Now using DARCS for the Factor source repository

Tuesday, January 31, 2006

I got sick of SourceForge CVS. CVS sucks, the SF servers are always down, and their anonymous server lags. This is simply unacceptable, so I decided to take matters into my own hands.

I’m now using DARCS for the Factor source code repository now. I still haven’t decided how patch submissions will be handled; I’ll probably just ask people to post patches to the mailing list.

The repository is located at http://factorcode.org/repos. You can use a command like:
darcs get http://factorcode.org/repos
to download a copy. Then use darcs pull to stay up to date.
