Hi Andy,
I just stumbled over some broken links when looking up old patches in
the archive. Specifically, this link https://patches.linaro.org/57380/
was supposed to take me to an older patch I have to revisit, but
I get a 404 error.
Is this expected? Any chance to redirect the old links to a static
archive of the original contents?
It was unanticipated. I had taken a snapshot of the old server's DB on
around Oct. 23, 2015, 2:48 p.m. At that point the new server and old
server stopped producing the same patch ID for patches. So patches after
55493 differ between the servers. I didn't anticipate people bookmarking
stuff.
I've just made a small hack to stop the immediate issues: the new
patchwork server prefixes patch URLs with "patch/<patch id>". So I can
intercept all requests to that. If its <= 55493 its safe for my new
system to display it. If its > 55493, I can assume that's a link that
happened during this transition and redirect to the old patches server.
eg - your link will work how you described now.
That's what we have for now. If this is sufficiently annoying to people,
I can try to re-run a DB migration from the old server to the new one.
