre-Build Action applied next, then the Cached Version used during the Build, so you have to "Build Twice" to get the correct Version Spec].  You can Read All About It here .

I think what you're running into is a problem with the parsing of your command string.

I'd start by checking the standard error output, and then take a look at the output of "cmd /?" in a command prompt. In particular, you should read about the "/c" and "/s" flags.

You may have better luck if you modify your string to be something like the following:

cmd /s /c "svn add "C:\Quoting allows spaces in names\myfile.html"" 

(note that I used /s to allow nested quotes in this manner. Your directory has no spaces, so you could probably avoid that).

I'd also query why you have a line break between "svn add" and the file path? I'm not familiar with SVN, but the documentation appears to indicate a similar pattern to git, which would require that your paths be on the same logical line as the command (because they are arguments to the command).

The line break is definitely bogus. While it may work for whatever rare reason, it is definitely not how command line parameters are normally appended to a command line string, and the svn command line client never required me to do that.

Your Add command has a Return before the file ...

When you want to send multiple lines through CMD i'd recommend a loop which sends each line or merge them into a batch file and run that.
