(Sorry for the C-n-P, my regular email is down till sunday afternoon. Hopefully notes won't screw this email up too badly)
>Has any thought been put into helping the 200+ people with write >access migrate? Of course There is a basic how to guide for CVS users on the wiki, at http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/SvnHelp It has been there since February, and the repository it references for the same amount of time. Once the new test repo is ready (As i've mentioned before, the apple branches take a while to convert, it looks like another 5 hours is still left), i will update it with the gcc.gnu.org location. You'll also note that for those wanting to test anonymous rsync, rsync gcc.gnu.org:: now shows a gcc-svn to rsync from. (You can start now if you want, i've been rsync'ing it from my machine as it converts. Obviously, until it's completely finished, the repo you get won't be complete, but you won't need to retransfer anything that you rsync now, since all the existing revisions are immutable) > I.e. a quick how-to guide for simple cvs actions and >their corresponding svn commands posted on the website? Hmm, I guess >we would need to update these pages to the svn equivalents which would >pretty much cover the basics of a how-to guide: >http://gcc.gnu.org/cvs.html >http://gcc.gnu.org/cvswrite.html I plan on updating these pages, using the current text on the wiki (It was written by a combination of Giovanni and I), as far as the edit history shows. >Also, we have a bunch of mirrors sites. Are these updated through >cvs? If so, what are we doing about that? We have one mirror site who mirrors our CVS. That was one of the people i copied on the last status email. > Thanks, > --Kaveh
