Hi,

It is a broken external not a repository problem, do the checkout omitting externals and it will work.

That branch is obsolete anyway, the Eclipse stuff is now in the ChibiStudio branch, I will delete that directory.

I am using rsync to keep my private repository aligned with the SF repository, it is very nice because it takes few seconds to update my local copy. The SVN structure makes so that just a file for each revision is copied. I will post the command later, I have it at home.

I use this simple script:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
rsync -av svn.code.sf.net::p/chibios/svn .

Thanks,

I'll give it a go - must be quicker than the TortoiseSVN repository update function

The new owner does not sound too promising. The repository is not a problem but I would hate to lose all the tickets history...

There is a export function on SF, but I don't do much with SF so I don't know just how much it helps.

It looks like it handles Tickets as well. Output is JSON, so you would have to import it somewhere else or write a
conversion program...

Might be something to spend a few minutes looking into if you have not already...

Github still works fine :P

You'd get so many more contributions...

If the tickets could be moved to GH maybe the whole project could move to GH!!! How about that? Also I heard the NSA inserted backdoors into SVN, people should stop using it! LOL

Almost every page on SF now:

The sourceforge.net website is temporarily in static offline mode.
Only a very limited set of project pages are available until the main website returns to service.


This gets better everyday!!!

Giovanni, could you export the list of issues/bugs from SF when it comes back? I would like a copy...
