similar to: Which version control system to learn for managing R projects?

Gabor As someone trying to the rest of my team using Subversion (which I have used for a while, but more as a backup / record of changes), have you a neat / automated way of building a package from a subversion repository?

Hi, all, This isn''t about rspec, but this list has people whose opinions I respect. So, I''m looking for a new version control system for my local development. I was going to install subversion, but I''ve heard rumors of people using some newer ones. Thoughts? I''d like to be able to run it either locally or on a home server. If I run it off a home server, then

Does anyone use "revision control software" to manage their R-code? Any suggestions? Ideally, I'm looking for a, effective yet easy to implement/maintain package. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revision_control http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_revision_control_software --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, Just wondering whether anyone had thought about moving the R sources to a "distributed" version control system such as Bazaar, Git or Mercurial. These new generation systems make it easier to work on feature branches, allow working offline, are very fast, etc. Some projects that have moved to Git are Linux Kernel Perl Ruby on Rails ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git_(software)

Hey all, I''m very happy to announce that ActiveReload[1] has generously offered to sponsor a lighthouse[2] account for rspec. We''ll be moving ticket tracking there. We''ve already got the account set up and will soon make it public. We''re also going to be getting a sponsored slice at Engine Yard[3] to host source control, which will be either mercurial or git

Since you asked for comments... Personally, I'm disappointed to see Speex moving to Git from Subversion. I had just recently learned how easy it is to track progress of Speex using TortoiseSvn. That being said, I'm sure Jean-Marc knows best what the issues may be. How many people are expected to commit on this project this year? -mjc

Here are some notes/observations I've done on my setup that works for me. Hopefully it will be added to some r-forge documentation/wiki. I use: Windows Vista Business SP2 32bit TortoiseSVN 1.6.7 (Build 18415 - 32 Bit , 2010/01/22 17:55:06) PuTTY v0.60 (with Pageant v0.60) I have a deprecated r-forge project ('r-oo') that I will use through out. My r-forge username is

As of now, I can create a project from Git repository, run a builder on it, and even run the dashboard. Build pages look ugly because build.label in git is very long, a bunch of unit tests is failing, and I had to disable some functionality, namely displaying source control errors in the dashboard.

Hi the list, I try to use R-Forge for developping a projet. I am using tortoise SVN (last version) but I do not manage to Commit. I read the R-Forge user Manual and some post on but I do not manage to find the solution. Here is what I did: 1/ I download 'puttygen.exe'. I generate a key (256 bits). 2/ I save the private key in a file 'private.ppk' on my computer. 3/ I

If people would like to see the logical `patch set' that made up a CVS commit then cvsps may be useful, or, as others have said, use Tailor to convert to a local repos. in your preferred format.

Did the project ever come to a decision about making a transition to git? I'm trying to do some longer-term planning and it would be helpful to know what the roadmap is. Thanks! -Dave

Hello, Oscar > Anyways, if there is no Mercurial or Bazaar mirrors available, I will > try git. Recommendations on which one to use welcomed. There is git mirror at repo.or.cz: http://repo.or.cz/w/llvm.git, llvm-gcc & clang mirrors are available there as well. I'm updating it 'by hands' currently due to some reasons, so sometimes it will need 2-3 days for changes in llvm

Hello, Im running rails 1.1.2 and ferret 0.9.3 and cant install act_as_ferret. I tryed the following instruction at act_as_ferret wiki: "Installation Please use script/plugin install svn://projects.jkraemer.net/acts_as_ferret/tags/plugin/stable/acts_as_ferret for easy installation of the current stable version of the plugin. At the moment this is version 0.2.1 based on Subversion Rev.

Having a private branch would be handy for some experiments I'm doing. Two years ago there was an announcement by Owen Anderson, but the repo seems down now. -- Oscar

I think there are some community members who use git mirrors, though. --Owen

Hi all, in particular package developers, I'm exploring using a version control system to keep better track of changes to the packages I maintain. I'm leaning towards git (although mercurial also looks good) but am not sure what is the best way to set up the repository. It seems I can't set the repository directly within the R package main directory, since it will be incompatible with
