hi all.
due to the discussion on pd-dev whether we should switch to subversion, i have set-up an svn-server at puredata.info and created a mirror of the pd-gem repository: https://svn.puredata.info/svnroot/gem/ (note that this mirror is some days old, so the newest changes (videoIO) will not be there)
since the developer-base of Gem is rather small, i think we could simply give it a try. the users would be the same as for the puredata.info portal.
what do you think?
basically we could do the switch anytime.

well, at least after i have the login-names of the developers... if you have forgotten yours, i think it would be better to mail me and we can try to find and reactivate the old one, instead of just creating a new one.

What do you think of SVN's branch system? Have you used it yet?

yes. i like it better than the CVS way of doing things. it makes me less confused.

What are the advantages of using SVN compared to CVS for our purposes?

well, i guess the adavantages are not _that_ huge compared to what e.g. the pd-cvs would gain from switching to subversion.
here are a few:
- cleanup of the repository files: renaming of files like my "pix_filmNEW" to something which like "pix_filmBETTER" (only joking), or to something really meaningful.
- cleanup of the repository structure (remove unused directories, like ./src/yuv or ./src/Gnu without losing the history)
- keep the directory structure of branches tidy: in CVS you cannot create a directory in one branch which does not exist in the other branches. for example, like the current videoIO project of thomas: in an svn repository his commits would be totally invisible to the "trunk", he could just work on his branch and do whatever he wanted (e.g. create/delete directories,...)
- and finally: if pure-data's cvs is to switch to subversion one time and it is to be hosted at puredata.info (these are all "ifs" and "whens" to be decided not by me), then i would like to have tried this out in real world beforehand.
