--dDRMvlgZJXvWKvBx Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable It is now over four years since we migrated src to a Subversion repository but we've kept exporting current work to CVS and making the src tree available around the globe via the CVSup mirrors. The ports tree is migrating to Subversion today with, I understand, plans to export future updates to CVS as well. The doc tree was migrated to a Subversion repository a couple of months ago but is not being exported to CVS, so the doc and www source trees still being distributed via the CVSup mirrors are stale. Is it time to do something about mirroring the Subversion repositories? Yesterday I set up unofficial mirrors of the src and doc Subversion repositories on the machine which hosts the Australian CVSup mirror: I plan to do the same with the ports repository once it is in production. Is it appropriate to make any Subversion mirrors official and allocate 'svn' domain names, or are Subversion mirrors something the FreeBSD Project "doesn't do"? I would just go ahead and ask the .au hostmaster to create an svn domain name for the server but I don't want to do the wrong thing. These unofficial mirror repositories are being updated hourly via svnsync from svn.freebsd.org. src --> svn://cvsup.au.freebsd.org/base doc --> svn://cvsup.au.freebsd.org/doc --=20 John Marshall --dDRMvlgZJXvWKvBx Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAlABI4AACgkQw/tAaKKahKK9xACaA2SRVMltv95FUaUKSw/iXebM 8CoAoJlJpDKi3jahk7s3zvn4hsvPiMQ3 =SPGg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --dDRMvlgZJXvWKvBx--
