Opinion about the usage of --- > FWD:- EU SVN Mirror - Open for business

[Ashish Vijaywargiya]

Hello All Ofbiz Committers ,

Please read the email content shown below.

Anybody from the Committer are using this EU SVN mirror ?

If Yes then we would like to know the opinion about its usage.

I am thinking to give it a try but before starting it I preferred to ask it
from community members.

Please share your thoughts.

Thanks

Folks,

The hotly anticipated EU SVN mirror is now open to all committers.
svn.eu.apache.org has been running for a couple of months and we are
looking for people to start using the mirror on a full time & permanent
basis.

We currently only mirror the main repo, that is /repos/asf/
All other repos remain available only through svn.apache.org, i.e
/repos/private/

If you intend to use the new mirror you can use the relocate function,
saving you having to check out all your local working copies from the
mirror.  Do this by using the following:

svn switch --relocate $old $new
i.e. "svn switch --relocate
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk
https://svn.eu.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk"

Reminder:  Don't forget to use HTTPS otherwise you won't be able to
commit any changes.

There are two other good reasons to change:

1 - The EU mirror (svn.eu.apache.org) is almost twice as fast as the
master (svn.apache.org) - This is noticeable immediately after switching
over. More so for those located in the EU.

2 - We are now providing "experimental" support for git-svn over SSL.
This is only available through the EU mirror.

It is also worth pointing out how the commits made through the EU mirror
are handled.  After you commit your changes they are proxied back to
svn.apache.org - These commits are then synchronised back to
svn.eu.apache.org. In light of this, I would advise that you get into
the habit of running "svn up" before making any local changes, where you
possibly can.


Cheers,
Your infra team

Thanks Jacques for your comments.
For now I think its good to keep with Apache SVN instead of moving to
Mirror.
