modified svn repository
I just merged the complete project history for my project into its subversion repository (by hand editing and concatenating dump files). This broke my checked out working copies so I imagine it will mess up Ohloh next time it pulls from my repository. Is this going to be a problem?
The project I'm talking about is http://ohloh.net/projects/3306
Thanks,
Davis
I think it depends on exactly what you did to the repository.
As long as it's possible to do a clean checkout of any given revision, Ohloh will be OK.
If you modified the repository such that the revisions we've already analyzed are different than they used to be (that is, you added back-dated revisions or modified existing revisions), then we'll probably have to dump our current content and start over. I took a quick look through the latest Subversion log, and it looks OK to me.
I'll go ahead a schedule an update of the Ohloh analysis and we'll see what happens. :-)
Thanks for the heads-up,
Robin
Thanks. Looks like it didn't work though since it currently says Step 1 of 3: Downloading source code history (Failed)
Adding back-dated revisions is exactly what I did so it isn't a surprise I suppose :)

Hi Davis,
Yes, there have been errors, but I don't think they're related to your recent changes. Periodically, we're getting connection refusals from the subversion server.... perhaps we are exceeding a bandwidth restriction?
I keep restarting the job occasionally, and we're slowly making progress.

Hi Davis,
The new report is finally ready, and we've got the surprising result of negative lines of code during the early history of the project.
Is this something you might have expected based on how you edited the repository? Should we dump the report completely and start over with a fresh project?
Robin
Lol, yeah I see the negative graph. I believe that the repository should be in good working order. It did mess up all my previous checkouts though when I updated after the modifications so it is probably best to dump the report and start over.
-Davis
So can you guys reset the project then?
Sorry, Davis, I got distracted. I started a fresh download of the project.
Thanks,
Robin
No problem. Thanks for the restart.
