Subversion and Trac URL Changes

Posted by rs picture rs on Tue 05 Jul, 2011 07:46:57 +0000

As part of the latest release we’ve start making our URLs a bit neater.

In the past, Subversion repositories and Trac projects URLs followed the pattern below:

Subversion repositories: svn{server-node}.xp-dev.com/svn/<repository-name>
So, you would end up with a Subversion repository hosted from svn2.xp-dev.com/svn/myrepository

And, Trac projects: trac{server-node}.xp-dev.com/<project-name>
So, you would end up with a Trac project hosted from trac2.xp-dev.com/myproject

Looks convoluted ? Well, it was, and we’ve made it much simpler by getting rid of the svn{server-node} and trac{server-node} subdomains. From now on your Subversion repositories and Trac project URLs should be based on:

Subversion repositories: xp-dev.com/svn/<repository>
So you would end up with a Subversion repository hosted from xp-dev.com/svn/myrepository

Trac projects: xp-dev.com/trac/<project>
So, you would end up with a Trac project hosted from xp-dev.com/trac/myproject

If you’re unsure of how these URLs are applied to your projects and repositories, do head to your Project’s Trac and Source Control tab in XP-Dev.com. It should show the correct URLs to use.

A lot of these changes have been done to make way for upcoming new features.

We are doing sensible redirects where possible (to preserve some backwards compatibility), but you should update your bookmarks as soon as possible, and if you need to, perform a Subversion Relocate on your locally checked out Subversion working copies.

If you have any problems, please do raise a support ticket and we’ll look into it.
