Is that the repository of 1.6x?
I see no way to use an svn client there.
The whole "get involved" thing is more like..."get annoyed" imho.
So if someone has instructions on how to use SVN to obtain 1.6x I'd appreciate it.
There we go..finally.
Amazing how there appears to be no documentation help within the development site for SVN.
On the "Get Involved" page it says:
Quote:The development wiki is usually the first place to go if you want to learn how you can contribute to MyBB. The development wiki includes information about the development site, the official MyBB Coding Standards, and SVN Repository access for getting the bleeding edge. Most of the time your questions about development are on the development wiki.
Visit the Development Wiki...
Now if you clicked on the "Visit the Development Wiki..." it gives you all the instructions you need:
http://wiki.mybboard.net/index.php/Development
Then if you read the SVN Access section:
"SVN Access
MyBB allows you to have SVN access to public MyBB projects and repositories. This SVN access will allow you view the latest and greatest, cutting-edge code and test new features and bug fixes. Read more about SVN Access ยป "
Then you could have read more about SVN Access which redirects you to here:
http://wiki.mybboard.net/index.php/Devel...SVN_Access
That's all the information you need to setup. Documentation is provided with all SVN clients; Put it to good use. I personally recommend TortoiseSVN.
Now if you have any questions feel free to ask.
I used tortoise SVN from
HERE
1. Download and install the client
2. Once that's done, create a new folder somewhere on your hard-drive.
( I just called mine "1.6")
3. Right click on the new folder and select "Tortoise SVN -> Create Repository Here"
4. Now right click on the same folder again and select "SVN Checkout"
5. In the box that pops up, the first option is for the url to the repository. Place the following url in that first text area
http://svn.mybboard.net/mybb/trunk/
6. Then hit OK
This will download all the MyBB 1.6 files to that folder. Now just upload them to a server or install them on localhost as you would with mybb 1.4
That's helpful.
When I was looking yesterday and earlier I used the development site search and help and there is no documentation on SVN or subversion access. My biggest problem was the actual SVN location.
http://svn.mybboard.net/mybb/trunk
I rarely think of searching the wiki. Sure wish I had. I wouldn't have looked like an ignorant idiot.
I have the SVN checkout done.
btw...all the files are still labeleled as 1.4x branch. Is that how it is until you guys beta releases?

Nah, we all need to learn somehow, this thread is no doubt an inspiration to others who don't like to ask questions.
At least we don't use Git. I've never been able to work with it.

I think they said that would be one of the last changes.
