#16954: rsync behind firewall problem ----------------------------------------------+----------------------------- Reporter: asbjorn@ulsberg.no | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: MacPorts base bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: rsync svn update selfupdate sync | Port: ----------------------------------------------+----------------------------- I've followed the description given in [wiki:howto/SyncingWithSVN How to use svn for syncing the ports tree] and while {{{port -d sync}}} yields: {{{ EBUG: Synchronizing ports tree(s) Synchronizing local ports tree from file:///opt/local/var/macports/sources/svn.macports.org/trunk/dports DEBUG: /usr/bin/svn update --non-interactive /opt/local/var/macports/sources/svn.macports.org/trunk/dports DEBUG: changing euid/egid - current euid: 0 - current egid: 0 Fetching external item into '/opt/local/var/macports/sources/svn.macports.org/trunk/dports/sysutils/MacPorts/files' External at revision 41076.

How can I avoid rsync alltogether? I'm behind a firewall and would like MacPorts to update through svn instead of rsync (or at least rsync against my locally svn-updated repository) since rsync won't work. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/16954> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
