This will most likely screw some ppl up, and fix others ...

CVSROOT has now moved to the new machine, finally ... and I've cleaned up
pathing ... and CVS_RSH=ssh now works again too ...

So, now CVSROOT is accessible as:

:pserver:<userid>@cvs.postgresql.org:/cvsroot

-or-

:ext:<userid>@cvs.postgresql.org:/cvsroot

- where CVS_RSH is set to ssh

Now, I don't imagine it being *that* simple to move it over, so please let
me know if anyone sees any errors on commits or stuff like that ...

For those with already checked out repositories, from everything I've
read, all you have to do is change the value of the CVS/Root file to point
to the new Root ...

This, I'm also figuring, is going to fix the email's going out as me for
-committers ...

anoncvs.postgresql.org is going to be out of sync until, most likely,
tomorrow, for anyone trying to use that ... anoncvs is *no longer*
available through the main cvs repository either ...

CVSweb seems to be screwed up.
It gives an error:

------------8<------------
Error
Error: $CVSROOT not found!
The server on which the CVS tree lives is probably down. Please try again in a few minutes.
------------8<------------

when I access it with my browser.

Re: Major change to CVS effective immediately ...

CVSWeb is going to be broken for a day or two, while Vince and I work out
some issues as regards moving the main www site over to the same server
... but thanks for pointing it out, as I hadn't thought about it ..

It's just because the web interface is the only way for me for now
I can access the CVS repository. Otherwise, I wouldn't have noticed the problem
most likely...

Okay, everything looks well to me on the server itself ... first stupid
question, what is the IP of cvs.postgresql.org for you? it should be
85.28, but you might still have the old one cached ...

Wouldn't you have to apply this change in *every* /CVS subdirectory of
the tree? A fresh checkout seems easier.

However, I find that the permissions problem stymies a checkout too...
and yes, my DNS cache is up to date:

$ nslookup cvs.postgresql.org
Server: localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: mail.postgresql.org
Address: 216.126.85.28
Aliases: cvs.postgresql.org

I just ran this on my tree:

find -name Root -exec perl -pi -e 's,:pserver:([a-z]+)\@postgresql.org:/home/projects/pgsql/cvsroot,:pserver:\1\@cvs.postgresql.org:/cvsroot,' '{}' ';'
find -name Repository -exec perl -pi -e 's,/home/projects/pgsql/cvsroot/(.*),/cvsroot/\1,' '{}' ';'

and it looks like it didn't botch.

None of this helps me. I still can't get into that system. Can you
please check this and get me back in. If I can't get in I will have
to move PyGreSQL back to my own CVS repository and I think it is good
for both projects to leave it where it is. Will you be in today? I
can call you later to discuss this and hopefully resolve it.

Is anoncvs.postgresql.org working yet ?

I just tried :

# cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.postgresql.org:/home/projects/pgsql/cvsroot login

and

# cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.postgresql.org:/cvsroot login

with "postgresql" as password. In both cases the response was this :

Yes! I could not do that before. Did you fix something?

I will be sending some PyGreSQL changes over shortly. Thanks.

Case sensitive file names

While checking out TOT pgsql today onto an HFS+ file system (case-preserving, case-insensitive), I hit the following CVS conflict:

pgsql/src/backend/utils/mb/Unicode/utf8_to_alt.map pgsql/src/backend/utils/mb/Unicode/utf8_to_ALT.map

HFS+ can not store two differerent files in a path that differs only by case.

Mac OS X users will be grateful if you can find a way to rename one of these files.

Remove both of these files and update again. The files were recently
renamed to have a consistent case-ness.

This was from an anoncvs HEAD/TOT checkout I did into an empty directory less than an hour ago.

If it's already been fixed (yay!), the fix isn't at anoncvs yet.

I had that problem today to -- I work under Cygwin on Windows 2000; NTFS is
also case-preserving but case-insensitive:

U pgsql/src/backend/utils/mb/Unicode/utf8_to_ALT.map
cvs checkout: move away pgsql/src/backend/utils/mb/Unicode/utf8_to_alt.map;
it is in the way
C pgsql/src/backend/utils/mb/Unicode/utf8_to_alt.map

Indeed, someone forgot to remove the old file. I just removed it a second
ago, so you should be fine now.
