Freddie had some interesting input on this, but it seems as if he does not want to share it with the world, so you have one supporter less. :P When switching to a DCVS i would suggest Mercurial, which has at least TortoiseHG (no win64 support yet ;_;) but at least the commandline works. Did someone check Bzr on Windows? Or Monotone? I think it has some Tortoise- style integration thingy, and if not there is Guitone, iirc. If that does not turn to be a satisfying solution either, I'd go with Fred's proposal and host our SVN repos on wz2100.net for now, till GitCo are better supported on the non-free operating systems. --Devu signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. ___ Warzone-dev mailing list Warzone-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/warzone-dev

The last time, when there were weird non-standard directories mixed with standard directories in a standard-layout-git-svn import, it messed up the repos quite nicely. Which was also the reason to refactor the svn history to correct those issues... But of course that could be corrected again. /originals is currently completely ignored by git-svn -- Giel signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Warzone-dev mailing list Warzone-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/warzone-dev

Oh believe me, you're definitely *not* the only one. I'm having plenty Gna! troubles as well. The difference is that I'm not using a GUI client, but the command line client that can be scripted in a bash while-loop quite easily. 2) Use sf.net. All the projects that I pulled source from them, seemed to work fine. I really don't like sourceforge and their throw-it-full-with-banners approach at all. 6) Some other subversion hosting service with offsite backups (please name your preferred alternative). I have no idea of the + or - of these, I just did some searching. GoogleCode? http://code.google.com/ gforge? http://gforge.org/ alioth ? http://alioth.debian.org/ savannah ? http://savannah.gnu.org/ What about using multiple sites? I just wonder how to mirror all the changes on one host with the other? Savannah is only for GNU projects (which we're not). As for GoogleCode and GForge, I haven't got much experience with those. Alioth might be a good option though, never had any problems with that. -- Giel signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Warzone-dev mailing list Warzone-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/warzone-dev

Hmm. I saw msysGit. Too bad it can't compare to TortoiseSVN, so I rather not, unless there is a svn backend(?) I can use as well. 4) Use bazaar and launchpad. Well, I saw TortoiseBZR. No idea on how stable this is. 5) Use mercurial and whatever hosting service (assuming it has the same 'no backup needed' architecture as git). Ditto with this. TortoiseHg.
