[kepler-dev] can't connect to source.eecs.berkeley.edu

[Christopher Brooks]

Hi Derik,
Sorry for the delay, this slipped through the cracks.
The issues is not that source.eecs.berkeley.edu was down, its that it seems
that IntelliJ floods source.eecs.berkeley.edu with svn requests that eventually
crash the machine.  I have a script that kills the svnserve processes, but
it is not super reliable in that it sometimes kills all the svnserve processes,
which results in the error that you see.

I've been working with Sean Riddle on this and he said that one fix is to run

svn ps svn:ignore "src" ptolemy/

to except ptolemy from version control.

I'm not sure why IntelliJ has this problem.  Apparently some TortoiseSVN clients
can cause this problem as well.  I spent a day updating SVN recently and that
did not solve the problem.  My notes are at:
