URL for Subversion has changed

Submitted by ckdake on Mon, 2006-12-04 01:34

The Gallery source code repository hosted in Subversion at SourceForge has moved to a new url which should be more stable. The old URL will continue to work for some time, but if you're using Gallery from Subversion we recommend you switch to the new URL for better stability. If you don't know what Subversion is, you don't need to worry about any of this. SourceForge's documentation is here and here. Our Using Subversion documentation page has been updated with the new URL, and migration instructions are below.

The short version is that if you are using Gallery from Subversion you need to run: 

   cd gallery2
   svn switch --relocate \
     https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gallery/trunk \
     https://gallery.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gallery/trunk

Additionally, If you're tracking gallery-contrib, you need to run the same command as above but using gallery-contrib instead of gallery.

how to swith tortoiseSVN? It offers a swith menu-item, but selecting this and entering the new
location gives a "trunks not identical". Any idea?

Gallery version = 2.2-svn core 1.1.24
PHP version = 5.1.6 apache2handler
Webserver = Apache/2.2.3 (Win32) DAV/2 PHP/5.1.6 mod_ssl/2.2.3 OpenSSL/0.9.8d
Database = mysql 5.1.11 beta-log,
Theme=PGlightbox,
Gallery-URL=http://lf-photodesign.de

I don't use TortoiseSVN, but I found this doc on their web page, perhaps it'll help:

Thanks, hmmm- that's exactly what I was trying - probably the repository hasn't changed yet as I still can update using the old repository path without problems...

I'm using tortoiseSvn on one of my Windows machines and did the relocation last Saturday.

What Bharat describes worked for me back then. The operation took a very long time and it was successful.

Thanks, that encouraged me to retry - it seems to do something, at least it says working, updates the kBytes transfered (very slow) and displays the red error message as before ...

Error: 'https://gallery.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gallery/trunk'
Error: is not the same repository as
Error: 'https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gallery'

I think my problem that my current repository does not have the 'trunk'

you should only change the host part, adding the sub-subdomain.
when choosing the relocation action in tortoiseSvn it defaults the SVN URL to the existing URL. just change the host part there.

got it ...

With TortoiseSVN, right click your gallery-folder, i.e. \GALLERY2,
select "Relocate..."
and in the pop up appearing enter
------
From URL:
https://gallery.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gallery/trunk/gallery2
To URL:
enter "https://gallery.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gallery/trunk/gallery2"
------
Press OK, and wait ...

(I was stuck first on the Command "Switch..." which is in the same menu - and the path needs to be slightly different (at least in my case)).

SVN update is flying in at the moment - ended perfectly in revision "15386".
