Hello everyone,
I have performed a conversion of my newest project, stick2xyz, from CVS
to SVN. It can be accessed anonymously with the following command:
svn co svn://cvs.planetsaphire.com/svnroot/stick2xyz
Unfortunately, I am having problems getting ViewVC to work with
Subversion, so we'll have to look for another project who has scripts
capable of performing the task. Upgrading from subversion 1.1.4 to
1.4.5 is a major move to make, and so, I am unwilling to downgrade back
to 1.1.4 simply because of an unusable web interface.
If anyone knows of a project other than ViewVC that might be helpful,
please let Dimitri and I know.
Dimitri: I am ready to begin converting the doxygen CVS over to
Subversion when you're ready, despite the lack of a web interface for
subversion until an alternative to ViewVC is found. In your home
directory on Planet Saphire is an automatically generated tarball
containing the contents of your project's CVS repository, named
'doxygen-cvs-raw.tar.gz'. The subversion tarball will be called
'doxygen-svn-raw.tar.gz'.
The technical issue behind ViewVC is stated in a bug report with its
developers, although I gave them a different excuse as to why I did not
want to downgrade:
http://viewvc.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=315
The authors of subversion apparently made some sweeping changes to the
subversion python bindings, which is keeping ViewVC from working
properly. When I looked at the ViewVC bug reports, hardly any of them
were tended to, so I doubt that the changes will be made to ViewVC
anytime soon.
