Hi: First of all apology to those friends who follow all the list.
Often times I work offline and I do not have any commit rights to any of the projects. All the modifications I make for various clients and trying to keep up to date with latest trunk somehow makes it difficult for me to just stick with "subversion". I have heard many things about distributed revision control system and I am sure there are tricks/fixes for the subversion problem i mentioned above, but I also wanted to learn something new :-) So after some trial with many DRCS I have decided to go for Bazaar! Its really cool DRCS.. you got try it. http://bazaar-vcs.org/. Now due to the fact that SVN is RCS and bzr is DRCS one need to convert SVN repos to bzr repos. and cool enough.. there is a free vcs mirroring service at Launchpad https://launchpad.net/ So now the following projects are available via bzr branch. You can access them here. Nutch - https://launchpad.net/nutch Solr - https://launchpad.net/solr Lucene - https://launchpad.net/lucene Hadoop - https://launchpad.net/hadoop It only mirrors "trunk". Thats what I need to follow thats why and I don't see any reason to mirror releases. Regards
