svn access

Hi,

I was ok using

svn checkout http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/forrest/trunk forrest

a while back.

I'm ok with snapshots and pasting updates from viewcvs at the moment.

Though could someone point me to the new repos/asf?

Thanks.

Kevin.

That's what it's supposed to do, since the URL doesn't say which repo to
use.

The SVN 'repos' "directory" is not listed, even though it exists and
works (assuming you provide a repo name too).

The 'repository' directory is unrelated to SVN repositories, despite the
similar name.

That URL is for the the ASF repository, which is the main one the Apache
Software Fdtn uses.  No alias or redirect.

Sorry, maybe it's my old svn client, I'll check the error again.

What made me think it had gone away was I tried

http://svn.apache.org/repos/

and got 404, I tried

http://svn.apache.org/

and saw a 'repository' directory but with no 'forrest' sub-dir

I should have tested with

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/

I guess repos/asf is an Apache config alias or some redirect?

There is no new repos. That is still the correct URL. What makes you 
think it has gone away?
