[kepler-dev] Conversion of Ptolemy II Tree to SVN this week

[Derik Barseghian]

Hi Christopher and Kepler developers,

We're delaying a bit with our transition to SVN to do a little more  
testing.
If we don't hit any problems tonight we'll lock kepler and kepler-docs  
CVS and do the move tomorrow morning.

So if everyone could plan on *not* using kepler and kepler-docs CVS in  
the morning, that would be appreciated.


One note Christopher: I notice files in the new ptII SVN don't have  
properties viewable with e.g the svn proplist command. My guess is  
this is because you didn't use --default-eol=native in your  
conversion, thus treating all files as binary(?). Which is a safer  
route for conversion to avoid repository corruption, but now the  
properties are not available. I haven't thought through what the  
ramifications of this are, but I wanted to bring it up to get your  
thoughts.
