I’m starting to realise I’m not the only person who ever found out how to install Wireshark. On a side note, I no longer ever use a public wi-fi hotspot without setting up a tunnel and letting all my traffic go through that. Tell SVN to route its traffic through privoxy.Start your local Privoxy, telling it to pass its traffic to the tunnel.Set up an ssh tunnel on the whitelisted remote server.Now a git svn fetch and a dcommit and we’re flying~! hooray! Stuck http-compression on too, because what the hell. Now, I don’t have any other SVN things going on, so I was happy enough to set it globally: Open ~/.subversion/servers in your favourite politically neutral editor. So I spend some time reading about getting git to use an http proxy, and try a bunch of things until I realise I’m a moron. Getting closer! % export http_proxy=' annnnnd…! nothing. To forward all traffic that uses the http proxy to pass off through the SSH tunnel. In my privoxy config, I set: forward-socks4 / localhost:2000. I chose Privoxy for my own private and mysterious reasons. So I decide to use a chaining proxy that presents as an HTTP proxy, and can pass off to a SOCKS. Things don’t go well for me in this hunt. Then I look into how to get git to push over a socks proxy. Then I open up my network settings over on the local side and tell gombuter to use SOCKS proxy on localhost:2000. D 2000 to set the local port for the dynamic forwarding. I used -C for ssh compression, to halp deal with the bad network. Then I recall that I can use SSH to create some kind of a sexy TUNNEL and push through that! Wear your lucky socks. I have a copy of the repo on the Linode, but it is out of date and I’ve made local changes and commited them and the connection is terrible and I keep losing connectivity and nothing about this seems tasty. Luckily when I was getting my IP address whitelisted, I also got them to whitelist the IP address of my Linode. URL access forbidden for unknown reason: access to ' forbidden at /usr/local/Cellar/git/1.8.0/lib/Git/SVN.pm line 717 URL access forbidden for unknown reason: access to ' forbidden at /usr/local/Cellar/git/1.8.0/lib/Git/SVN.pm line 148 So, first problem: Subversion hates your guts. No need to be in a warm comfy bed at home when you can come halfway across the world to live in a shoebox for a thousand dollars a night. When you work remotely, why work in any place in particular? Might as well be in a country full of nightmareish howling midnight jackal-dogs, hundreds upon thousands of hungry wild cats, upturned noses, sand and cheap wine. I did say holiday up there, but that’s not quite accurate. The gombuter the central subversion repo lives on is set up only to accept connections from a few whitelisted IP addresses. I think the router is perhaps closer to Australia than to this room. The hotel advertised free wi-fi available in “all rooms”. 1 Answer Sorted by: 3 You could use the RemoteForward option in your. I would really rather merge two branches with a magnet than with subversion. Subversion is a terrible piece of software. I thought perhaps we could burn everything. They say there’s nothing we can do about it.
