Hi James,
 
did you try this:
 
For the TM project, I've been trying out SVN in a sandbox on the Eclipse Servers,
and hat quite some issues - see below. If you do want to try SVN and help fixing
these issues, you're more than welcome! Feel free to re-use our sandbox:
 
FYI, the issues I've found are:
* With Subversive client, repository access is painfully slow. Moreover, a colleague
  just was unable to commit anything - it would always fail due to network issues.
 
* With Subclipse client, things were better. Had to switch off the native client, but
  with the plain Java one it was quite ok. Faster than Subversive, but still quite a
  bit slower than CVS.
 
* Releng tools like "Search CVS", "Relnote Generator" dont work with SVN.
 
* I'm unsure whether the Mapfiles of the releng build process work with SVN.
 
Summing up, I was looking forward to SNV a lot, but after trying it out I
was disappointed and decided to keep using CVS.

Cheers,

Subject: [dash-dev] Move from CVS to SVN

 
What would it take to get the code repository transitioned to SVN?  It really impedes my ability to help contribute to the project since I cannot get CVS in any shape form or fashion to tunnel through the HTTP proxy here at work.  I would like to hear what y'all think about moving to subversion or is there some other way to get to the CVS repository that I have yet to try?
Thanks
