Hi all,
I finally have moved the components you asked me to move in the SVN
repository. They won't be accessible anymore using CVS.
More info about how to setup wxCode SVN (and maybe merge it with CVS) at:
http://wxcode.sourceforge.net/maintguide.php
I've tested the repository and it works well... unfortunately there's a
problem.
When I reached the point to convert the CVS access list to SVN, I've had
a bad surprise. SF clearly says that
"No means is provided to limit access to a repository on a per-path basis."
I've then searched the web and found that this is a SVN limitation. This
is the bad news: all components on SVN repo can be modified by any
maintainer with SVN access. Thus we can
1) step back, resurrect the components in the CVS and remove SVN
2) keep it as is with everyone being careful not to commit
modifications/whatever in other's components.
Obviously (after the work of conversion!) I vote for #2.
I'm writing about this problem on this list so that everyone knows it
and can try to do his best to avoid problems to others.
The partially good news is that in SVN roadmap there is a
repository-level ACLs entry. Thus in future (maybe years however) we
could have that feature back again...
I'm sorry - I should have checked this point earlier...
Francesco
