Hi, people. As I write this mail, the script migrating our old CVS repository to Subversion is running. I expect the Subversion repository to be ready in some hours (or tomorrow in the morning if it's too late). *Please*, don't commit anything to the Subversion repository until I tell in this mailing list you can do it.
You can read at [0] how to do a check out of the SVN repository. The new SVN repository has three main dirs, named trunk/ , branches/ and tags/ . trunk/ will always contain the latest wesnoth version (similar to "CVS HEAD"), branches/ will contain development branches, and tags/ contain "read-only" snapshots of released versions. As soon as the repository is migrated, I'll create a branch (named 1.0) in branches/ and I'll bump version in trunk to "1.1-svn". trunk/ will be open again for new features, strings and whatever, while branches/1.0/ will contain the code that will be Wesnoth 1.0. Please, if you fix a bug in branches/1.0/ be sure to commit it in trunk/ too. To work with the 1.0 branch: svn co svn+ssh://<username>@svn.gna.org/svn/wesnoth/branches/1.0/ wesnoth-1.0 This will create a "wesnoth-1.0" directory (you can name it as you wish) containing the code from the branch, if you commit from there it will go to the branch. To work with trunk: svn co svn+ssh://<username>@svn.gna.org/svn/wesnoth/trunk/ wesnoth Subversion works quite similar to CVS, and for normal use you only need to know about a few commands (checkout (co), update(up), commit(ci), blame/annotate, ...). You have a really nice Subversion book at [1]. It includes a "Subversion for CVS users" appendix [2]. Feel free to ask here if you have problems anyway. There are several frontends for Subversion (just in case you're using a frontend to use CVS now) you can find a list at [3]. For Windows, I've heard nice comments about TortoiseSVN [4], SvnX [5] looks like a nice MacOS X frontend [6] and eSVN [7] works in Linux, Windows and Mac. As I've said before, this is *not* ready yet, you have to wait a bit more :) Best regards [0] https://gna.org/svn/?group=wesnoth [1] http://svnbook.org [2] http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/apa.html [2] http://subversion.tigris.org/project_links.html [3] http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ [4] http://www.lachoseinteractive.net/en/community/subversion/svnx/ [5] http://esvn.umputun.com/ -- Isaac Clerencia at Warp Networks, http://www.warp.es Work: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | Debian: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
