Hi, I've just enabled the crontab job to sync per's base and opt and our contrib to the subversion repository at CLC. The repository can be browsed here: http://svn.berlios.de/viewcvs/clc/x86/tags/CRUX-2_1/ Every change in Per's CVS HEAD and ports tagged as CONTRIB-2_1 should appear there as well. Please complain if they don't (and if you care about it ;-)). Note that the sync is once per hour only. I also wrote a ports(8) driver for subversion, available at http://jw.tks6.net/files/crux/svn.driver Thanks Tilman for testing and suggestions. Finally, the "supfiles" for your /etc/ports: http://jw.tks6.net/files/crux/base.svn http://jw.tks6.net/files/crux/opt.svn http://jw.tks6.net/files/crux/contrib.svn After installing those, ports -u will update from the subversion repository, too. We'll need some more output filtering to make it look just like subversion, but for now I couldn't care less :-). If your svn repository requires username/password, set the 'USER' and 'PASS' variables in your "supfile": URL=https://some.host/svn/repos/ports/trunk COLLECTION=internal ROOT_DIR=/usr/ports/svn USER=joeuser PASS=secret That said, I plan to test importing/merging the sparc tree against this subversion tree soon, hopefully tomorrow, and will write a wiki page describing all this.
