CVS replaced by Subversion
Tuesday, 12. February 2008, 16:34:51
After alot of untraceable trouble with setting up CVS on a local test server for 2 days, I kicked it from the server and installed Subversion instead. It worked perfectly on my first attempt, even though I never installed it before.
When I started I had CVS ready after around 10 minutes, configured the firewall and created a repository. Everything looked fine as always. Then I tried to access the repository... but instead of a connect I got an error message: "no such repository"! After reading endless threads describing but never solving my problem I decided to try Subversion instead, even though I wasn't familiar with it until today. I read a documentation and installed it using a pretty neat manual I found on linuxfromscratch.org.
Now all works well and I can finally head home. I'm so dead beat after hours and hours of trial and error with CVS, I'll surely have short nap and afterwards a nice time playing "Red Steel" on my Wii or "Tomb Raider Anniversary" on my PC.
