[Twisted-Python] Carnivore Warning: This message contains subversive content.

We're probably going to be switching the Twisted code repository to Subversion during the PyCon sprints (some time between saturday and tuesday). There will be a short period during conversion when neither CVS nor SVN will be accessible. I'm going to disable the CVS repository so nobody can commit while I'm converting it, run cvs2svn on it, and create a new repository at /svn/Twisted. I might not convert tags and branches from the CVS repo to their SVN counterparts; last time I tried with a test-run it seemed to either take an incredibly long time or it was stuck, and I cancelled it. However, that's not too big of a deal; the old CVS repository will still be accessible read-only, so people will still be able to check out old tags and branches. Of course all old *revisions* will be converted to the SVN repository. After this I'll be working on updating our release scripts and all info that references the CVS server. The SVN repository will be accessible from the web (and, in fact, our other SVN projects are already accessible) at http://cvs.twistedmatrix.com/cvs/. People with write access will use the SVN URL svn+ssh://user@cvs.twistedmatrix.com/svn/Twisted. The twisted-commits list will continue working. I still need to figure out what to do about IRC notification of commits. I might set up a CIA[1] server, or just use their central server. I wrote SVN support for buildbot a while ago, so I'll get it set up so our SVN commits trigger our buildbot[2].

Is there a subversion equivalent for CVS-Toys? :)
Well, Subversion itself comes with an email script (or two), and the CIA thing which I mentioned in the last message offers all the features of CVSToys, afaict. -- Twisted | Christopher Armstrong: International Man of Twistery Radix | Release Manager, Twisted Project ---------+ http://radix.twistedmatrix.com/

cvs2svn has improved a lot lately, so you might want to try again with the latest. (Which is now a separate project at http://cvs2svn.tigris.org) -- David Ripton dripton@ripton.net

WARNING! Doing "cvs co svn+ssh://user@cvs.twistedmatrix.com/svn/Twisted" is *not* a good idea. It will download every single tagged or branched revision of every single file in the repository. By the time I got around to cancelling it, it had filled 2.0G of my disk space. Use "svn co svn+ssh://cvs.twistedmatrix.com/svn/Twisted/trunk Twisted" instead. Incidentally, there's an issue tracking the migration progress: http://www.twistedmatrix.com/users/roundup.twistd/twisted/issue558 -Andrew.

Sorry :\
Use "svn co svn+ssh://cvs.twistedmatrix.com/svn/Twisted/trunk Twisted" instead.

Thanks for notifying people, Andrew ;-) I'll be making the Buildbot work again tomorrow, and then getting IRC notification working, probably via CIA. -- Twisted | Christopher Armstrong: International Man of Twistery Radix | Release Manager, Twisted Project ---------+ http://radix.twistedmatrix.com/

Didn't I mention this? Oh well, all information is available at (pardon the misnomer of an URL): http://twistedmatrix.com/developers/cvs -- Twisted | Christopher Armstrong: International Man of Twistery Radix | Release Manager, Twisted Project ---------+ http://radix.twistedmatrix.com/

Nope, but you can use anonymous Subversion. (Or rather, yes, but only for old versions, not the new ones, and the repository was renamed from Twisted to Twisted.USE_SVN_NOT_CVS or something). -- Itamar Shtull-Trauring http://itamarst.org Looking for a job: http://itamarst.org/resume.html

What I had needed was anon cvs to the old versions, because I still had some patched files and wanted to generate diffs. However, I have now manually recovered those patches. But maybe someone else might still have the same problem. - Ralf -- brainbot technologies ag boppstrasse 64 . 55118 mainz . germany fon +49 6131 211639-1 . fax +49 6131 211639-2 http://brainbot.com/ mailto:ralf@brainbot.com
