What happened to SVN? (3 Viewers)

[revs]

I would wait - if you look, it seems as if they cleared out the SVN, and are now rebuilding it revision, by revision. going rather slow, but i think all files will be there soon!

We're currently resyncing from a fast SVN server to sf.net. Their incredible slowness forced us to go for a solution like this... If their services aren't down (again) soon they can cope with maybe 500 commits per hour. So it might take a while until they are up to date at around revision 20800.

In the meantime you might do some brainstorming and suggest other open source hosting sites where you could expect to find MediaPortal.
CodePlex - Open Source Project Hosting is slow as well
code.google.com is google
savannah.gnu.org doesn't fit the "audience"
BerliOS - The Open Source Mediator might be too "local"
...

Three days later and the revision is up to 4730

So this is going to take another week or week and a half? I was hoping to get the latest SVN code for the TVPlugin to help me add some missing settings to the For The Record client plugin, but I'm a bit stuck now

 

[disaster123]

yeah i also need the SVN.. sourceforge is realy slow. Don't know why not to switch to google code - it's fast

 

[justinteract]

it's up to 6140 now... ufff that will probably take another week or so

well.. google is google ... they may have said too many times dont do evil that they in fact have become e.... anybody that has ever used adwords understands how this money printing machine works

yeah that's right but in this case - At which point could it be problematic?

 

[justinteract]

TO: disaster123 .. well, there is no obvious problem with google. which is why (I guess) rtv said "google is google" and not google is expensive/slow/bad/sucks or any other hard fact... its like feeding the black hole, but if there is no other alternative that is free and fast google could of course be an option, but it should not be the first one.

The only other that came to my mind is cvsdude.com
They are commercial but offer a free plan for OpenSource projects Open Source Support at CVSDude
Dont know if this also applies to a caliber as MediaPortal.

sf.net got a little faster now and we've added some faster retry mechanisms to react on short outages. Previously the sync aborted during the night and no progress was being made until we restarted it

Nearly REV 6500 now - maybe it's up2date tomorrow (considering that the early REVs had e.g. the costly additions of the four default skins, etc).
