MonoDevelop project not updating

It has been stopped for several months.

Hi Lluis,

Unfortunately, it looks like someone managed to add a .svn folder to the repository. This makes it impossible to check out revision 136598:

~$ svn checkout -r 136958 'svn://anonsvn.mono-project.com/source/trunk/monodevelop@136958' --ignore-externals
svn: Failed to add directory 'monodevelop/main/src/core/MonoDevelop.Ide/MonoDevelop.Ide.Refactoring/.svn': object of the same name already exists

From reviewing the log, it looks like this was corrected in revision r136966.

However, the presence of the .svn folder in this range of revisions makes it impossible to check out any of these revisions, and this breaks Ohloh's importer.

Some serious admin hacking will be required to clean this out of the repository. If this is possible, it's the best solution.

If it can't be done, Ohloh does have an alternative Subversion importer which does not rely on checkout. This might be able to work around the issue. Let me know what you find out.

Thanks,
Robin

Fixing this in the repository is not going to be easy. How can I use that alternative importer?

Hi Lluis,

I've switched us over to the alternate downloader. Hopefully this will work, but we'll have to wait and see. I'll keep an eye on it.

Thanks,
Robin
