Re: Apache CVS (was Re: Lessons Learned)

2004-12-14 Thread robert burrell donkin
please post this question to the right list 
(http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail.html).

FWIW i have used JMeter for web testing though (depending on your 
needs) cactus  (http://jakarta.apache.org/cactus) may be more suitable.

Related to this, I have a question regarding the
organizational structure of CVS. I noticed that
cvs.apache.org has, predictably, a different package
for all of the top-level projects, and even
sub-projects (although all of the commons-components
are considered components and not sub-projects, hence
the lack of any of the components at this top level).
I also noticed that each of the websites is listed as
[projectname]-site.
I'm certainly not the worlds foremost expert at CVS,
so I naturally assume that since apache is laid out
this way that this must a great way to lay out a
project & its sub-projects in CVS. Is this so? What
are the pros/cons to doing it this way, as opposed to
a true tree structure? I assume it has something to do
with the way CVS does things.
(though it is the conventional way to lay out CVS projects) i suspect
that this organization grew rather than being planned. (though it may
well be easier to manage permissions with this structure.)
we're moving to subversion and there have been quite a few discussions
about the best ways of laying our repositories recently. if you can use
subversion, seriously consider using it. the way our subversion
repository is laid out is a little different.

Hmm... I have been thinking about subversion.
Collabnet is doing our hosting, so moving to
subversion instead of cvs *shouldn't* be a big deal
from a technical standpoint. I don't know how well
supported subversion is via IDE's and the like. I
assume there is a good web client for subversion as
well?

How is apache changing its layout for subversion? I'll
check the archives for this list and see what is
mentioned, are there any other good resources for
seeing how Jakarta is going to use subversion?

Thanks
Richard

Hey Torsten,
Over at cocoon we have some code that might be worth
sharing on jakarta commons. So I was wondering
if the sandbox is open to any committer or only to
jakarta committers? (which I am not) I heard
different stories...
Any Apache committer can have sandbox karma just for the asking.
I factored out our javaflow (java continuations)
implementation and a java compiler interface (jci)
featuring a compiling classloader.
Any opinions on hosting that at jakarta commons?
Or should we keep that stuff under our umbrella?
These sound good to me. I would be +1 for having these in the Commons 
sandbox.

I know there are SVN plugins for IDEA (http://svnup.tigris.org/) and 
Eclipse (http://subclipse.tigris.org/). I've used the IDEA plugin, and 
it's pretty nice.

viewcvs (http://viewcvs.sourceforge.net/) now supports both CVS and SVN. 
This is what Apache uses - see http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/.

If you're on a Windows system, then TortoiseSVN provides a really nice 
Windows Explorer integration - similar to TortoiseCVS.

You can see the current layout by going to 
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ in a browser.

Cheers,
Ian

RE: Apache CVS (was Re: Lessons Learned)

2004-12-14 Thread Tim O'Brien
Richard,

The IDE most people seem to talk about most (Eclipse) has a plugin
called Subclipse (search for it on Tigris).  It works, but it isn't as
well supported as CVS. For example, the synchronize perspective doesn't
work yet.  But, tool support is a "which comes first?" problem, as more
projects move towards Subversion, more widely used IDEs will support it
out-of-the-box (but, who gets software in a box these days?).  

As far as Jakarta's eventual move to Subversion, you can see the start
here:

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jakarta/

I believe the plan is to have a directory per subproject.  Below that,
structure will depend on what an individual subproject needs.  But,
there are some tricky questions to answer especially in subprojects with
multiple "artifacts".  Take jakarta commons as an example.  We still
haven't decided where our trunk, tags, and branches will go.

Tim

I agree. I didn't mean that all patches, but they should at least be
'acknowledged'. Even a comment like 'this patch seems great, but I do
not have time to carefully analyze it right now' would be better than
simply ignoring it.
i'd agree with this. though i find it is often very difficult to 
achieve :(

flamewars are rarer in bugzilla and it can save time in the long run 
(like next release time) to give a good reason why a patch won't be 
applied (especially when it's a design reason).

a request for additional work from the patcher is also worth noting (if 
this is what's stopping the patch being applied).

The only complication is that the committer will need to get the jakarta 
unix group, so it'll take us a little bit longer to add karma.
