|
| 314 |
<p>By offering a choice of version control systems, developers who want or need
|
| 315 |
certain features, can choose which one suits them or their project the best.</p>
|
| 316 |
<p>In addition, there are quite a few projects that should be Gentoo hosted, but
|
| 317 |
are hosted elsewhere due to the fact that Subversion is not currently offered.
|
| 318 |
Examples include the app-vim/gentoo-syntax package (<a class="footnote-reference" href="#id6" id="id1" name="id1">[1]</a>), and
|
| 319 |
app-shells/gentoo-bashcomp (<a class="footnote-reference" href="#id7" id="id2" name="id2">[2]</a>).</p>
|
| 320 |
<p>Subversion has many advantages over CVS, including changesets, directory
|
| 321 |
versioning, atomic commits, versioned metadata, and more efficient branching
|
| 322 |
and tagging (<a class="footnote-reference" href="#id8" id="id3" name="id3">[3]</a>). Despite these advantages, many developers feel that
|
| 323 |
Subversion is not yet ready for the main tree due to scaling issues.</p>
|
| 324 |
</div>
|
| 325 |
<div class="section">
|
| 326 |
<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id13" id="specification" name="specification">Specification</a></h1>
|
| 327 |
<p>The following steps describe, in detail, the process of setting up the
|
| 328 |
Subversion svnserve daemon (over SSH) and creating new repositories.</p>
|
| 329 |
<p>One repository should be created per project. Reasons for this include easier
|
| 330 |
control over who has access, performance (checking out one big repository
|
| 331 |
takes many times longer), ease-of-use (branching and merging are more difficult
|
| 332 |
with one big repository), and meaningful revision numbers (since Subversion
|
| 333 |
uses repository-global revision numbers, revision numbers for project A will
|
| 334 |
increase on every commit even if no changes are made to project A).</p>
|
| 335 |
<p>For preexisting CVS repositories, instructions on converting (<a class="footnote-reference" href="#id9" id="id4" name="id4">[4]</a>) are
|
| 336 |
already available in addition to the cvs2svn documentation itself (<a class="footnote-reference" href="#id10" id="id5" name="id5">[5]</a>).</p>
