Keynote works with SVN...

Well the latest version of Keynote (2.0.2) works well with Subversion. In the 1.x stream on every save it would recreate the directory and delte the old one which would hose Subversion. Now Keynote just replaces the content of the .key directory.

Very nice indeed...

Unfortunately keynote 3.0 blows them away again. You can use the following script to fix them:

svnfix() {
dir=presentation.key
mv $1 "$1-backup"
svn up $1
rsync -arC "$1-backup/" $1/
svn add --force $1
rm -rf $1-backup
}

Usage:
svnfix name-of-my-presentation.key
(note that there's no trailing /)

Thanks for this script.
But if you delete something, e.g. a droppedImage, it still resides within the presentation.
It will no longer used, but it resides in the keynote-Bundle.

Any ideas?

I built a script that just copies the missing .svn directories. You can find it here.
