SourceForge as a SVN mirror

(1/3) > >>

Hi!

Given the downtimes BerliOS has been experiencing lately, could SF become a SVN mirror?

The good news:
The SourceForge.net team is pleased to announce the General Availability
of Subversion service to SourceForge.net-hosted projects, effective
2006-02-21.

The Subversion service includes:

SSL-based Repository Access:
* Developer Subversion access via HTTPS, auth is requested when you
perform a write operation
* Anonymous Subversion access via HTTPS
* No sync delays between developer and anonymous Subversion access
* Per-developer access control over repository access (ACL support to be
added in the future) via the SourceForge.net permissions system

Web-based viewing:
* Web-based repository access via ViewVC (formerly known as ViewCVS)

On-demand self-service backups and mirroring capability:
* Read-only rsync access to the repository to permit backups and
remote mirroring

Ease of migration:
* Automated self-service migration of your SourceForge.net project CVS
repository, CVS tarball, or Subversion dump to our Subversion service

Well-considered add-ons to basic service:
* A selected set of hook scripts, including commit email support and
CIA bot support
* Statistics tracking of Subversion repository activity

I have not experienced any downtimes, although I use BerliOS 12-16 hours per day, every day.

Lots of blah blah, those are the very same standard options available everywhere.

To get back to your question: We moved away from Sourceforge for a couple of good reasons. Lack of Subversion support was only one of them.
Sourceforge as a SVN mirror is not an option for the same reasons as Sourceforge as CVS mirror is not (or BerliOS as CVS mirror, for that matter).

Conan Kudo:
Then why is the SF project still there? If you are not using it, delete it....

killerbot:
well for the moment there are still some bug reports, feature requests, patches at SF. Even closed ones, that's important histroy of the project. But now it has been made clear to everyone (even on the webpage you are now directed to berlios) the place to be is berlios.

I've experienced them! And downloads are really slowly in these day and neither support resume
(for me, 10kb/s on berlios, 240 kb/s on sf.net).

But that's not a problem, i just need patience... :)
