By the way, wouldn't it be more readable to write the loop as
Code:
while [[ "`cat svn.txt`" -eq "$pname" ]]
do
...
done

well it gave me the same error. I will post my script, not because I want you to solve it for me but because I already trying this since last week and as a new guy where I need a lot of help
__________________________________________
Code:

#!/bin/sh

user=`whoami`
pname="svn `whoami`"
var=0

LOGFILE=`mktemp -t svn_checkout.XXXXXX`
ICONPATH="`dirname $0`/svn.xpm"
list=`ssh $user@192.168.1.3 "ls /esp-server/svn"`
URL=`zenity --entry --title="Subversion: Checkout" --text="$list

Enter repository folder according to the the aboves:" --entry-text="" --width=400 --window-icon="$ICONPATH" 2>&1`

#So until where is everything ok and my script work as I want. The problem was when #I wanted to add a progress bar to my script

if [ $? -eq 0 ]
then
  svn checkout svn+ssh://$user@192.168.1.3/esp-server/svn/$URL &> $LOGFILE & pid1=$!
  zenity --progress --pulsate --auto-kill & pid2=$!
  
  while [ $var -lt 1 ]
  do
    ps aux | awk '{ print $11 " " $1 }' | grep svn > svn.txt    
    
#until where is also ok

    infile=`cat svn.txt`
    echo $infile
    until [[ "`cat svn.txt`" -eq "$pname" ]]
    do
#then when it enters where I'm not sure if it works. Like, I know it goes inside the until #because the echo in the next lines are "echoed", but the until never stops and thats #very confusing because my condition is until "`cat svn.txt`" -eq "$pname" and after the svn command is done, the svn.txt is empty and so 
#[["`cat svn.txt`" -eq "$pname" ]] is true and so should go out from the until
    echo $infile
    echo $pname
    
    ps aux | awk '{ print $11 " " $1 }' | grep svn > svn.txt ;
    
    
    done

    $var=2   #this is for exit the while 
    kill $pid2 # and this to kill the progress bar
    
      
    
  done
  rm -f svn.txt
  rm -f $LOGFILE

fi

and by the way, my verbose says error line 44 which is the last if. why


Please help
thanks in advance

LEARN ABOUT DEBIAN

svn-inject

SVN-INJECT(1)							 Command reference						     SVN-INJECT(1)

NAME

       svn-inject - puts a Debian source package into Subversion repository

SYNOPSIS

       svn-inject [options]
							     package.dsc
							     repository_URL

OPTIONS

       svn-inject accepts the following options on the command-line:

       -h
	   print the help menu

       -v
	   Make the command output verbose

	   Default: Off.

       -q
	   Hide less important messages

	   Default: Off.

       -l
	   Layout type. 1 (default) means package/{trunk,tags,branches,...} scheme, 2 means the {trunk,tags,branches,...}/package scheme.

	   Default: 1

       -t directory
	   Specify the directory where the .orig.tar.gz files are stored on the local machine.

	   Default: Off.

       -d | --do-like=directory
	   Looks at the working directory of some other package and uses its base URL, tarball storage directory and similar checkout target
	   directory.

	   Default: Off.

       -c number
	   Checkout nothing (0), trunk directory (1) or everything (2) when the work is done.

	   Default: 1

       -o
	   Only keep modified files under SVN control (including the debian/ directory), track only parts of upstream branch

	   Default: Off.

       -O | --no-branches
	   Do not create the branches subdirectory at all. This works in a similar way to -o but all changes on upstream files (e.g. meta changes
	   like updating the config.guess and config.sub files) are ignored and the upstream branch is not used.

	   Default: use branches/.

       -s
	   By default, svn-inject used to create .svn/deb-layout after an inject operation if a checkout followed the inject. Since version 0.6.22
	   this behaviour is deprecated.

	   With this parameter svn-inject will replicate the old behaviour.

	   This option was provided since it can be useful when creating a local override file.

	   Default: Off.

       -setprops -set-props
	   Set svn-bp:* props on the debian directory automatically.

	   Default: Off.
