This is old news; forget bitbucket; google code for mercurial...

This is very annoying > to me. just reality: the other way is problematic in other ways. git, hg, cvs/rcs: only version files (and their paths; not directories) bzr, svn version directories Versioning directoreis helps with rollout (since you can version tools and links too). BUT git is used for major, major projects with not problems (as is bzr - so it's really just a concept to adapt to). Just add a README.txt in needed empty directories - it can say "This directory is needed, and is distributed empty." -- DONE! Actually, even if directories are versioned, this is a helpful, useful kind of README to have regardless. - Yarko > > Massimo > > On Dec 3, 4:27 pm, Thadeus Burgess <thade...@thadeusb.com> wrote: > > > > > Massimo, do you use SVN or BZR as your main repository? > > > (i still say we convert to mercurial) > > > -Thadeus > > > On Thu, Dec 3, 2009 at 4:26 PM, Yarko Tymciurak <resultsinsoftw...@gmail.com > > > > wrote: > > > On Dec 3, 2:27 pm, Fred <fre...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > On Dec 1, 8:51 pm, mdipierro <mdipie...@cs.depaul.edu> wrote: > > > > > > People are supposed to use the stable distribution (not svn or bzr). > > > > > I wish there was some way to pull stable distributions from the SVN > > > > repository.
