We have chosen to move the SVN to SourceForge.

Here's how to use svn switch --relocate to update your working copy:

Step 1

Make sure your working copy is BEFORE revision 15000 (this is when we forked our SVN).

If your working copy is past r15000, you can update back to r15000 like this:

- Linux: svn up -r 15000 <path_to_working_copy>

- Windows: right-click folder, TortoiseSVN -> Update to revision, and type in 15000

Step 2

Linux:

svn switch --relocate http://eathena-project.googlecode.com/svn https://rathena.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rathena <path_to_working_copy>

Windows (TortoiseSVN):

  1. right-click your eAthena folder --> TortoiseSVN --> Relocate

  2. in the "To URL" box, enter the new SVN url:
    https://rathena.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rathena

  3. click OK

To those of you who provide mirrors of the eAthena SVN, please update your repository so it syncs to the new url:

svn propset --revprop -r 0 svn:sync-from-url https://rathena.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rathena <url_to_repos>

Can I ask the advantages to have this SVN in sourceforge instead of google code?

Just asking, I'm curious.

Just asking, I'm curious.

Here are some other advantages to add:

  • + SourceForge allows project admins command-line access to their SVN Repo through SSH
    (useful for using 'svnadmin', import/export and other tools)
  • - GoogleCode only has a "Reset Repository" button and they allow a pre-revprop-change hook for 'svnsync', but they have no way for you to set the repository's UUID (a must for us, so users can easily relocate from the old eAthena SVN)
  • - on GoogleCode if you do a SVN Blame on a file all the way from revision 1, it usually times out. This has never happened to me on SF-hosted SVNs. I think it's because of some change Google did to their Subversion server to optimize resource usage.

Thanks now I understand why. Yeah you have by far, a lot of valid reasons to move it.

I am using eathena atm, is it possible that I can change it from eathena to rathena without changing my src?

And even then there are a couple of changes within the sql and db table concerning items or such it would most likely not be compatible.
