Hi there, A while ago I wrote to the list regarding the removal of svn:externals from the client source directory in Subversion. Now I would like to point at a few remaining external references in the repository.
The 'stable', 'next', and 'latest' folders in the root were set up as links to other parts of the repository. In my opinion this is confusing and has outlived its usefulness, and should be removed. The 'next' branch currently points to 1.12.0, and is not documented on the wiki. 1.12.0 is ancient and only in active use on Metalforge. The name is misleading. The 'stable' branch currently points to 1.70.0, which makes sense. Keeping this seems logical. This makes updating a server checked out from the branch easy, although its usefulness still seems limited. The 'latest' branch contains a single pointer to gridarta, which probably deserves its own top-level external reference. According to the wiki, it's supposed to point to the trunk directories, but those paths never change so there it's only there for convenience. I'd like to know whether or not there are still people using these links. If not, I'd like to get rid of them. Thanks, Kevin Zheng _______________________________________________ crossfire mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.metalforge.org/mailman/listinfo/crossfire
