I have used the command say "system("svn checkout $svnPath $targetPath"); can you please point me out how can i get the error message thrown by svn? I tried printing it using $!, Which shows me the error message as "No such file or directory". Since the source svn path is wrong, it should give me the error message like "svn: Can't connect to host '192.168.2.5': A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond." Can anyone help me on this to extract the above svn error message using the perl?
