Publishing Flex applications to Google Code SVN repository

By | August 16

I’ve been struggling with this one a couple of times, so I thought I should share how I solved it.

Problem:
You are hosting or contributing to an open-source project on using SVN as source control.
You would like share Flex applications (and View Source) by accessing their public SVN URL.
Applications pages (HTML) show raw text.

Solution:
Make sure you set the SVN property svn:mime-type for each file:

  • *.html: “text/html”
  • *.css: “text/css”
  • *.zip, *.swf, *.png: “application/octet-stream”
