Subversion GRASS Web pages repository

With the subversion client software installed, the current GRASS Web pages can be extracted using the command:

  svn checkout https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass-web/trunk grass-web

Current Web update

Committers should take care to use https for access, and use their ​OSGeo Userid for authentication. A commit command might look something like:

  svn commit -m "Extended description" somefile.php --username neteler

After your first commit SVN will remember your OSGeo user id and password so --username only has be used the first time.

Currently, a cronjob reads several times a day at ​http://grass.fbk.eu the contents from SVN and updates the web pages. Various mirror sites are sync'ing via rsync.

Near Future

The idea is to migrate all Web site to Drupal. A test server has been installed at ​http://grass-dev.osgeo.net . This will eventually become the content of ​http://grass.osgeo.org
