Now that cvs is up again, I guess everybody is reinventing the wheel in the form of a little one-liner to convert their local CVS repository to the new style.

To save others the time for testing, here is one that worked for me (cut in four to avoid chopping by mailers):

find . -name CVS -type d \
-execdir perl -pi -e \
's|[EMAIL PROTECTED]|[EMAIL PROTECTED]|' CVS/Root \; \
-execdir perl -pi -e 's|/cvsroot/fink/||' CVS/Repository \;

Note that if you only change the Root and don't change the Repository too (a change I haven't seen mentioned in SF's explanations of the new configuration), you will get thousands of "move away *; it is in the way" messages.
[...]

I guess something like this should be mentioned on the home page, too.

FYI, this is what SF.net staff says about this:

<Fingolfin> burley: one guy posted a script to fink-devel for auto- converting the CVS repos to the new server URL, quite handy

<burley> Fingolfin: yeah, I would be hesitant to use those

<burley> Fingolfin: concern is that the data in the new repostiory isn't 'current' with the old repository, there will be a few days in there that aren't covered

<burley> reason is concern for data corruption from the old CVS repository due to the disk issues

<burley> otherwise, we would have made them fully in sync




Cheers,
Max
