Could the "log of recent SVN activity" links for GZDoom, ZDoom and ACC be updated to link to their new respective repositories on GitHub?

I won't get a chance to do it until the weekend but that should, of course, be done. Thanks for spotting it and reporting it.

Perhaps I could try to update it (try), but I would need the new direct and absolute links.

Changes should be made to c-include.php in the svn folder of the site.

I think the correct links are:

https://github.com/rheit/zdoom

https://github.com/coelckers/gzdoom


I've tried editing the file myself but, when I do, I get syntax errors on trying to load the various SVN pages in Firefox. I'm not sure why because I have been able to edit the file before and I'm only copy/pasting the new addresses into the exact same places in the file where the old addresses are and the php file loads OK from my desktop in Firefox. Obviously I'm missing something though. Any ideas?

Make sure that the \" \" encapsulators are intact. Don't remove the \ because then PHP does not know that it's supposed to be an escaped quotation mark, and will treat it like a string terminator.

Another thing you can do is use the following syntax: Funny as it may sound, PHP is the kind of language that will treat that as a valid string, rather than forcing it to output to the page. As anti-intuitive as that can be, that can be very useful when you're bungling up with syntax errors until you get used to viewing it as an escaped sequence.

I'm not sure whether or not there is a log page, but I think the closest to link to would be the commits page:

ZDoom - https://github.com/rheit/zdoom/commits/master
GZDoom - https://github.com/coelckers/gzdoom/commits/master
ACC - https://github.com/rheit/acc/commits/master

Thanks to you both. The problem was indeed that I was removing the trailing \ when pasting the new links in. Those links to the commits pages are much better than the links that I was using too. I think that it is all working as intended now.

BTW, I didn't touch the Mac GZDoom because it points to a google code page. However, I don't see the Mac GZDoom listed in the menus either. Is this correct?

In addition, I think that we can probably remove this page:

http://svn.drdteam.org/page.php?page=named

The information is out of date (ie relates to SVN) and there isn't much to say about the newer names (ie they just use the number generated by Git to identify them). Thoughts?

Indeed it is. Thanks!

GZDoom for Mac OS X is a separate port, which is different from compiling on the OS X the normal GZDoom.

It would probably just be better if the page were updated. The page points here: http://forum.drdteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=3962

Any updates you make to the first post on that thread should reflect on the page. I think your post from http://forum.drdteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=6118 would fit well in here.

Yes, of course, that makes sense. The post has been updated and the old one copied to later in the thread just for the sake of a record (not that it is really needed). Thanks.

You are welcome.

Sorry for the bump, but it's related to the subject.

The link to mancubus.net for SLADE's repository is down. Not sure if it'll come back up. But I think that's irrelevant, since SLADE is hosted on GitHub already. Here is the link to its repository there:
