Sweet! Is there any particular reason why everyone should use https?
Shouldn't http do for non-committers? Or am I nitpicking here?

The conversion is done.

http://www.parrotcode.org/source.html

Have fun!

If there are issues, let me know, and I'll fix em when I get back.

Everyone who could commit before, should be able to commit now.

If you find things slow, it's because everyone is trying to check out
at once.

Not really. http is fine for non-committers. But it was easier to
just document one of em.

Other things worth sharing:
- commit messages aren't moving right now. They are being sent,
they're just sitting in the moderation queue. They'll start
moving again soon.

zcat svk-mirror-dump | svnadmin load --ignore-uuid ~/.svk/parrot

should be

zcat svk-bootstrap-dump.gz | svnadmin load --ignore-uuid ~/.svk/parrot

Also, if you bzip2 that file it's a lot smaller:

-rw-r--r-- 1 nick nick 96313019 10 Apr 18:34 svk-bootstrap-dump.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 nick nick 58202323 10 Apr 18:34 svk-bootstrap-dump.bz2

I think it's fair to assume that anyone clueful enough to want to mirror
the entire revision history into svk will have bzip2 or know where to get
it.

It took a bit of time and digging for me to work out that the next command to
run after the svnadmin is

svk sync /parrot/mirror

Could that be added as 4th line?

Great work. Thanks a lot.

Anybody using Debian and emacs, a clue: I had to edit a couple of
files to get Subversion support enabled automatically. All of the
actual elisp code in:

/etc/emacs/site-start.d/50psvn.el
/etc/emacs/site-start.d/50vc-svn.el

was commented out. (?!) Once I uncommented it, emacs recognized that
Parrot code was Subversion-controlled, and the VC submode commands
seemed to work fine.

Open Source is not an excuse to write fun code
then leave the actual work to others.

Good ideas, all of them. I've updated the page to add that, and to
switch to bz2.

Thanks Roger... I really shouldn't update the website while watching
TV. Distraction and all.

Fixed and fixed.

Following Nicholas Clark:

bzcat svk-mirror-dump.bz2 | svnadmin load --ignore-uuid ~/.svk/parrot

presumably should be

bzcat svk-bootstrap-dump.bz2 | svnadmin load --ignore-uuid ~/.svk/parrot

(Although parrotcode.org is denying all knowledge of the file presently...)
