I always use this blog post to do exactly that: http://subtlegradient.com/articles/2008/04/22/cloning-a-git-svn-clone and it works very nicely. So please publish your repository somewhere, so that others don't have to reclone the whole svn repo. Thanks, Ondrej P.S. Michael, you should learn git. :) P.P.S. Sorry I still didn't have time to port our 3D plotting from sympy to matplotlib. Seems like a lot of people would welcome that, but someone just needs to do it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Matplotlib-devel mailing list Matplotlib-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-devel
