[jira] [Commented] (WHIMSY-107) Consider whether to parameterise SVN URLs

["Shane Curcuru (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIMSY-107?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16062004#comment-16062004 ] 

Shane Curcuru commented on WHIMSY-107:
--------------------------------------

Seeing other recent dev@ threads, it sounds like when we work on this, we should also do a sweep of how any SVN system commands are made in different scripts to see if it's worth making some of the common operations library functions.
It seems like there are still a lot of www/*/* files that do SVN operations directly instead of using some of the ASF::SVN functions - migrating to the library would simplify future debugging and make deployment safer.

> Whimsy currently makes assumptions about the location of certain files and directories in the ASF repositories.
> Firstly, it assumes certain files are in SVN and others are in Git.
> Secondly, the locations within SVN/Git are generally localised to the file that uses them.
> Maybe we need to consider providing wrappers for each set of files based on the function they provide. Or something similar.
