Dissecting part of a subversion repo to git

Well, that was pretty easy to figure out. As per my last post, I was going to try to break out the AIDE+gpg part of the Annvix tools subversion repo to be it’s own git repo. It was scary simple. First, the location of AIDE+gpg in the subversion repo was “tools/AIDE+gpg” and it had one [...]

Enterprise Subversion gets a boost with Cornerstone 2
