Thanks! Next issue is about Python: I have used Python in conjunction with WinCVS before (never programmed Python myself) and I did so by installing from the ActiveState Python distribution. Now I see that ActiveState only offers the x64 version of the installer, whereas python.org has both.
Can cvs2svn use either one (32 or 64 bit)? And is any of them to be preferred (ActiveState or Python.org, 32 or 64 bit)? Furthermore the cvs2svn docs say: Requirements: .... - Python 2, version 2.4 or later. See http://www.python.org/. (cvs2svn does not work with Python 3.x.) - A compatible database library, usually gdbm, and the corresponding Python bindings. Neither dumbdbm nor standard dbm is sufficient. Is there any way to find out if the needed database library is included or not? And if not how does one go about getting it? I have to install all tools on a "clean" Windows 2016 server x64 machine for the conversion. Oh! That brings up yet another point: On Windows Server 2016 it seems like Microsoft has included their web server (IIS), but I think that Apache is needed for SVN. How can one deal with that? Or is SVN a server all by itself? -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden
