SVN issue with revision argument CS_SOURCE_REV_HEAD
« on: July 16, 2006, 08:45:14 am »
When I try to enter the line "svn co -r CS_SOURCE_REV_HEAD https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/crystal/CS/trunk/cs" in my terminal as per the development guide, I get the error:

Quote
svn: Syntax error in revision argument: CS_SOURCE_REV_HEAD

Is it just me or should this not be happening?  I've tried with CS_SOURCE_REV as the instructions for compiling explicitly request, but have gotten the same result.

SVN is configured to connect to svn.sourceforge.net with HTTPS through my firewall. 

My version is from the synaptic repositories, as I took the instructions on subversion.tigris.net for Debian systems and applied them.

Turn on java script in your browser.
Turn on java script in your browser.

Then CS_SOURCE_REV_HEAD will be translated to a number 24890.

With JavaScript off, you should be getting a warning up top in red telling you it's needed, followed by another line telling you that it won't be able to show system-specific info or dates.  That means that the menu up top won't work, and those date/revision macros like CS_SOURCE_REV and PS_SOURCE_DATE will be off.

Never mind the warnings about revision errors.

I looked through history.txt and got the latest revision number listed, then downloaded with the number as the -r argument.

Apparently a slash present in the compile guide was in the back end of the HTTP section.  This was the cause of the nonexistent URL error.  I've downloaded and compiled CS fine now.

I don't think the latest CS date is in the history.txt.  You need 24890 to get rid of the Bronze Doors unloading crash.

Just turn on JavaScript for the thing, or at far least open it up as plain text and look at the variables in the top block with the date and revisions.

I've already done that, thank you.

PS: I was forwarded to vaalnor.mine.nu, hopefully the instructions there should help me get this thing running and task looked after.
