does dmca push us further toward distributed rev control?

[Sloth]

What do those of us who pick up the latest rev from SVN need to do in order to continue using the new system? I have Eclipse and Subversion installed and operating. As of right now my Forge is not working because of a prob in card.java (see the issues).

I always forget to commit new classes. It's really not funny anymore. I will add it to the SVN (and to the git when I have figured out how to commit).

Apple released their new Lion OS update today. I downloaded and ran the installer. Java is no longer included with the OS installation. I launched Forge which in turn launched System Update.

System Update froze about one third of the way through. After about 30 minutes it quit and I was able to re-start forge to restart the java download + installation.

I started Eclipse and updated. Eclipse now tells me:

Description Resource Path Location Type
The container 'JRE System Library [JVM 1.6.0 (MacOS X Default)]' references non existing library '/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Frameworks/JavaRuntimeSupport.framework/Resources/Java/JavaRuntimeSupport.jar' ForgeSVN Build path Build Path Problem

I finally managed my first commit.

Is everything ok with it (right location, etc.)?

[Snacko]

Install egit from Eclipse marketplace, then clone git://gitorious.org/cardforge/cardforge.git; after that just pull changes as they keep coming.

@Sloth
all fine

Chris H. Note that the Maven build will be broken for a bit. I have to update all the SVN and Google code to Git. I'll also add a feature to upload the final packages to cardforge.org (Rob gave me the info for that).

Sorry guys, I was completely messed up today dealing with bringing my wife for an Endoscopy that was supposed to be over around 1, it was more like 2:30.

I'm just now getting to the google SVN list. Just so we have a backup, I'm copying the developers list here.

No need to apologize. There are things more important than Magic (not many though )

[Jaedayr]

Git installed, clone made at Gitorious.org, but now I am stuck. Should I just wait for the user friendly instructions that someone nice will be putting together sometime?

[Rob Cashwalker]

I gave a rough outline of configuring EGit for eclipse.

[Jaedayr]

I get Auth fail when I try your instructions Rob. I have been messing with this for a few hours today and I think I need a break.

The deck editor provides access to, basically, over 2/3 of the Oracle card database. I do not think removing mtg-data.txt would have much impact on the project's standing under copyright law.

perhaps not, but it would be best if we could somehow not distribute verbatim card texts directly from the repository.

it's kind of like how mws works. there's the core mws, and the mtg gamepack that is released separately. i know we can't completely remove the rules from the code. we can't go to that extreme. but i think we can give it a shave.

. . . I started Eclipse and updated. Eclipse now tells me:

Description Resource Path Location Type
The container 'JRE System Library [JVM 1.6.0 (MacOS X Default)]' references non existing library '/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Frameworks/JavaRuntimeSupport.framework/Resources/Java/JavaRuntimeSupport.jar' ForgeSVN Build path Build Path Problem

maybe your jre moved. have you tried Window menu, Preferences menu item, Java category, Installed JREs subcategory, Search button?

[Braids]

something bad happened during the installation of egit. it looks like i'm going to have to reinstall eclipse. this could actually prove insightful...
edit. eclipse has an installation time machine! Help menu, About Eclipse menu item, Installation details button, Installation History TAB. i'm going to try to go back in time. reminds me of windows xp system restore.
edit 2. reverting to prior eclipse configurations was fail. error dialogs ensued. reinstalling eclipse now.

now that we've migrated away from google code, do we have a wiki anywhere? i'd like to write some howto documents and let others edit them. this forum does not lend itself well to that.

Although I was considering if it would be a good idea to migrate it over to gitorious.

omgzbbq! thank you!!!!!! i can't edit it. oh well. oh, wait, yes, i can. yippee!

Although I was considering if it would be a good idea to migrate it over to gitorious.

unless it completely sucks, i think it would be best to leave it here. this site seems rather immune to DMCA. maybe we could use it as a distribution point for certain files, or at least a place to link to mediafire or whatever.
edit.i can't edit our wiki here, and i bet Goblin Hero would have to give me edit rights to all of slightlymagic's wiki pages. which i don't really want.

@Rob or @jendave: could you add me to the gitorious project? username is braids. (oddly enough, i can edit your wiki without being a member! or maybe you added me without my knowledge... hmm...) thanks, Rob.

edit 2.i can edit our wiki here. Chris H. pointed out that i just needed to log in.
