Sorry for contacting you directly. I have indeed read these instructions
before I posted my request this morning. But I decided this is not what
I want. I don't want to import something. I just want en empty SVN
repository, the same as for CVS. That's why I asked.
OK, I tried it now but ... I can't figure it out. I don't know if I make
an error or if something on the server doesn't work.
I created a local SVN repository now. It's absolutely empty. I dumped it
and bzipped the file. The result is 200 bytes long. Then I tried to copy
this as described into the download area of the Savannah None-Gnu
server. But it ends up always in an error message. Under Windows I got
"cannot create a regular file" while under Linux the message is always
"permission denied" (yes, this difference is mysterious, I trust the
Linux more). The commands I try are as follows:
scp pdrx-dump.bz2 muelle...@dl.sv.gnu.org:/srv/download/pdrx/
^^^ ?
scp pdrx-dump.bz2
muelle...@dl.sv.gnu.org:/download.savannah.nongnu.org/download/pdrx/
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
scp pdrx-dump.bz2
muelle...@dl.sv.nongnu.org:/download.savannah.nongnu.org/download/pdrx/
^^^^^^ ?
Which line is right? Has the server actually a "pdrx" directory? Can I
write there?
I think my SSH works correctly.
Are there other ways to connect to the server? FTP, SFTP, DAV?
Could you help me with this issue?
