When we switched to Subversion, the CVS repository was frozen as of that particular date (i.e. anyone who tries to do a commit to that repository will get a failure). That being said, there are thousands of links into that repository (typically through the viewcvs portal) that would suddenly break if the old repository was physically removed -- that doesn't seem like a user friendly thing to do, so we didn't. > > Anyone have a suggestion of a quick tutorial on subversion? > For general SVN background, start at <http://svnbook.red-bean.com/> and read the walk-through chapters of the book -- it's a pretty good introduction. For those familiar with CVS, there's even a specialized chapter on mapping the "CVS way" to the "SVN way" which I found very helpful. > Jack Craig --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
