CVS migration to SVN?

[Mike Noyes-2]

Everyone,
I think we should migrate to SVN. SVN integrates with Track well, and:

        <moorman> 1. Availability will be better on other services; we
        have a more scalable and resilient infrastructure under them
        <moorman> 2. Performance will be substantially better for any
        ops that actually involve data compares or over the wire
        communication
        <moorman> 3. Non-developers behind a firewall won't need to talk
        to their admin about punching a hole for 2401 to get pserver
        access to your repo

Mike;

I do not see a real need to migrate.

The current cvs usage "just works" and I haven't heart complains from users
that there are any difficulties using cvs. Not to mention performance pb's
with the few checkouts a week.

Given that I'm the one, who has done most of the commits the last two years
and every tag since we started to use cvs seriously, I'd like to stick to
what I'm used to.

And keep in mind a few tools to make release rely on cvs, these has to
reworked, if we switch to svn.

Same here.

Altough I no longer use CVS in any of my favorite projects.
As most, I've switched to SVN completely.

Yes, there is no time to go and break what is currently working.
Besides, we will only change something if sf.net forces us to change.

a simple user (me) note:

I see one benefit. Script updates would pull in new files
automagically.

understandable, I'v only worked with svn and find cvs tricky, and
confusing :)
