Slugging it out
So DSpace is moving from CVS to Subversion. And I still haven’t rehacked and installed 1.4.1 yet. Sounds like a golden opportunity to get MPOW running on Subversion—call it a parting gift. I was never all that fond of CVS anyway.
I spent much too much time getting Subversion set up and talking to Eclipse today. I believe I now have it together—three branches, one for trunk, one for vendor (so new DSpace releases can get merged in), one for tagged releases. I successfully checked out the trunk in Eclipse at last (I’m honestly too embarrassed to explain the Problem Between Chair And Keyboard that cost me several hours’ frustration; let’s just say “cl00less SVN n00b” and leave it at that), and I’m about ready to start in with the re-hacking, but… ugh.
Ugh, I say. Why does source control have to be so damnably obtuse?
But I did it. I think. Until I find out I got something completely and utterly stupidly wrong. Which will probably happen early tomorrow.
