Subversion migration
Just wondering if the Cactus community have any thoughts on a
migration to Subversion?
I'm aiming to get Jakarta migrated over to Subversion this quarter and
this email is intended to nudge the start of the Cactus migration. The process
seems pretty easy, though I'm not finished on my first one (jakarta-regexp):
http://www.apache.org/dev/cvs2svn.html
Alternatively, I'm looking to hear the problems with the idea of a
migration to SVN so I can get the Infrastructure guys to deal with
them.
Thanks,
Hen

+1 from me too, although I would not have the time to help :-(
BTW, subversion can handle moving/renaming files, so that will help to
keep the history when we do the Cargo refactoring.

This is fine. I'll hold a vote for migrating to SVN.

Pinging this back onto your todo list.
2 is the big one. The easy option is to just:
* move jakarta-cactus HEAD to jakarta/cactus/trunk
* move all jakarta-cactus branches to jakarta/cactus/branches
* move all jakarta-cactus tags to jakarta/cactus/tags
Otherwise it'll take thought etc. Looking at the cactus module, it
looks like you would probably take the easy option and worry about
being clever later on.

The Infrastructure guys take care of all the server-side stuff; it's
very easy from our point of view:
*) Convince community to migrate
*) Decide on structure
*) Send request to Infra (template to do this with)
*) Organise community to test the repo they setup
*) Announce go-ahead
Also things like updating the site etc.

Why not, but I would need some help as I have never touched the server-side
part of SVN (only the client part).

Yep, Apache's on the https/http. Quite a nice setup too.
For osjava; we have the http as anonymous and the https as secure; but
Apache has the https as anonymous too for most modules and it's only
when you commit that you have to enter a username/password.
Nice part here is that a contributor can be checked out; become a
committer and not have to worry about rechecking out.
As you've SVN experience, would you be willing to volunteer to manage
the migration Vincent?

I'm personally all for it. I've tried it on Cargo
(http://cargo.codehaus.org) and I like SVN a lot.
Now it all depends on the other committers. It should not prevent them from
contributing.
+1 from me
Note: The only drawback I can think of is if you use the svn+ssh protocol.
In that case, the existing SVN IDE clients do not perform well (TortoiseSVN
is about the only one to work). But I think apache is using http/https so
that's fine.
