[eml-dev] EML code repository migrated to SVN

[Shaun Walbridge]

Hi all,

The repository for EML has been migrated to Subversion (SVN) from CVS, 
as we are migrating all of our repositories to the improved revision 
system. All the existing revision history and data remains, but is 
accessed in a slightly different way.

The repository can be accessed directly through the web, at the URL:
   https://code.ecoinformatics.org/code/eml/trunk/

The same repository can be checked out, provided you've installed the 
subversion client software, by typing:
   svn checkout https://code.ecoinformatics.org/code/eml/trunk/ eml

Which will checkout the trunk to a folder called 'eml'.

If you're on Windows or OS X, there are nice GUI interfaces which can be 
used as an alternative to the command line. I'm happy to help you set 
one of these up if you'd like.

Once you've checked it out, most of the commands you used in CVS are the 
same:
   svn diff README
Will show differences between your local copy and trunk.

Some commands are improved:
   svn status
Will show all differences between the local copy and trunk, in a 
condensed format. Let me know when you've had a chance to try out SVN 
and of any concerns you may have.

The CVS repository is still online in a read-only form, and will remain 
so until we've eliminated all dependencies on it from our other software 
packages.

cheers,
Shaun
