(That location previously contained an old BK repo of Sparse; I tarred that up and saved it if anyone wants it for some reason, but I think the Git repo contains the history.) I will soon move the Git repository as well, to the original location at /pub/scm/devel/sparse/sparse.git . I will likely maintain a symlink from my current repo's location, to avoid gratuitously breaking people's checkouts or automated scripts. However, I know that other people sometimes maintain Sparse Git repositories, and as far as I can tell, "people" directories only exist under /pub/linux/kernel/people. Where should people keep Sparse repos, if not there? Also, if possible, I'd like to have an HTTP 301 redirect from http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/josh/sparse (and everything under it, via RedirectMatch) to the corresponding page under the new homepage at http://kernel.org/pub/software/devel/sparse . Could someone with the appropriate access please do so, or let me know if I can do so somehow? - Josh Triplett ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

However, please note that the URL should be http://www.kernel.org/... ; it may matter in the future. -hpa ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

That doesn't seem to work. The .htaccess file (/pub/linux/kernel/people/josh/sparse/.htaccess) gets mirrored, but seems to get ignored. It contains the following: Redirect /pub/linux/kernel/people/josh/sparse http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/devel/sparse > However, please note that the URL should be > http://www.kernel.org/... ; it may matter in the future.

Argh; I noted that when doublechecking the syntax in the Apache documentation, and promptly failed to do it when writing the .htaccess file. Fixed, and thanks for noticing. - Josh Triplett ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
