So, I asked around on IRC. It seems the precise procedure for doing these imports isn't very documented, but here's what I gather.
Infrastructure do not import CVS. The simple suggestion is to tar up the relevant parts of the CVS repository and add a tarball of that into SVN. If you want more than that, grab an rsync of sourceforge CVS [1], use cvs2svn to make a svn repo, then create a svnadmin dump file from that [2]. To import SVN, provide infrastructure with a svnadmin dump file. Grab your SVN repo from sourceforge, and run svnadmin dump on the bits that you want imported. Gzip up the dump file and scp it to your local SSH user account on people.apache.org [3]. Update the jira ticket with the location of the dump file (along with where it should be imported). Infra cannot process the jira ticket (INFRA-3628) without the dump files. So a bit of work is required for someone that's an admin of the sourceforge project! cheers...

Anywhere web-accessible would be fine I guess. On Mon, May 9, 2011 at 8:20 PM, Andy Seaborne <[email protected]> wrote: > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-3628 > > Andy >
