RomRaider

I'm getting a dump of the old Enginuity svn repo right now (knock on wood). I'm really only interested in getting a single file out of it but for posterity I feel like I should archive it somewhere.

My best idea is to take the final revision and create a tag in the current repo. Anyone have any other ideas? Maybe load the whole dump in to a new repo? I'm just not sure if there's much value in that and I vaguely remember it being a horrible pain.

Edit: I went ahead and created a new repo. I don't suspect there will be that much interest, but if we ever need any of that code it's now available here:

http://svn.3splooges.com/romraider-arch/

And here's the class I was afraid I'd lost!

Hi, this is my first post, and I'm going to get straight into it

When you say dump, do you mean you got a set of server files for the old repo, or just a single "end of line" check out?

I know I'm a bit late to the party here...

Do you still have access to the old repo?

You'll see where I'm going with these questions when I post a thread any minute now

Fred.

I've just realised that I failed to read the first post properly...

I see that the old repo is still available. Hopefully revistion 797 of the old one and 1 of the new one are a clean match. If so that will facilitate my plans here.

Sorry for the pointless question to which an answer was already right in front of me.

Fred.

OK, for the record, the official sources are now available here:

https://github.com/RomRaider/RomRaider

This repository has a full history back to 2006 including all branches and tags from both legacy SVN repositories. It therefore renders all other repositories a permanent thing of the past. I hope everyone appreciates the quality of the repository as I put a few days work into making it as right as I possibly could given the interesting history of the project.

Dale's/dschultz's copy which will usually have the latest greatest bleeding edge new stuff before the official repo, in case you want something very new, is here:

https://github.com/dschultzca/RomRaider

You can always see who is doing what on which account and in which repo and which branch by looking at this:

https://github.com/RomRaider/RomRaider/network

If you want to work on it, go to the first link, click fork, and clone your own copy. Then add remotes for the official one, Dale's one, and any others that you're interested in using a set of commands like this:


Make your changes to your local master on top of whatever is most recent, then push them up to your github repo and let Dale know that you'd like your changes integrated. From there, it's up to him to review your work, tell you to go and jump off of a bridge, include your work, ask you to rebase it, rebase it for you, etc. Make his life easy by rebasing your work onto the latest publicly available commit (likely from his repo), and he'll make his own life easy by making sure any work that he's done is up there for you to rebase onto.

Both the old and new SVN repos are now historical only:

Old/original: http://svn.3splooges.com/romraider-arch/
New/recent: https://svn2.assembla.com/svn/romraider/

Both are mirrored in flat and git styles on github as backups and in a nicer format:

Old/original flat: https://github.com/RomRaider/original.flat
Old/original git: https://github.com/RomRaider/original.mirror
New/recent flat: https://github.com/RomRaider/assembla.flat
New/recent git: https://github.com/RomRaider/assembla.mirror

Don't use any of the last 6 links, they're purely for historical reference now.

Fred.

Looks great, thanks for the effort!

Yes thanks for all the work and getting us up to date with all the past history for reference. More good things should come from this.

You're most welcome! I'm glad you guys appreciate it :-)

nice, ill start with my own branch for utec, txs tuner lite and pro integration.

To reduce manual work, I'd advise holding off until post Maven migration. If you're in a rush, go ahead, but the entire directory structure etc will be changing completely in the near future.

I dont really need it now. Most of the work i did I gave to Dale. Just need to add functionality for fast logging better reconnection. you did a fine job migrating to git. How complicated is the move to Maven?

Thank you! :-)

I've done most of the hard work on the Maven migration already. I was supposed to work on it more today, but I've had one of the worst days in living memory. Hopefully when I sit down and get stuck in I can knock out something acceptable in another day or two of work. Fingers crossed. I'll update the forum with progress once I've made enough to show off.

Fred.
