=====================================
 The Docutils_ Subversion Repository
=====================================

:Author: Lea Wiemann
:Contact: docutils-develop@lists.sourceforge.net
:Revision: $Revision$
:Date: $Date$
:Copyright: This document has been placed in the public domain.

.. _Docutils: http://docutils.sourceforge.net/

.. admonition:: Quick Instructions

   To get a checkout of the Docutils source tree (with the
   sandboxes), type ::

       svn checkout http://svn.code.sf.net/p/docutils/code/trunk docutils-code


   If you are going to commit changes to the repository, please read
   the **whole document**, especially the section "`Information for
   Developers`_"!

.. important::
   As of 2013-03-13 the subversion urls have changed.

   The Git clone at http://repo.or.cz/w/docutils.git is currently not
   updated and should not be used.

Docutils uses a Subversion_ repository located at
``docutils.svn.sourceforge.net``.
Subversion is exhaustively documented in the `Subversion Book`_ (svnbook).

While Unix and Mac OS X users will probably prefer the standard
Subversion command line interface, Windows user may want to try
TortoiseSVN_, a convenient explorer extension.  The instructions apply
analogously.

.. There is a git_ mirror at http://repo.or.cz/w/docutils.git providing
   `web access`_ and the base for `creating a local git clone`_.

For the project policy on repository use (check-in requirements,
branching, etc.), please see the `Docutils Project Policies`__.

Accessing the Repository
========================

General Information
-------------------

Web Access
~~~~~~~~~~

The repository can be browsed and examined via the web at
http://sourceforge.net/p/docutils/code

.. currently not updated (last update 2012)
   Alternatively, use the web interface of the git mirror at
   http://repo.or.cz/w/docutils.git.


Repository Access Methods
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To get a checkout of the Docutils repository, first determine the root
of the repository depending on your preferred protocol:

anonymous access: (read only)
    ``http://svn.code.sf.net/p/docutils/code``

`developer access`_: (read and write)
    ``svn+ssh://<USERNAME>@svn.code.sf.net/p/docutils/code``

.. git clone: (read only)
    ``git clone git://repo.or.cz/docutils.git``

Checking Out the Repository
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To check out only the current main source tree of Docutils, type ::

    svn checkout ROOT/trunk/docutils

(Substitute your preferred repository root for ROOT.)  To check out
everything (main tree, sandboxes, web site, and parallel projects),
type ::

    svn checkout ROOT/trunk docutils

This will create a working copy of the whole trunk in a new directory
called ``docutils``.

Note that you probably do *not* want to check out the ROOT itself
(without "/trunk"), because then you'd end up fetching the whole
Docutils tree for every branch and tag over and over again.

To update your working copy later on, ``cd`` into the working copy and
type ::

    svn update

..
  Creating a local git clone
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Users of git_ can clone a mirror of the docutils repository with ::

    git clone git://repo.or.cz/docutils.git

  and proceed according to the `git documentation`_.

  .. _git documentation: http://git-scm.com/documentation

Switching the Repository Root
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you changed your mind and want to use a different repository root,
``cd`` into your working copy and type::

    svn switch --relocate OLDROOT NEWROOT

.. _developer access:

Information for Developers
--------------------------

If you would like to have write access to the repository, register
with SourceForge.net_ and send your SourceForge.net
user names to docutils-develop@lists.sourceforge.net.
(Note that there may be a delay of several hours until you can commit
changes to the repository.)

Sourceforge subversion access is documented `here`__

__ http://sourceforge.net/p/forge/documentation/svn/


Setting Up Your Subversion Client For Development
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Before commiting changes to the repository, please ensure that the
following lines are contained (and uncommented) in your local
~/.subversion/config file, so that new files are added with the
correct properties set::

    [miscellany]
    # For your convenience:
    global-ignores = ... *.pyc ...
    # For correct properties:
    enable-auto-props = yes

    [auto-props]
    *.py = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id Revision
    *.txt = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id Revision
    *.html = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id Revision
    *.xml = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id Revision
    *.tex = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id Revision
    *.css = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id Revision
    *.patch = svn:eol-style=native
    *.sh = svn:eol-style=native;svn:executable;svn:keywords=Author Date Id Revision
    *.png = svn:mime-type=image/png
    *.jpg = svn:mime-type=image/jpeg
    *.gif = svn:mime-type=image/gif


Repository Layout
=================

The following tree shows the repository layout::

    docutils/
    |-- branches/
    |   |-- branch1/
    |   |   |-- docutils/
    |   |   |-- sandbox/
    |   |   `-- web/
    |   `-- branch2/
    |       |-- docutils/
    |       |-- sandbox/
    |       `-- web/
    |-- tags/
    |   |-- tag1/
    |   |   |-- docutils/
    |   |   |-- sandbox/
    |   |   `-- web/
    |   `-- tag2/
    |       |-- docutils/
    |       |-- sandbox/
    |       `-- web/
    `-- trunk/
        |-- docutils/
        |-- sandbox/
        `-- web/

The main source tree lives at ``docutils/trunk/docutils/``, next to
the sandboxes (``docutils/trunk/sandbox/``) and the web site files
(``docutils/trunk/web/``).

``docutils/branches/`` and ``docutils/tags/`` contain (shallow) copies
of either the whole trunk or only the main source tree
(``docutils/trunk/docutils``).
