How does one build svnimporter2? I've got a checkout of **/MIGKIT/trunk and would like to dive into the code and see if it's realistic to patch VSS pin/unpin functionality there. At some point, I'm going to need to build svnimporter2.
I saw "maven packed" in viewtopic.php?f=4&t=3072&hilit=how+to+build+svnimporter2+maven and tried that (total maven newbie, so copy-paste is all I can do with maven). However, that leads to missing dependencies, e.g.:
Trying to get missing dependencies (and updated snapshots) required by SVN Importer 2 - DONT BUILD ME:
- Attempting to download mevenide:maven-eclipse-plugin-plugin:0.4.0:plugin from http://repo1.maven.org/maven
22K downloaded
- Attempting to download eclipse:org.eclipse.core.runtime:3.0.0:jar from http://repo1.maven.org/maven
- Attempting to download eclipse:org.eclipse.osgi:3.0.0:jar from http://repo1.maven.org/maven
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>> The build cannot continue because of the following unsatisfied dependencies:
- eclipse:org.eclipse.core.runtime:3.0.0:jar (try downloading from http://eclipse.org/)
- eclipse:org.eclipse.osgi:3.0.0:jar (try downloading from http://eclipse.org/)
Has anyone successfully built svnimporter2 recently (i.e., in the last 2 years or so)? Does anyone have better maven config files?
If this is hard, does anyone have pointers to building svnimporter2 completely via eclipse (or ant)?
Hmmm, I unpacked the 0.6.1 zip file and I see the eclipse jars in there. I'll try that first. But if anyone has instructions for how to build it all via maven, I'd be very happy


Thanks for any pointers.
