Re: [Xastir] CVS - SVN

OK. I'm confused. The server is refusing connections. I thought I read here 
that CVS was dieing and we should shift to SVN. Perhaps I'm getting lists 
confused. Whatever. How do we do updates since CVS isn't responding?

 And no reason for one yet.  You can't do multiple types with one code 
 repository.  In other words, we're still using CVS, and only CVS, until they 
 force a change to SVN on us or we request it.

You don't.  SourceForge was hacked, give them time to recover.  They said they 
may require all CVS projects to convert to SVN.  They haven't converted us yet 
as far as I know.  CVS is down, perhaps permanently.

An excerpt from:  http://sourceforge.net/blog/sourceforge-attack-full-report/

CVS

CVS service is one of SourceForge.net’s oldest services and, due to limitations 
in CVS itself, cannot readily live on our scalable network storage solution. 
Validation of this data is going to require several days and we anticipate that 
this service will be restored sometime in the later part of week.

We are also considering the end-of-life of the CVS service and hope to have 
user support in migrating CVS users to Subversion in coming months. Subversion 
generally provides parity to CVS commands, and many of our users have made this 
transition successfully in the past.


From SVN, projects can move to Git if desired.
