Re: [Flightgear-devel] Enable terrasync/http by default

[Torsten D. <to...@t3...>]

This has probably not been mentioned before: Switching between SVN and HTTP
terrasync is just a matter of setting a property on startup.
Setting --prop:string:/sim/terrasync/http-server=automatic enables the HTTP
repository, not setting the property will lead to using the SVN repository.
The code seems to be robust enough that one may switch back and forth
between the repositories without loosing data.

I believe Erik's comment is right, introducing such a change just before
the release is a bad idea. I'll postpone that to after the release.
That gives us the chance to collect ever more feedback from people using a
stable version and manually enable terrasync/http.

Thanks for the feedback

Torsten
