[Exodus-dev] Source control switched to subversion

[Peter Millard]

I've been hating CVS for a long time, and finally have switched all of the
exodus source code into a subversion repository. For those that are getting
stuff from CVS, please stop :)

To access stuff via subversion, install subversion :) You can find the latest
stuff at:
http://subversion.tigris.org

Once you have subversion installed, you can checkout the source code via:

svn co svn://jabberstudio.org/exodus/svn/trunk exodus

That should place an exodus directory with the latest branch of code in it.
Directory layouts should be identical as it used to be.

For translators who had CVS accounts, you'll need to use a command like:

svn co svn+ssh://***@jabberstudio.org/var/projects/exodus/svn/trunk exodus

This command will authenticate you via SSH, then perform the checkout.

For all users, once you have checked out the source, to update your source, just
do:

svn update

The reason for switching to subversion is to make it easier to work on branches,
and to get better changelist/checkin tracking. Subversion also has better CR/LF
handling for source files which will make building daily source snapshots a lot
easier.

Hi, Peter:

I'm getting this error:

svn: Berkeley DB error while opening environment for filesystem \
/var/projects/exodus/svn/db:
Permission denied

I've setup svn as you said and had to change my locale settings at
jabberstudio.org 'cause it refuses to accept any LC_CTYPE unless "C" or
unset. But then I got this error, any hint?

How about web access to source code? Is the CVS link on Exodus homepage
still OK? Is the link to the latest default.po for translation still OK?

I still need to fixup the web links. *sigh*
Viewcvs works with subversion tho... grab the latest stuff from here:
