Bash script to perform initial import of a rails project

This is still a work in progress. The objective is to script the entire initial svn hassle that needs to be done with a rails project. The first import, then the first checkout, and then dealing with all the files that need to be ignored. Based heavily on:

http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoUseRailsWithSubversion

In the future I may add capistrano setup and such.

This worked the last time I tried it, but I don't expect it to work the next time.

#!/bin/bash
set -v                         # verbose output

## USAGE: configure the following variables, and execute in your rails root, ie the directory with
## config/ and app/
## NOTE: This script assumes that your directory of your rails root has the same name as both your 
## application, and your svn repo.
##
## This script also assumes that it's ok to make a backup in the parent directory of your
## rails root.

## It designed only for freshly created applications, that haven't really be changed at all from the
## original generation script

app_dir=`pwd`
app_name=`basename $app_dir`
svn_url_to_your_repository=${svn_url}${app_name} # Assumes your repo has the same name as your app
echo $app_name
echo $svn_url_to_your_repository

## Do the initial import
svn import . ${svn_url_to_your_repository}/trunk -m "First Import" --username $username



cd ..                           # Back out a directory from the root

## We're going to make a backup of your app. If one is already there, then remove it.
test -d ./pre_svn_backup_$app_name || rm -rf pre_svn_backup_$app_name
mkdir ../pre_svn_backup_$app_name
mv -f $app_dir ./pre_svn_backup_${app_name} # Move the rails app to the backup dir.

mkdir $app_dir # recreate the application directory
cd $app_dir
svn checkout ${svn_url_to_your_repository}/trunk . # Check out the subversion repo to the app directory

## This section cleans up the svn repo, so that you're not versioning things that shouldn't be versioned.
