move to mercurial
I am going to be moving to mercurial for my revision control needs. It seems to do what I want, quickly and easily to boot.
To checkout primal, for example, use the following syntax..
hg clone http://hermes.cactuswax.net/repo/hg.cgi/primal
There is an alternate syntax that can be used with a simple web dir, but I am going to try the cgi script out first. Supposedly it has marked improvement over the "old-http" interface for Mercurial.
The added bonus is, that the repo is just a cgi interface to a web dir. You even get 'free' rss.
Also of note, Mercurial only puts a single information directory in the repository (.hg) at the top level. This is unlike subversion, which puts one in every directory. Go Mercurial!
Stay tuned as I migrate my repositories to new locations...
Subversion will remain up for a little while, while I test things and get the layout I want working.
EDIT (11/02/2005): The move to Mercurial is complete. Check out my respositories here: http://tower.cactuswax.net/repos
As an added bonus.. RSS repository feeds!
