GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 545049
Move to Gnome SVN
Last modified: 2008-08-15 09:52:52 UTC
Please move the code repository away from (uncontrolled) Google code into Gnome SVN, so that the translations can be tracked properly on l10n.gnome.org. It's quite anyway strange to host your bug tracker here, but not your code... (Marking major since Hamster tries to be targeting Gnome, and right now well established Gnome workflows cannot be applied to it.)
i applied for gnome svn repository for hamster quite a while ago, but haven't got any response since then
Did you apply for an account or a repository? Since if you already have an account, creating a new repository is trivial (I can do it for you if you want).
Toms: you've written an email to svnmaster@? what is your ticket number?
Yes, and we are moving now - no worries :)
Looks like I'll be responsible for the move from the Hamster's side. svnmaster should now have all the necessary details. Please note that as I already have a GNOME SVN account (pzawadzki), it could be easier to just create a repo and assign it to me and allow other developers to get their account during or after the migration.
You can just run $ ssh svn.gnome.org new-svn-repos hamster-applet ...and the repository will be created for you. To preserve history you can either get a SVN dump from the Google repository (if that's possible) or try some work-around tricks using e.g. bzr-svn (I can help you with this, let me know).
Oops, forgot to mention: if you can obtain a SVN dump you need to ask one the svn masters (hi Olav) to import it for you.
Would it be possible for one of the svn masters to run svnsync? It requires the revprop privilege (so I doubt I can use it remotely) and the worst that can happen is inconsistent logins (at least I have a different username here and on Google).

hamster has been officially approved for inclusion in GNOME 2.24, see the announcement on devel-announce-list: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/devel-announce-list/2008-August/msg00001.html This is urgent now.
Thanks, Olav! Now we can have hamster-applet in damned-lies!
Wouster: Just requested it.
