This is a technical no-go (at least a hell) to realize. So, forget about a (realtime) synchronized cvs<->svn portage tree and alike. > We have to do that anyway until cvs is phased out. the sooner the better ^o^ > If you can think of a full battle plan for migrating everything at once > that even includes tools etc, I'll be among the first to help getting it > implemented. Well, a full battle won't go that easy, however: We're already working on a subversion migration into official gentoo. So, please be patient. We've been talking about this off-list for a long time now - not just talking but also doing test conversions, script fixing and alike. We also had a little meeting right yesterday about an open issues list I figured out. So, sooner or shorter, we're announcing here some news on this subject (oops, did I already by this?, so, I can say, we're offering already existing svn repositories to be merged into the gentoo svn repository, and we're offering already existing sub-projects' CVS directories to be converted on-demand. so, as soon as we're about to announce this service, just drop us a note. ka0ttic, you maybe overran me with your mail :-) So far, Christian Parpart. -- Netiquette: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1855.txt 19:33:55 up 18 days, 8:40, 0 users, load average: 0.63, 0.55, 0.54
