I would like to migrate Ethereal's CVS repository to Subversion in

including folder versioning and file renames/moves.

For people currently using anonymous CVS this means that you will
have to find a Subversion client and use

  http://anonsvn.ethereal.com/ethereal/trunk

instead of the current anonymous CVS repository.  A list of
Subversion clients can be found at
http://subversion.tigris.org/project_links.html. (A client is
available for Cygwin as well.)  You can use the URL above to test
if you'd like; it's a several-week-old copy of the CVS repository.

Unless anyone has any objectioins, I'd like to migrate to
Subversion some time next week, around Wednesday or Thursday.
I tried to set up my subversion client (tortoise), but currently

http://anonsvn.ethereal.com/ethereal/trunk

doesn't seem to return any data, even when try to view it with a
webbrowser.

Had a look (using Ethereal :-), the URL don't return any data, not
for tortoise and not for the webbrowser either.
The server just immediately closes the connection again without
returning any data.
And here's what I get:
: svn co http://anonsvn.ethereal.com/ethereal/trunk

subversion/libsvn_ra_dav/util.c:661: (apr_err=175002)
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/ethereal/trunk'
subversion/libsvn_ra_dav/util.c:285: (apr_err=175002)
svn: PROPFIND of '/ethereal/trunk': 503 Service Unavailable
(http://anonsvn.ethereal.com)
That's similar to the error reported be tortoiseSVN in the standard configuration using http:


Shot in the dark here; I haven't set it up myself yet: maybe it should be

svn://anonsvn.ethereal.com/ethereal/trunk

svn: will only work with a subversion client, of course.

Well, I tried svn: and ssh+svn: but none worked as they showed the same problems.

BTW: I've seen

http://anonsvn.ethereal.com/ethereal/trunk

working before, so there seems to be a server problem.
