SVN repository location change

Posted by Mark Rowe on Thursday, March 8th, 2007 at 8:33 pm

The location of the publicly-accessible SVN repository of WebKit is changing from svn://anonsvn.opensource.apple.com/svn/webkit/trunk to http://svn.webkit.org/repository/webkit/trunk. The location for developers with commit access remains unchanged. If you have a working copy checked out from the old URL you can switch it to the new location with the following command:

svn switch --relocate svn://anonsvn.opensource.apple.com/svn/webkit/trunk \
http://svn.webkit.org/repository/webkit/trunk

The change of repository location should resolve some of the repository availabilty issues that have been troubling developers over the past few days. The repository will remain available at the old location for some time to ease the transition.

    I can’t checkout using http://svn.webkit.org/repository/webkit/trunk. SVN says “400 bad request”. Pinging svn.webkit.org returns ‘17.255.216.51′. AFAIK 255 can’t appear in IP (only in mask). I think that something is wrong configured…

    Am I wrong?

    P.S. I’ve managed to start checkout from old place.

    This indiciates you almost certainly have an HTTP proxy server between your machine and svn.webkit.org that doesn’t understand WEBDAV requests. You can work around this by changing http:// to https:// in the URL.
