Does anyone have an example of how to configure a server to issue
301/302 redirects for an fspath that had been renamed?
For example we have
<Location /repos/asf>
SVNPath ...
</Location>
And we'd like to do:
# The project was renamed
Redirect /repos/asf/openejb https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomee
but we're hitting various problems:
- The redirect kicks in for historical revisions (prior to the 'svn mv
^/openejb ^/tomee' in r1432805) too, such as:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openejb?p=1400000
- A similar configuration failed to kick in during update/checkout of
working copy checked out from (a pre-rename revision of) ^/openejb:
the initial request got matched and redirected, but a subsequent
request to /repos/asf/!svn/.../openejb failed to match.
Ideally we'd like to issue a 301 redirect for requests to /openejb that
concern r1432805 or later, but leave requests concerning r1432804 or
earlier untouched.
(or maybe what we *really* want is a repos-side symlink... but we're
running 1.7, not 1.9, and we'll appreciate solutions that work within
that limitation :))
