-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Just a quick update on the conversion to Bazaar.
There are a couple of things you can do right now to play with bzr. The Launchpad admins have fixed the urls for the two branches hosted there. To check out the Mailman 2.1 bzr mirror of upstream Release_2_1-maint branch, do the following: cd someplace mkdir mailman-lpnet cd mailman-lpnet bzr init-repo . bzr branch http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~vcs-imports/mailman/2.1 You could also substitute "main" for "2.1" above to get a branch of the svn trunk. My understanding is that the branch mirror on Launchpad updates every 6 hours or so, so the lag between commits to upstream svn and pulling/merging in changes via bzr shouldn't be too bad given the pace of commits. BTW, I like doing the initial branch in a repo above so that subsequent local branches are pretty quick. The initial branch takes me about 8 minutes to pull 972 revisions on a fast US broadband connection. The other option is to use the bzr-svn plugin, but you'll need some pretty cutting edge package versions for that. If you're on Ubuntu feisty, you pretty much have what you need: bzr 0.16, bzr-svn 0.3.2, and the latest svn Python bindings. In that case, try this: cd someplace mkdir mailman-bzr cd mailman-bzr bzr init-repo . bzr branch http://mailman.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/mailman/trunk This takes me about 70 minutes to pull 6826 revisions on the same connection. You'll get more than you really want or need because the bzr-svn plugin can't branch from inside 'trunk'. I haven't tried branching from branches/Release_2_1-maint yet. The nice thing about this is that you've essentially got your own mirror of upstream svn. You can do your own merging/pulling in this repo with no lag. If you had commit privileges on the upstream svn repo, you could do those right in place, without having to go through svn (tho I haven't been brave enough yet to try it ;). Please play with these and let us know what you think. If/when we decide to switch to bzr, we can set the branches up to be more convenient for us. - -Barry -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (Darwin) iQCVAwUBRkHLlXEjvBPtnXfVAQIVfgP/ehYI0rBmWF+a5F2i/Tu0Mh30IRPYNcKe rQ/YYtaJj8aotQtPq22Ec85r9u0bTw1CtiyIqFEWN6RsHbMuH1C6gPCCbL1tuSAb PzbyN98V4glX4HpfJfmeCSNCS+MPX4SQaL6oHzdi2oXUg27BJGa8ynt3R2bcLdgs h3qRlIKALCU= =Rw5e -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list Mailman-Developers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
