(If I understand it correctly this question is similar to "kernel" by Linus versus "kernel-next" by Stephen Rothwell - right ?)No, https://code.wireshark.org/git/wireshark was a read-only mirror of the subversion repo and should be considered dead (I expect Gerald will remove it at some point).I think it would be useful to keep it as a read-only mirror for browsing the code easily.Why? It will have exactly the same contents as the main repository, so there will be no difference between browsing one or the other.There are probably many links pointing to https://code.wireshark.org/git/wireshark on the Internet and removing the repository will break them. Keeping it updated is trivial OTOH.I'd prefer to have as few repositories and repository URLs as possible. This would hopefully make things less confusing for developers and is one less thing to monitor and maintain on the server side. (On the other hand I think there's a compelling argument for mirroring to GitHub, especially if we can import pull requests into Gerrit.) For the time being I've redirected the following URL prefixes to Gerrit: http://anongit.wireshark.org/git http://code.wireshark.org/git https://code.wireshark.org/git I'm able to fetch using a couple of old test repositories here. If anything isn't redirecting properly please let me know. (It looks like people are still checking out from anonsvn.wireshark.org/wireshark. I'm not sure what to do about that.)
Git allows the server to send back special messages for the client to display along with success/failure (Gerrit uses this to send you the URL when you upload a new review). I don't know if SVN has something similar, but if so we could add the migration message there as well. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
