I personally have had no success doing this, but the last time I tried was with a fairly old version of svn. BTW, it looks like you just pulled in python/dist right? Did you pull in the trunk? What about nondist, or as Greg mentioned, distutils which is a sibling of the top-level python directory. > - It has imported the CVSROOT directory as well.

Even the diff checkin messages are generated with a much simpler script (owing largely to svn being designed to make this kind of thing possible without disgusting hacks). > Anyway, this repository is now online for anonymous read-only > access.

I've heard that SF may be offering svn as early as May or June and I would love to see us convert when that's available. -Barry
