We [KDE] went through this and now host the largest SVN repository. We did track server-side moves, at least to an extent, and it took a LONG time to sort it out. We do have lots of tools and scripts now, and some of them might be helpful or insightful. I can help get the right people in touch if there is motivation. -- George Staikos KDE Developer http://www.kde.org/ Staikos Computing Services Inc. http://www.staikos.net/ _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.opendarwin.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-dev
