I think the problems you had with mushclient.cnt file is because it was marked as binary in my cvs repository.
Oh, that might do it. I did notice, by the way, that some entries in the patch file were of the form: "binary files X and Y differ" -- but with no indication of how. So those binary files didn't get patched.

The directories shown there seem empty, David.
Indeed, that's normal actually. It's just a directory that holds the .bzr directory that tells bzr clients how to get the source. See:
http://www.binarygoblins.com/~david/bzr/mushclient/mushclient-4.21/.bzr/
It's the URL that you give to bzr, not a URL that humans are supposed to be able to read. The actual files are stored elsewhere, in a "shared repository":
http://www.binarygoblins.com/~david/bzr/mushclient/.bzr/
From there you can explore the 'repository' directory, although frankly I can't really make much sense of it directly. :-)
What's nice about the shared repository method is that the whole repository (all 17 versions) takes up only 9mb. The bzr branches are rather "light" in that sense; they don't require duplication of data, yet they all maintain they own state. (This isn't a feature unique to bzr, but I think that e.g. cvs doesn't do this.)
Anyhow, I'll apply those patches you posted and then go about putting up the pretty interface I showed for the FUSS project stuff. |

| I've added version 4.22. I also removed doc.ico from previous versions. Finally, I created a new directory for the zlib library with the forcelib change applied.
Now to finish making the repositories nicely visible...
As a note, when I'm done with this, I'll make a friendlier URL than the existing one. Something like www.binarygoblins.com/mushclient/bzr, perhaps. |

| OK, I have at least a first version done... Please see:
http://www.binarygoblins.com/mushclient/bzr/
That lets you browse the repositories.
You can "check out" a repository by using:
bzr branch [repository url]
where the URL is obtained from the "[Repository]" link.
To view the history of a repository, click on "[Log]". (Note that a given version will include the history of all previous versions, too.) You may browse a repository's contents by clicking on "[Inventory]".
I set up a simple page for the repositories so that if you click on "Repository" it'll give you an indication of what's going on instead of just giving a blank directory list.
At one point I'll try to figure out how to customize that page to make it more MUSHclient specific; in particular I would like to change the page title, have a link back to this site, maybe have brief compilation instructions (or a link to one of Nick's posts), etc.
Nick, if you could update the 4.22 announcement to use the new repository URL that would be nice. (I'm going to delete the old URLs soon to clear up clutter.)
All suggestions are very welcome. :-) |

| Yes that looks very nice David. I have amended the link on the client release announcement page.
If anyone wants to see exactly what is in the new version click on "Mark for diff" for an earlier version (eg. the one just before the current one), and then when the page refreshes, click on the "Diff" button for the current version. This shows all the source changes.
The source looks nice too, some of the spacing is a bit out, that is probably my fault in a way. I usually have tab stops set to 2 apart, and if the occasional tab crept into the source (rather than 2 spaces) they are being displayed on the web page with more than 2 spaces.
If there is some way of making the style sheet or whatever it is, that displays the source, default to tabs 2 apart that would make the display slightly better. |

| If I try to view a log of the files in the lua subdirectory, I see this:
A problem occurred in a Python script. Here is the sequence of function calls leading up to the error, in the order they occurred.
/var/www/mushclient/bzr/webserve-dir.cgi
The URL I clicked on was:

| | How odd... I'll have to look into that. The web interface is relatively new, I believe, so it could be a bug of theirs. I'll take a look at their code and see what they're up to. It could be a pretty quick fix: you'd assume that not being able to see subdirectories would be an easy bug to spot! |

| I disabled the .targz zip to not put too much load on my server -- it would have to generate a .targz every time somebody clicked that list. The better way to get the source is to install bzr and use it to download the source:
bzr branch http://www.binarygoblins.com/mushclient/repos/mushclient-current/ |

Anyway, I'd have to install a program to DL the source? |

| The diffs from earlier versions are still here:
http://www.gammon.com.au/files/mushclient/src/
The file bzr-setup-1.2.0.exe is a 5.65 Mb download, so there is a bit of an overhead the first time. It should theoretically only download changes once you have the full version downloaded, although when I tried recently with the link David gave above, it seems to be downloading the whole thing again. Maybe it didn't realize it was a version of the earlier download. |

Once you have downloaded it with a "bzr branch" command, you update it by going into the branch you created and doing "bzr pull". If you do that, it only downloads what is necessary.

I don't think so; it's a fairly simplistic web interface. I'll check, though.

Well, we're talking about the version control here, not just the source. What you're getting is the entire history of all MUSHclient versions.
I agree that it would be nice to have an archive of the most up-to-date version without having to install a VCS to get it. I'll look into that caching business. |

| I think this is the right thread to continue,
What happened to the BZR server? It continues to be announced in the release announcements, but seems to be down every time I try to access it. | | Top |
