Alternative to subversion?

targa2000 — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 11:36:12 GMT

Is there other ways to download or access Alfresco source code other than using subversion? ftp? http download?At one site, where we are using alfresco it appears the command line usage of subversion outside the firewall is blocked by the firewall.

Even if you use the http protocol way of accessing the repository?

http://svn.alfresco.com/repos/alfresco-open-mirror/alfresco/HEAD

Thanks,

I'm afraid those are the only options. It's odd that the http version is blocked - that's just "regular" web browsing. I suppose you could probably use a recursive "wget" and try that way, but it would probably just be easier to copy it all to a USB stick from a different site.

Thanks,

I can access it via http through a browser but not via command line :

svn co http://svn.alfresco.com/repos/alfresco-open-mirror/alfresco/HEAD/

I don't want to manually copy and paste all the code from a browser. Yes, transferring it from USB from another location is a good idea.

Most likely going through a proxy. Just configure subversion to use the same proxy.
