I am. I'm quite sure the SF website said that there would remain anonymous access... can you make sure that you indeed use anynomous access, instead of developer access? > >Q: Do you know whether or not the entire history of the repository was > >moved over to subversion? > > Yes, it has been moved to subversion (I see it in Eclipse) at least > partially: I tried to view the history of build.xml and I only got about 25 > versions. 2 mins later: it's only a setting that limits the history. > Setting it to a high number gives the full history. Yes, the full history is taken over... including tags and branches. Those latter two are in subdirs on the same level as trunk/. > >Q: If so, do you know how tags got converted? > > In https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/jmol/tags, I can see the tags in > Eclipse, so they are converted also.

Tags and branches in SVN do not work in the same way. In CVS is it not possible to indicate a state of the repository, because versioning is done on a file level. In CVS, a tag would correspond to a version. E.g. the current version in SVN is: r4605, though only two files changed when going from 4605 to 4605. Now, branching in SVN is equal to a copy into another directory. Tags is similar, but, IMHO, really redundant. And trunk/ is the default branch, aka HEAD in CVS. If this is not clear enough, please google around a bit; I'm no expert either :) Egon -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] PhD student on Molecular Representation in Chemometrics Radboud University Nijmegen Blog: http://chem-bla-ics.blogspot.com/ http://www.cac.science.ru.nl/people/egonw/ GPG: 1024D/D6336BA6 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
