If you find that SourceForge's subversion system is buggered (again) and
refuses to let you make copies, it could be because you hadn't noticed
their not-very-well-advertised switch of access URL to:
"On November 31, 2006 the access method for Subversion changed. This
document reflects those changes. The old method had numerous problems,
including spurious 50x error messages and other issues that kept it from
functioning fully. This newly documented access method solves many, if
not all of the issues with the old mechanism.
Users of the old method
(https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/PROJECTNAME) should switch to the
new access method
(https://PROJECTNAME.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/PROJECTNAME) using
these steps:
1. Make a copy of your local working copy.
2. Run 'svn info' at the root of the repository content, it should
display a line that appears similar to: URL:
https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/PROJECTNAME/trunk
3. Run the following command at the root of the working copy: svn
switch --relocate
https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/PROJECTNAME/trunk
https://PROJECTNAME.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/PROJECTNAME/trunk
SVN is a complex tool."
Right, and it doesn't get any easier when SourceForge keep arseing about
with it.
