SCM-Manager and Repo URL

[Romain Gouyet]

Hi

I'm  using scm-manager 1.60 since a few month with more than 800 repository with success.

My repo urls are like http://server/hg/my-repo or http://server/svn/my-repo 

With SCM-manager 2.0, i saw that url will be in the form : http://localhost/scm/repo/hg/my-repo

Is there any way to keep my actual repo url working with Scm 2.0 ?

Because I can't imagine updating all my projects and dev settings to change all the repo URLs ...

thanks

Hi Romain,

just tried this. Good news first: We have implemented redirections for legacy repository URLs.

Mercurial is following these redirects (at least version 4.8.2 at my machine), so here nothing has to be changed.

SVN only mentions the redirect, which then can be applied

▶ svn update                                                                                      
Updating '.':
svn: E170011: Repository moved temporarily to 'http://localhost:8080/scm/repo/svn/my-repo'
▶ svn relocate http://localhost:8080/scm/repo/svn/my-repo                                      
▶ svn update                                            
Updating '.':
A    some_more_file
Updated to revision 2.

For git you can configure the client to follow redirects:

git config --global --add http.https://my.server.com.followRedirects true

Hope this helps.

Thanks for you answer.

Is there something to do to setup the redirection in scm-manager (hg and svn)?

Sorry I just saw the migration screen on the blog. I think my answer is probably here

No, there is nothing to do. The redirection works "out of the box" and for all migration options (COPY, MOVE and INLINE).
