Re: Fork of abandoned SVN mirror - how to keep up to date with the SVN

[jamespetts <jamespetts@yahoo.com>]

Thank you very much for your reply :-) Ahh, I didn't realise that that sort of SVN URL should be avoided. Is there any way around that when the project itself uses that sort of URL? And I think that it does require a username and empty password. I haven't tried the Github IRC channel - I must confess - I did not know that there was one. 

Any suggestions about how to deal with the other problem?



The GitHub "Import a Subversion Repository" page does mention that you
should try to avoid "svn://example.com/project/svn" style URLs (which
SimuTrans uses).  Maybe it's having trouble with needing a username &
empty password?

Unfortunately, I've never actually used the "Import from SVN" on
GitHub.  I see you've already posted to http://support.github.com/
about this.  Have you tried asking in the GitHub IRC channel?
