No need to keep it around as garbageok, thanks! :p I've enabled SVN, but now the repo is empty, I don't want to migrate CVS YET... if we migrate to SVN, we'll need to do some things.. first, there is no 'gateway'/bridge between cvs and svn, which means that a commit onsvn won't appear on cvs... which means that if we switch to SVN it will bea FULL SWITCH, there will be NO MORE CVS AT ALL!!!!wow, I began writing this email 5 hours ago, went to sleep, woke up, wrotea bit, did some IRC support, and now I'm back, so let me get back all my ideas...oh yeah, so we'll need to completly shut down CVS, you understand that? sowe first need, before making any decision, to see what changes it will involve...first : once the migration request is sent to SF, we might wait 24h before the migration process is unqueued and done, which means no commits duringthat time... second : disabling CVS will only remove the 'CVS' webpage from our SFsite, but all CVS accesses will remain, which means our users who are usedto use (lol) cvs will still get the 'latest' cvs which is not the latest svn...we'll probably need to close CVS, something like delete all files (after a successfull migration) and put a single CVS_CLOSED.README file explainingsituation and giving link to svn instructions...on sf.net's site.
yes, that's what I kind of said, different is that we can't remove the repository!! SF does not allow us to close a repo, so we'll have to delete all the files from the repo.. and in that case, why wait a month, we could just do it from the begining, and.. well, that's what I said before... we could keep a 'amsn' script that prints that to screen indeed... instead of a readme...
we'll need to update our language, we'll begin saying "do you use 0.95 orWhy not just use "devel" instead of svn or cvs? This would get rid of any suchsvn?" and be ready for hundreds of support question similar to "what svn??? I'm using the cvs version" or "svn? is it the codename for next release?:D" etc...we'll need to update the scripts for the cvs snapshot, which will become a svn snapshot, links to amsn_cvs.tar.gz will become amsn_svn.tar.gz, updatethe FAQ...problems in the future and makes more sence.
sounds good! I don't really like 'devel' as it reminds me of evil.. devel (6).. so n00bs would probably also not understand.. if we can find something similar, I'd say ok, if not, I'd say ok for devel.
yeah, that's the idea I had, but I don't know how we could do it (looking in .svn, but where to look)... I'm also sure the revision is local, not on serverside, so we just need to find which files change on an update to 1 revision up, that will narrow our search... or ask in some svn forum, no ?we'll have to update CIA, see how we can ustomize the scripts for sendingSVN does file versioning by repisitory, not file. So when you commit a change, it increments the "revision number" of the whole thing. I suppose we couldemails to commit ML... for now we can have a mail sent on commit, but I don't think we can modify the script to suit our purpose (like ignoring the cvsdate commit)... maybe cvsdate will need to be removed, because I hate the way it's done and maybe svn will provide us with a solution by itself...use this. I'm not sure how to get this easly through command line though,without using the svn command. Maybe someone more familiar with this couldcomment?
anything else related to cvs will need to be updated, which means a lot ofI'll be happy to help, but I have AP exams comming up in a month, so I will be studying for those. If after May 10th something still needs to be done, I'llwork involved, it's not a single click process... now, what do you think and who wants to do it all (or help) ?lend my hand.
we'll see, problem is that I don't feel like doing it, and I don't know about other people.. if someone is willing to divide the work, I'll do my part, but apart from that, I don't feel like doing it... i hope others will be more motivated! :)
