Hello Ed, and the Apollo Community, GMOD is planning on moving from CVS to SVN on September 15. See below for details.
All GMOD projects will be moved, but after the move we are planning on deleting bop and jalview from Subversion's default view. I believe they are both now inside the Apollo project. Please let Rob and I know if we should not do that. Also, do you have any insight on whether or not org.bdgp (or any other project) can also be removed? Thanks, Dave C. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Dave Clements, GMOD Help Desk <[email protected]> Date: Mon, Aug 24, 2009 at 4:15 PM Subject: CVS to SVN Conversion, 2009/09/15 To: GMOD Announce <[email protected]>, GMOD Developers <[email protected]> Cc: Robert Buels <[email protected]> Hello all, Rob Buels of Cornell / SGN has offered to upgrade GMOD's source code repositories to use Subversion (SVN) instead of CVS. After a two month discussion on the GMOD Developers list (see http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.science.biology.gmod.devel/364), this update has been scheduled for September 15, 2009. If you are NOT a GMOD developer then this will, at most, change how you get pre-release copies of GMOD components. In the future you will do SVN checkouts instead of CVS checkouts. The doc on the web site will be updated to describe how to do this. If you ARE a GMOD developer and your project is in GMOD's CVS repository then please read the rest of this email carefully. A complete list of projects in GMOD CVS is at http://gmod.cvs.sourceforge.net/gmod/. Over the next two weeks we will contact project developers to confirm what projects are still active. All projects will be moved to SVN, but any projects that are no longer active will then be deleted. A backup copy will exist in SVN, but users, by default, will no longer see the deleted projects. This should clean things up considerably. All projects will remain in CVS as a read only archive. We have tentatively identified these projects as NO LONGER ACTIVE: bop citrina gds gmod gmod-home goet graphbrowse imdb jalview javaSean labdoc org.bdgp pubfetch pubtrack sample_dbs There may be additional inactive projects as well. Again, we will contact project developers before deleting any projects from SVN. Rob has created a preview version of the repository at http://bugs.sgn.cornell.edu/trac/gmod_test_svn/browser/. Feel free to poke around. This version does not have any projects removed from it. Rob will move the projects on September 15. Before then everyone with uncommitted code changes should commit them to CVS. After September 15, all CVS checkouts you have should be removed and new checkouts made with SVN. We'll provide doc on how to do this. We will send out exact details on the move a few days before it happens. Please let Rob and I know if you have any questions. Again, we'll send out a reminder and additional info a few days before the conversion. Thanks, Dave Clements and Rob Buels -- * Please keep responses on the list! * Was this helpful?
