[desktop-discuss] JDS SVN is Live

[Dermot McCluskey]

The JDS Subversion Source Code Management (SCM) system on
OpenSolaris.org is now LIVE.

This means that both Sun and non-Sun community members
can now commit JDS changes directly to the same code
repository.  (Note: as per the recently proposed "JDS
Code Review Process", non-Sun developers must have one
successfully reviewed code change before they are granted
write access to the repository.)


1. READ-ONLY Anonymous Access to the Repository
===============================================
* If you are working behind a firewall, you will need to
  configure SSH for proxy use, as per these instructions:
  http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/tools/scm/svn_help/

* You do *not* need to setup an SSH public/private key
  for anonymous access.

* % svn co \
    svn+ssh://anon@svn.opensolaris.org/svn/jds/spec-files/trunk \
    spec-files
  - there is no password or passphrase required for this user
  - the final "spec-files" is an optional parameter which
    specifies a new dir to create for the local copy - if
    not specified, it will default to "trunk" in this case
  - this should take approx 5 mins, depending on your connection


2. READ-ONLY or READ-WRITE Access by OpenSolaris Username
=========================================================
* Configure proxy usage and attach your SSH public key to your
  OpenSolaris Username as per the instructions at:
  http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/tools/scm/svn_help/
  Note 1: ensure that there are no line-breaks when you
  paste in your SSH key
  Note 2: it can take several minutes to activate saved
  changes to your Profile

* Affiliate with the JDS project by signing in at
  http://www.opensolaris.org/os/ then going to
  http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/jds/ and clicking
  on the "Affiliate with this project" link.

* Send a mail to me (dermot.mccluskey at sun.com) requesting
  READ access to the SVN repository.

* Optionally, subscribe to the jds-notify at opensolaris.org
  email alias to see notifications for SVN commits:
  http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/jds-notify

* Then, to checkout a new local copy of "trunk" (HEAD), do:
  % svn co \
        svn+ssh://USER@svn.opensolaris.org/svn/jds/spec-files/trunk \
        spec-files
  Notes:
  - USER is your OpenSolaris username
  - the final "spec-files" is an optional parameter which
    specifies a new dir to create for the local copy - if
    not specified, it will default to "trunk" in this case.
  - this should take approx 5 mins, depending on your connection

* Write access will be granted after your first approved code
  change, as per the Code Review process being deployed:
  http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=14977


Please let me know if you encounter problems with this.

Regards,
