Sourceforge CVS

[AF]

How do I configure Tortoise CVS to access the spring source?

[colorblind]

For a checkout, fill in the following:

protocol: pserver
server: cvs.sourceforge.net
repository folder: /cvsroot/springrts
user name: anonymous
module: taspring

If you've entered this the CVSROOT should have become :pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/springrts. Click ok and begin downloading ...

Arrgghh CVS wont work for me now, SJ have the permissions on the cvs been changed?

[colorblind]

No, the anonymous CVS permissions are globally set by the SF server, so the SY have nothing to do with it.
Check the recent updates of the SF site. You'll find that the anonymous cvs access has temporarily has been disabled for projects beginning with l, s, f, b, r, k. That includes Spring ....
My guess it will be up again within a day or so.

ghaaarr double post

Anonymous CVS on sourceforge is operational again *quietly updates copy of cvs*

BTW, which source should some pick from if some would like to help ?
I count 4 differents sources :

• source package (0.51b1 right now)

• SourceForge CVS (The official from SY's ?)

• OpenSVN CSIE SVN (The first linux port)

• lolut SVN (The second linux port)

[AF]

If your allid with one of the linux port projects go with them (although I think its better to make the sourceforge version more generic so we can compile on compilers other than MS V C++ 2003).

Sourceforge is the latest upto date code. The SY's maintain it, and its where we get our latest releases from. If you add any new features/fixes add it to there.

It would be nice if the purpose of the linux fork was to be integrated into the official thing. Just be portable, and hide all the non-portable stuff in a plateform layer.

SF CVS is horridly slow

[AF]

It's also the most uptodate so you need it

[snide]

most uptodate

Yup, it doesn't even compile

[AF]
