I think this is the case. Renaming is one of the major benefits of svn in comparison to CVS (along with atomic commits, changesets etc.). There is a cvs2svn script that trasnforms *,v RCS files from a CVS repo to the svn equivalent. > However, this means extra work for Philip Edelbrock (installing > subversion, migrating data, updating webcvs - BTW is there a > subversion equivalent?) Yes, there is mod_dav_svn and viewcvs. Have a look at my test subversion repos at http://devel.atrpms.net/viewcvs/ http://devel.atrpms.net/svn/test1/ http://devel.atrpms.net/svn/test2/ http://devel.atrpms.net/svn/test3/ If anyone wants to test it send me a username/password off-list. I wouldn't mind helping out with the involved infrastructure. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
