Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

Here's a cvs update:

I've got made a test repository on the account bitterchick provided, and tested that access via ssh works. We'll be able to provide access to folks without having to give them the account password, which is nice.

The next step is to create the real repository, for which I need to know the folder structure of the source tree, or to get a copy of the sources.

After that, I'll write up a page of instructions on how to give someone access, how to check out the sources and how to commit those changes back into the repository.

WOOHOO!! Go Rob! If you need cookies, just let me know.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Is it simpler for me to send you the files, or for me to connect with the client and do it myself? The latter is what I did with Karl.


Rob - Apr 30, 2003 3:00:02 pm PDT #3949 of 10000

Did Carl have you do a cvs import to get started? If so, you can do the same thing with this repository.

If not, I need to set up a module before you can start adding files. In that case, it's probably easier for you to send me the files.

If you need details on how to set up your local cvs to talk to this new account, let me know and I'll email it to you.

I imported all the files into Karl's setup using the client login info he gave me.


Rob - Apr 30, 2003 3:34:21 pm PDT #3951 of 10000

OK, I'll email you the same client login info for the current setup. At the moment it appears to have shell access disabled again, but I'm sure that will be cleared up soon.

Thanks, Rob. I'll have a look when I get home.

DX! I've put in the redirect in the code that sends a showthread request for an archived thread to the correct place in your archive page. So feel free to threadsuck threads and mark them archived at your leisure.

Give me a holler and I'll actually suck those records out of the posts table.

Huh. It works, but.... how? I don't see any NAME tags on the archive page. I guess I should look at the php code, eh?

Scroll down to the Natter threads from the Phoenix. They have names.

So [link] should take you there.

I am a dum-dum. It didn't occur to me that the NAME attribute would be in the same tag as the HREF. I always code my NAME tags separate.
