Today is a good day to end it all… sometimes.

Kdesvn for KDE4

Kdesvn is heading back to town. And now I’m talking about KDE4 downtown.

Do you remember my last KDE related post? Yep, that one warmly accepted? There was my so called list with negative points of KDE4 from my point of view. Now I’m glad that I can strikeout one more item from this list.

One loud fanfare ended with grandiose coda, please…

It’s few hours ago and now we have Kdesvn compilable with KDE4 libraries.

The first run.

Woohoo! Cheers to Rajko, the author and Kdesvn maintainer. Due to his fast commits it’s getting better and better every minute. (note: not every minute for sure, but it’s a hyperbole. A hyperbole that we novelists are using every hour)

So. What you can get in this state of code?

  • cool Qt4/KDE4 interface with Q3Support/KDE3 legacy modules required
  • random crashes included!
  • punkrock-like build scripts
  • no binary packages in our repositories yet (buildservice etc.)

OK, it’s not finished and it shouldn’t be used for real work yet, but I have to share one of good news – comparing to last dark days of my life.

    I still use KDESvn for my old projects, but since I’ve switched to Git, I still miss a KDEGit…
    Maybe we could have an KdeVCS with support for CVS, SVN, GIT, mercury, darcs, etc, provided as plugins…

    I think that Kdevelop guys have done something like this…
