Hi,
as discussed over the last year we finally cleaned up the subversion
repository structure of the coreboot repository.
The reasons for this change are:
- checking out all required utilities with coreboot is easier
- No more svn externals, as they break https checkouts
- branching and merging to/from other repositories will be a lot easier.
- our tree structure more similar to that of other projects
The tree now roughly looks like this:
{svn://coreboot.org/coreboot,https://svn.coreboot.org/coreboot}
|
+-+ branches
| +-- coreboot-v1
| +-- coreboot-v2-newbuild
|
+-- tags
+-+ trunk
+-- COPYING
+-- documentation
+-- Makefile
+-- NEWS
+-- payloads
+-- README
+-- src
+-- targets
+-+ util
+-- ...
So please update your repositories... you can migrate your old
repositories like this:
$ cd coreboot-v2
# make sure all your new files are added with svn add
$ svn diff > ../migration.diff
$ cd ..
$ svn co svn://coreboot.org/coreboot/trunk coreboot
$ cd coreboot
$ patch -p0 < ../migration.diff
That's it. The old repository (svn://coreboot.org/repos/) will stay
around for another while so all of you have enough time to switch.
It will, however, be read-only.
BTW: Those of you behind firewalls can now check out coreboot with a
single line again:
$ svn co https://svn.coreboot.org/coreboot/trunk coreboot
The wiki, build scripts, and other config files were updated to make
this as smooth as possible. If you are experiencing trouble despite
this, please let me know.
Best regards,
Stefan Reinauer
